You Me We
Series : Still At Home
"This was the first painting in the series to incorporate Magpies. I love them for their symbolic strength and their sense of territory and loyalty when it comes to protecting their family - I also just love the dynamic black and white aesthetic they bring.
It took me a while to work out how the different plants I'd chosen to depict, were going to l look in my images - the addition of birds came as a new direction for the series, once I had the confidence to understand and recognise my hand at work, this was followed by the addition of more personal items from my own collections.
Birds in my work can represent many things, in this piece they speak of the closeness a bonded pair have, the strength that comes from this kind of teamwork and of the unity found in their beliefs actions and intentions, that sometimes allow the two individuals to be as one".
Noongar word for Magpie: Koorlbardi. Magpie (bird) Koorliny. Action word as in come, coming, going, walking.
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.
