Artwork story

As I was composing Rubble Garden, I was imagining the tranquility and peace I've found at the edge of jungles rockpools - fresh, vibrant and full of small life.  

I made this image as a challenge to myself: to take only what I could find in a neglected rubble garden bed and build a still life in the studio that felt alive again. Once gathered and rearranged, the elements seemed to recover something, becoming a small landscape of its own: fresh, persistent and quietly alive.

Ironically, the garden bed was actually filled with rocks right after this! I can't help but wonder if the landlords spotted me happily foraging around on camera.

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.
