Endangered Emblems
Series : Wander Out Yonder
"In 2022 we travelled to the Dryandra Woodlands near Narrogin for the first time - to hopefully spot a Numbat or two... and we did! These charming little critters are hard to find, and now only live in a couple of places in WA. They were once commonly found thru out the South West and across Southern Australia they are now endangered as they are very susceptible to feral and domestic cats, living nearby - foxes and wedge tailed Eagles, bad forest management and fire. They are the emblem of WA and until very recently I'd never known how critical their number had become. Unbelievably you can just drive around in The Dryandra Woodland - very slowly and you might spot them digging for their only food - termites. The Red Tail Black Cockatoo is also critically endangered now as a result of land clearing, farming practices and sadly road kills".
Wander Out Yonder Series: This series has been created using painted paper collage. Fi first creates a mixture of colours and textured papers and then hand cuts the shapes, free hand, constructing the subjects from memory and sketchbook observations. She uses reference book photographs to correctly observe the birds she is studying. The original images are photographed and then reproduced.
Our print and photographic partners are locally owned and operated and support the highest quality product philosophy.
We use only high quality archival inks, some times known as Giclee prints and Canson fine art papers and canvas.
Custom sizes may be available in addition to sizes listed but it depends on the size of the original art work and the size of the digital file. Please enquire.
If you order your print on canvas, you will need to have it stretched and framed at your local picture framers. The surface has already been treated with a UV coating for extra protection. Your canvas will be rolled and posted to you.
A limited number are produced of between 20 and 200. These are produced on request. Each one is signed and numbered by hand. This is visible on the lower edge on the paper print, but is on the edge of the canvas and will not be visible when stretched.
Reproductions are NOT created in canvas at the same size as the original painting.
Each print is supplied with its own matching print certificate.
Prints over 50 cm in measurement are large format prints and are signed and come with a print certificate. Canvas prints are signed on the back .Smaller prints are not signed.
To facilitate stretching a boarder of plain canvas, or black canvas (on the Still @ Home series) is added to the image edge.
The paper prints measurements are given as image size and paper size in case you wish to have a larger space around your image before a mount window is laid on top.
Sizes shown in room setting images are for illustrative purposes only /not necessarily to scale.
Please check sizes with a tape measure before ordering, remembering that the framing you select will add to the size.
All prints are delivered to our studio where they are then checked and packed ready for postage.
All prints are carefully wrapped and rolled and protected and packed in a protective postage tube.
Postage including insurance within Australia is included in your purchase.

Our square print sizes on paper 25 x 25cm, 35 x 35cm, 50 x 50cm have been designed to suit standard off the shelf IKEA frames available world wide. In some cases having your own picture mount cut at a picture framers may be an option to frame a smaller uprint 'up' into a larger frame. We do however always recommend using a professional framer to secure the longevity and condition of your print sealed under glass.
