C. D. Clarke uses the highest quality art materials. His oil paintings are made on the finest gessoed linen mounted with acid free glue on coated ¼ inch plywood panels. Panels are much safer than stretched canvas for field work. Oil paintings made in the field are small, about 9 by 12 inches. Watercolors made in the field are made on the finest 14 by 20 inch Arches watercolor paper.
When working in the studio, C. D. uses traditionally stretched canvas. Studio works are larger, ranging in size from 9 by 12 inches to 36 by 40 inches and up. Studio watercolors can be larger as well, up to 28 by 40 inches.

C. D. 's originals and prints are avidly collected by noted sportsmen all over the world including ESPN's Flip Pallot; TV host Andy Mill; Orvis Company owner Leigh Perkins; businessman, author and philanthropist Bob Rich; super guides Paul Dixon, Brian Horsely and Tim Klein; and many, many others.
