Foggy Osage Orange Tunnel No. 3
The Story: Within Sugarcreek MetroPark near Bellbrook, Ohio, lies this natural wonder, the Osage Orange Tunnel. Before barbwire fences were available, farmers would plant rows of Osage Orange Trees that became natural fence lines. On this foggy, autumn morning, the arched branches offered hikers moody views of this unique living tunnel.
The Rest of the Story: I’ve previously explored this park on sunny fall mornings and evenings. On this morning walk, the thick still air added to the mood. For this print, I wanted to explore using the Orton Effect which was named after Michael Orton where the scene takes on a dreamy effect. Historically, this was done by blending images which entailed a slight out-of-focus blend. In all, what is bright is typically overly bright and has a slightly soft focus.
Sublocation: Sugarcreek MetroPark

Paired Prints: Sometimes a print naturally pairs with another. Frequently, I’ve captured an image from the same location but under varying lighting conditions or during a different time of year. If you like this art print, you may also want to view:
Accolades:
- 2022 the 32nd annual Dayton-area Works on Paper exhibition, Rosewood Gallery, Kettering, Ohio. One of Two Juried prints (54 accepted) from 200 submissions. This print won an award and serves as the exhibit’s featured print.
- 2024 a client shared she was contemplating buying a painting of a wooded pathway. In fact, she was regretting not making that purchase, when she discovered one of my Sugarcreek MetroPark posts on social media. She’s a frequent park visitor and was fond of walking through Dayton’s tree tunnel. For her, she was able to blend the aesthetics of a forest footpath with a park that she cherishes.

Framed Giclee Canvas Prints
My canvas prints originate from the highest quality equipment and techniques which produce an impressively vibrant and sturdy print. Features of My Framed Giclee Canvas Prints include:
- Light Weight: Lacking the need of glass and matting, these canvas prints are light weight
- More Print for Your Money: Avoiding expensive glass and matting lowers costs
- Archival: The pigment inks are archival rated at 95 years
- No Gallery-wrapped Hazards: My framed giclee canvas prints avoid the hazards of traditional gallery wrapped canvas prints (print edges easily mar and the canvas tends to relax and warp). My canvas is mounted to a solid surface so it will never warp and the outer frame protects the print’s edges.
- Ready to Hang. Your canvas print comes ready to hang with single wire fastened to two sturdy D-ring hangers (quality D-rings resist wire tension vice eye hooks). We employ a plastic-coated wire which mitigates corrosion, prevents stray strands from puncturing a finger, and permits easier leveling of frame. In paying attention to details, we also properly wire frame with some tension which ensures canvas hangs close to wall.
- Optional Z-bar: For larger prints (if requested), we employ a two-piece mounting cleat in lieu of a hanging wire. In this option, the cleat attached to the back of the print fits securely over the reverse cleat that you attached to the wall.
- Watermark: The final print you receive will not have a watermark.
- Documentation: I attached a certificate of authenticity to the back of each print.
- Large Canvas Prints: Though I can produce prints up to 40 x 60 inches, shipping in sizes 30 x 45 inches and above is expensive. If you live in the Miami Valley, reach out to me about obtaining access to these larger print sizes.
- Shipping Times: Creating the print takes about 2 weeks and can be ready for immediate local pick up. For those outside the Miami Valley, I have dedicated boxes and shipping takes an additional 3 to 5 days.
Photopaper Prints
People are amazed by these metal prints…from the reactions I witness at art shows and exhibitions, I call them “eye candy”. Dye sublimation prints offer the following characteristics:
- Archival: Our printer employs verified archival materials, where the pigments are rated at 95 years provided the print is protected from UV Rays.
- Flexibility: Ordering a print on photopaper allows clients to make their own framing and matting decisions for the ultimate customization experience.
- Watermark: The final print you receive will not have a watermark.
- Documentation: I include a certificate of authenticity with each print. Once you frame the print, your framer can attach it to the rear of the print.
- Final Product: I have dedicated shipping tubes to hold the print until your framer is ready to mount and frame the print.
- Shipping Times: Creating the print takes about 2 weeks and can be ready for immediate local pick up. For those outside the Miami Valley, I have dedicated shipping tubes which take an additional 3 to 5 days for shipping.
