Artwork story

Garden Party began with many of the same leaves and natural fragments as The Foraged, but the bright pink Allamanda bells shifted the feeling entirely. These flowers did not belong to the native wilderness; they belonged to the planted, tended landscape of gardens and backyards. Together, the pieces began to feel like a cross-section of the neighbourhood — familiar greenery made festive, as though an ordinary place had dressed itself for company.

I worked quickly to photograph the flowers before they wilted, then arranged the gathered elements into a repeating pattern. None of them exist now in the form they did that day. What remains is a record of one place at one moment: cultivated, abundant and caught before the garden moved on.

Print Details

Each artwork is printed on Ilford GALERIE Prestige Smooth Pearl, 310gsm, a heavyweight photographic paper with a softly lustrous semi-gloss finish.

I chose this paper for the way it holds fine photographic detail and rich colour while keeping reflections softer than a high-gloss print.

Fine Art Prints that include a white border are designed that way as part of the artwork presentation. The selected size refers to the full dimensions of the printed sheet, including the border.
Framing Details

Framed works are handmade in Sydney and arrive ready to hang.

Choose from Black, White or Natural Oak. Each frame has a clean gallery-style profile measuring 2 cm wide × 4 cm deep.

The artwork is protected behind UV-resistant Shinkolite Perspex and backed with 5 mm acid-free adhesive foamcore.

The work is presented without a mat, allowing the image to sit cleanly within the frame. Where a white border is included, it forms part of the artwork itself and is not a framing option.
Shipping & Returns

Each Fine Art Print is made to order in Sydney, with free standard delivery Australia-wide.

As a guide, allow approximately 1–2 weeks for metro areas, 2–3 weeks for regional areas, and 3–4 weeks for WA, NT and TAS. Tracking is provided once your order has been dispatched.

Because each print is made specifically for your order, I don’t generally accept returns or exchanges for change of mind.

If your artwork arrives damaged, faulty or incorrect, please contact me as soon as possible with your order number and photos of the artwork and packaging. I’ll work with you to arrange the appropriate remedy.
