If you live in Gold Coast or Brisbane, pick up option is available to save on freight costs. International customers are responsible for import tax & fees due upon delivery. **

We recommend "Unstretched" Canvas for our Interstate & International customers to save cost on freight/delivery.  This does mean once you have received your unstretched canvas, it is recommended to take it to your local art or picture framer to have it carefully stretched over a preassembled timber frame so it is ready to hang straight on the wall.

✔️ Our printers print on a heavy weight, fine weave archival canvas and seal with an Australian made archival UV sealant. Under accelerated longevity testing in the USA this sealed canvas has been awarded an archival life in excess of 100 years. Please allow 10 business days for your order and extra time for delivery depending on your location. 

"PRECIOUS DAUGHTERS" ARTWORK STATEMENT
2019 was the first time I returned to Samoa since I was 3 years old as I used to live there for a short time with my parents and siblings. Driving through Apia town, there were billboards of Taupou everywhere. It is an honour for young girls to be chosen as a taupou (ceremonial hostess) they are selected by a high chief of a Samoan village to undertake the formal reception and entertainment of visitors. They dance with honour & grace and represent a family’s pride and joy.
