The Drowning Tree, Australian Wetlands
The Drowning Tree, Australian Wetlands
‘I am attracted by the timeless and ever-changing place where the sea washes across the edge of land.
Coastal wetlands are used to tides ebbing and flowing. The trees that live beside them have adapted to the twice daily covering of their lower trunks.
Over the years that I have visited this place, the tides have become higher and eventually this tree and the many either side of it have succumbed.
The Drowning Tree, Salamander Bay, Port Stephens, Australia. #7717
Every picture I have made encapsulates the essence of my story. Whether it is intricate details, obscure abstracts, or expansive vistas, each piece is unique. The artistry in my archival, museum-quality prints is crafted to evoke emotion and capture moments in time.
This Limited Edition is available in three sizes, with a maximum of five prints plus up to two Artist Proofs.
The giclée prints are made on archival, museum-quality, cotton rag paper and can be supplied framed or rolled ready for your preferred framer.
Larger prints are sized to boldly dominate a wall. As I treat each scene individually, different pictures may have bespoke crop or form factors.
Foley Fine Art Prints are printed on either Ilford Prestige Galarie Smooth Cotton Rag or Hahnemühle Photo Rag heavyweight stock using state-of-the-art, museum-grade printers and archival inks. The fine art giclée prints, crafted with precision on a professional inkjet printer, are archival quality and guaranteed not to fade or bleed for up to 100 years, making them the industry standard in galleries and museums worldwide. The Paper Size allows for at least a 20mm white border around the image. The border may vary according to the picture's format. Contact me if you have any questions or special requests.
For Australian-based clients: If you choose one of the framing options, your giclée print will be dry-mounted to an acid-free 5 mm foam board using an archival adhesive film. It is then placed in a hand-crafted shadowbox frame made from FSC-certified Tasmanian Oak and protected by durable 3mm museum-grade plexiglass. The back of the frame is finished with framer’s tape and stainless steel hanging wire. A signed Certificate of Authenticity is supplied to be attached to the back of the frame.
‘I make photographs to hang on walls and be appreciated for lifetimes. The soft texture of these bright white papers is integral to how I want you to see and ‘feel’ my work.’
For transport reasons, square format prints can only be framed in the Medium (60x60cm) size. Larger prints should be taken to your local framer.

Room mock-up views are for guidance only. Where finished sizing is critical, it is recommended that the indicated paper sizes are measured in the room where the art will hang. Extra allowance should be made for matting and framing. A blank sheet of paper representing the finished size helps visualise if the chosen size suits the space.
