ABOUT THIS PIECE
Wild Portraits forms this collection of quiet, reverential honourings in graphite of wild beings - in all their various beauty. These drawings have been crafted with curiosity and compassion for each individual being studied, and with the intention of supporting wildlife rescue in their honour. This is a collection that I do not see as ever becoming complete, but one that I can add to with joy and anticipation over decades to come. Each piece allows me to connect deeply to the wild being I am studying, to shapeshift into them, and to set my wild heart free. More importantly, though, n moving pigment around on paper I make this offering to you, so that you too can embody the grace, wisdom and freedom of the wild, and set your own wild heart free with them.
I am honoured to share this elegant piece with you to frame behind glass and hang in a special place in your home. I hope it inspires heartfelt connection and compassion each time you pass by.
Please do not touch the original artwork with bare hands, you may inadvertently transfer oils from your skin that will mark the artwork.
SHIPPING INFORMATION
Your artwork will ship from Australia and shipping time varies. Unless specifically stated otherwise, your piece will leave my studio within a few days, via Australia Post (and then their international partners). Shipping in Australia and to New Zealand usually arrives within a week. International packages are a bit outside of my control. If you have not received your order after 6 weeks, please get in touch.
Border fees, duties, and handling fees may be charged by other countries, and are the responsibility of the purchaser.
Tracking is also quite unreliable with international shipments. You will receive tracking information so you can follow your piece (as best they update it!) as it flies across oceans and lands far and wide!. If you would prefer a courier, local pick up, or other shipping method, please get in touch.
WHITE-GLOVE PACKAGING
Your original artworks are sent in protective packaging designed to keep them safe and damage-free.
After opening your package and having your heart filled with delight, if you are called to, please share your thoughts and photos of where you hang your artwork - I would love to see! Tag me on Instagram, or email me directly.
