DH Day Farm, 1924

Located just south of Glen Haven, Michigan on M-109, the massive Queen-Anne style white barn stands today as a landmark of the heritage of Sleeping Bear County and the Sleeping Bear National Lakeshore. David Henry Day had the barn, house, and three out-buildings built in the late 1880s and early 1890s. One out-building was a pig barn, one the creamery, and the third, the bull barn. D.H. Day grew hay and corn to feed his 400 hogs and prize herd of two hundread pure-bred Holstein cows. By the 1920s an orchard of 5000 cherry trees also grew there. The magnificent 116-foot-long dairy barn, with its poured concrete silo, octagonal cupolas, bell roofs with slightly flared eaves and french curves, is both picturesque and functional to this day.

All limited-edition prints are signed and include, backing board and plastic sleeve for their protection. These are high quality digital copies of my original artwork.  I scan my original artwork and produce digital prints using pigment-based inks, not dyes, on 60 lb. (acid free, fiber based) archival paper using an Epson P600 printer.  When you purchase one of my prints of my original artwork, you are buying a product that I produced (scanned, printed, signed, and packaged) entirely myself.  I try to provide prints that look as much like the original artwork as possible.
