    My name is Churchill Clark. I took an incredible journey to honor my 4th-Great Grandfather, William Clark, during the Lewis & Clark Bicentennial. In the middle of re-tracing his journey, 200 years later, I found a new life. I knew I wasn't going to be truly happy in "town" anymore! I really had no idea where this would take me... I STILL don't! I simply follow the trees, and help them on their transformational journeys. In the process, I, too, am transformed. So are many others! This is what I call "Dugout Canoe Magic." It's real. I want to spread it as far and wide as I can! My goal is to work with  schools, Tribes, museums and historical societies, carving DUGOUT CANOES all over the country! I really enjoy doing festivals, as well! If I can sell one or two of these rare pieces of "functional art" per year, I should be able to pay my bills. I just want to share the DUGOUT CANOE LOVE!

A day in the life on my Lewis & Clark adventure! I took this shot from the Banana Boat, built by Lee Gilbert, and Lee Guthrie (Lee Squared). In the distance are two of John Ruskey's creations, Mato Chante and the Flying Eagle... pine and cedar, respectively. Mato was the first canoe I worked on.

The magnificent Banana Boat... the first DUGOUT CANOE I ever paddled! Lee Gilbert and Lee Guthrie made this fine canoe in the Twin Cities. They gave us the honor of paddling her up and down the Missouri. They don't know what they started!!!
