Shaw & Tenney Ambassador Lee Crosson has paddled all over the world, capturing the true essence of his trips through exceptional photography.
This contest features a beautiful signed print, by Lee, that was taken in July of 2016 on his trip to Second Machias Lake in our home state of Maine.
Lee’s S&T paddle of choice for this trip was our classic Maine Guide with a custom handle made to Lee’s spec. His Sassafras paddle and Mad River canoe are beautifully silhouetted against the lake and setting sun in this stunning limited edition print.
To match the beauty of the print, the craftsman at Shaw & Tenney handcrafted a frame from the historic reclaimed timber of Quakish Lake in Maine. The sunken wood, from log drives of yesteryear, provides an amazing story along with the stunning color of the wood. The harvested wood derives it rich and varied colors from the 100 – 400+ years spent in the cold dark Maine waters absorbing minerals and pigments below the water's surface.
For as long as we can remember, customers have been displaying their Shaw & Tenney oars and paddles in their homes. And while every oar and paddle is crafted and designed for life on the water, as craftsmen, we're honored that our customers appreciate our craft enough to consider it art.
The contest runs until Wednesday, September 7. Good luck!
