DescriptionTitle: "Tobey" Original medium: Sumi on tannin-stained watercolour paper Size: 151.4cm x 66cm (artwork area 146.4cm x 61cm) Print medium: Pigment-based inkjet on 320gsm archival cotton rag Artist's noteI've had the pleasure of creating another image of that most recognisable of tattoo motifs, the dragon. This dragon hereby named Tobey, in memory of my dog and for his small contribution to the painting. I enjoy creating pieces that feel relatable to the viewer, and I wanted to give Tobey a strong sense of presence and beckoning. I find that painting at larger sizes lends itself to those effects. Tobey invites his audience into the black as he meanders, traipses, and weaves through his medium while provoking them to stare back. His size also has the ability to fill up a large area of wall, or a door, in a meaningful and impactful way. About the print Giclée printing is a technique that reproduces art of exceptional quality. It is a skilled process involving specialized equipment, software and pigment-based inks, to ensure a print that is true to the original artwork in its ability to accurately capture fine details and colours. We have chosen a Melbourne-based printer that uses the highest quality archival-grade inks and papers to produce images that will last for years to come. Each beautiful museum-grade print is carefully rolled and packaged in a protective tube, and will require approximately a 1 week lead-time to be ready for shipping from the time you place your order.

The US has imposed a 10 per cent baseline tariff on most imported goods, effective 9 April 2025. Most goods originating in Australia are subject to this tariff on import into the US, which we have worked into the rate of our shipping costs, which is why you will notice a higher shipping rate than previously. Every other country's policy on import duties, customs and taxes is different. Please be informed of your country's policies on importing goods from overseas, as usually, orders over a certain threshold will be subject to fees upon delivery. Unfortunately, we have no control over these fees, as this is determined by each country's customs office.
