MISCELLANEOUS

Barks played many 'instruments' during his cartoon- and paintingtime. When not painting the real stuff on canvas and masonite he involved himself in nearly every means of expression known to him. Below follows a caleidoscope of works produced in watercolour, coal, crayon and pencil and they were made on different materials as paper, wood and tissue.
