During his childhood, maker Doug Jackson would spend hours with his grandmother painting in oils or drawing in pencil. While his passions began to shift to hockey and other sports as he grew, his love for doodling never left his system. After years as a graphic designer and cartographer, Doug let his passions run wild with Manmade Art.
His collection features beautiful prints of sporting teams, cottaging, and Canadian-made inventions, which are all big sellers due to there being a massive void for great art in those genres. Manmade Art is an important figure in the Ottawa maker community, with part of every sale going to fight cancer and heart disease.

A visual interpretation of the Tragically Hip’s classic "Ahead by a Century". From the artist...
"Our ‘Ahead by a Century’ art print offers a simple, visual interpretation of the Tragically Hip’s 1996 classic song from their Trouble at the Henhouse album. I've always been amazed by The Hip's lyrics and their ability to attack the concept of love from an abstract, poetic angle. Everyone interprets their lyrics a little differently, but I've always felt the tune was about a childhood sweetheart relationships going sour. As we grow up, we change and grow apart, and sometimes it takes a major crisis to show us our differences. When it happens, it suddenly becomes real that the other is way ahead and already moved on."
This art print makes a great addition to any Tragically Hip fan’s collection or any art lover that appreciates musically-inspired artwork for their home.

Our Ottawa Senators-Inspired heritage hockey art print captures the history of the return of one of the NHL's earliest teams. The original Ottawa Senators, founded in 1883, won 11 Stanley Cups before falling on hard economic times during the height of the Great Depression. They closed their doors in 1934, but in 1992, the franchise made its return to the NHL, and to the hearts of the people of Ottawa.
The Ottawa Senators-Inspired heritage edition hockey art print draws on aspects of the team's modern history while connecting it to the past. The large 'O' graphic and the red, off-white and black barber pole stripes are features of the team's jerseys before their demise in the 1930s. They're also prominent features of one of the team's most successful modern-day jersey designs. A rendering of the Ottawa Civic Centre, the first home of the new Senators, is tucked into the center of the print behind 1930s era hockey sticks, while elements from the team's first proposed logo appear on a puck above.
This unique art print makes a great addition to any Sens, or NHL sports art enthusiast's collection.
Show your love for our hometown team with this beautifully designed Ottawa Senators hockey print!

Canoe and paddle building dates back thousands of years. It's remarkable to see how little has changed over millennia in the design and profiles of both. You don't have to be an avid boater to instantly recognize their distinctive shapes from afar. Whether you are a canoeist or not, images like these can conjure up a connection to the past or pique your interest in cottage related themes.
The artist was inspired by the evolution of canoe and paddle design and how it's been almost glacial-like... it's hard to perfect perfection. With so little change in the basic designs over time, craftsmen turned to new materials and modifications to profiles as a way of customizing and perfecting their work. This print was inspired by the evolution of design and materials that the artist has witnessed and some of his favorites in both canoe and paddle design.
If you love the look of canoes and paddles, this print is for you. It makes a great addition to any cottage or home decor.
