This finely detailed woodblock print captures the delicate beauty of the daisy-like flowers of olearia semidentata, a tree that I stumbled upon during an artist residency on the Isle of Skye. I had never seen anything quite like it before and was intrigued to learn that it is native to New Zealand. I'm not sure how it found its way to Skye, but it may have been brought back by the property's previous owner, an Admiral, from his travels.

What you'll love about this print:

Balletic grace in bloom – The delicate, daisy-like flowers bring a sense of movement and charm to your space.
A botanical curiosity – Inspired by a rare discovery on the Isle of Skye, this print celebrates nature’s unexpected wonders.
Elegant craftsmanship – Fine lines and soft colours echo the refined subtlety of Japanese kachō-e prints.
Timelessly framed – The optional thin black frame enhances the artwork’s delicate aesthetic.
A unique handmade piece – Due to the traditional woodblock process, each print has slight variations that add to its character.

Is this an original, or a reproduction print?

This is a hand-made original woodblock print, meticulously crafted by me in my Kirkcudbright studio. I carved the design into blocks of wood and printed from those blocks onto soft, fluffy Japanese paper with archival pigment inks to create this keepsake artwork - make it yours to treasure for years to come.

How big is it?

If you're buying an unframed print the size refers to the overall size of the mount.

If you're choosing a framed print, the size refers to the glass size. The width of the frame moulding will add a couple of centimetres each way to the final dimensions.

What type of paper is it printed on?

The paper for this print is Japanese kanoko - a beautifully soft, fluffy paper with a warm, creamy tone. The inks are water-based pigment inks of archival quality for longevity.

Does it come with the mount?

Yes! The double bevel-cut mount is included in both the unframed and framed versions.

How is it packed for posting?

Unframed prints are sent in a protective sleeve within a rigid cardboard mailing envelope.

Framed prints are packaged with protective bubble and/or cardboard for safe transit.

Is the packaging eco friendly?

All packaging is as environmentally friendly as possible, and can be reused or recycled.

What are the delivery costs and timescales?

No extra shipping costs are added at check out - the price you see is the price you pay! Usual delivery time is within 1 week. Hand-made prints are created, mounted and framed in my studio. Unframed versions are usually in stock, ready to send out to you. Framed versions may not be immediately available, so could take upto 2/3 weeks to arrive. I will be in touch to advise of a delivery timescale once you've placed your order.
