What print options do you offer?
We offer stretched canvas prints, floating-framed canvas prints, framed paper prints, rolled canvas prints, and paper prints, so you can choose the finish that best suits your room and budget. You can check this link to see more information about all the options.
Are your canvas prints made in Australia?
Yes — all Australian orders are professionally printed and finished in Australia using premium materials, with careful quality checks before dispatch. For orders outside of Australia, we print in either Europe or the U.S depending on where the order is going.
What quality are the prints?
We use premium large-format printers with archival inks designed for strong colour depth, sharp detail, and long-lasting durability. You can check this page for more information about the equality. We use a premium-grade, archival 100% cotton, 390 gsm textured canvas for all canvas prints.
Will the colours look exactly like the screen?
Colours are printed as accurately as possible, but slight variations can occur because screens display colour differently from printed material. We can't control your screen settings, but we work to ensure the print matches the original exactly.
How long does delivery take?
Most orders are produced quickly and dispatched within 2-5 business days, paper prints and rolled canvas will be dispatched the fastest for obvious reasons, followed by stretched canvas prints and then floating frames and framed prints as they take slightly longer to manufacture.

Delivery times depending on your location in Australia. Our normal turnaround for delivery (from placing the order to receiving the artwork) - is within 8 days. priority service speeds this up. We print in Noosa and Perth, giving us coverage on both the east and west coasts. Check this page for more accurate time frames for all locations.
What if I need help choosing the right size?
If unsure, choose the size that best suits your wall space, or contact us and we can help suggest what usually works best for your room.
What printer and inks do you use?
We print using Canon imagePROGRAF PRO large-format printers, chosen specifically for their exceptional colour accuracy, sharp detail, and consistency across both fine art and photographic work. These professional printers are paired with archival Canon LUCIA 12-colour pigment inks, a premium ink system designed to produce rich tonal depth, smooth gradients, and highly accurate colour reproduction, particularly in subtle shades and complex artwork. The 12-colour ink set allows for a much wider colour range than standard printing systems, helping us achieve deeper blacks, cleaner neutrals, and more natural transitions in everything from bold contemporary designs to delicate fine art prints. Just as importantly, these pigment-based inks are archival quality, meaning they are designed for long-term durability and excellent resistance to fading when properly displayed. We use one of the highest-quality professional printing systems available because it lets us produce artwork that looks impressive when you first receive it and keeps its depth, clarity, and colour integrity over time.
Is the artwork ready to hang?
Yes — stretched canvas, floating framed canvas,and framed prints arrive ready to hang straight on the wall. Please note that overseas orders, particularly to the US, may require fittings to be attached. They are included.
What happens if my print arrives damaged?
If anything arrives damaged, simply contact us with photos, and we will arrange a replacement promptly.
Do you offer custom sizes for your prints?
Yes, absolutely. We will be more than happy to create custom sizes for any of the artworks you see on the website. Feel free to contact us with the exact size you need, and we will provide a quote.
Am I able to come to your office to collect the artwork directly to save time and shipping
Absolutely, you are more than welcome to come to either of our facilities in Noosa, QLD, or Booragoo, Perth, WA. Please do, however, give us a call before coming so we can make sure someone is out front. We spend a lot of time out back around noisy machinery, so the front desk is not always manned.
Will I receive a proof for personalised art, and can I make changes
es — for all personalised artwork, we always send a digital proof before anything goes to print so you can see exactly how your design will look first. This gives you the chance to check wording, layout, colours, spelling, dates, locations or any other personal details before production begins. Proofs are usually sent within 48 hours of ordering, and very often much sooner, depending on the design and the time the order is placed. We know personalised artwork often carries important meaning, so we want customers to feel completely confident before the final print is produced. You are also very welcome to request changes once you receive the proof. In fact, we encourage it. If there is anything you would like adjusted, whether a small wording change or a more noticeable layout tweak, we encourage it. We continue refining the design until you are 100% happy with the result. Nothing is printed until you have approved the proof, which means you can order knowing there is still a chance to fine-tune the artwork before it is made.

We are an Australian-based business that uses premium-grade materials, professional large-format printing, and carefully selected finishes so that every piece feels like something made to last rather than mass-produced.

More Information about the Artwork / Artist

Banksy, the elusive and provocative street artist, is celebrated for his ability to merge powerful social commentary with striking visuals. His art often challenges authority, consumerism, and war, making him one of the most influential artists of our time. While much of Banksy’s work appears simple at first glance, it often carries deeper messages about political and societal issues. His technique of using stencils allows for quick execution, enabling him to produce bold and visually arresting images in urban spaces worldwide. His anonymity only enhances the mystique of his work, turning each piece into both a visual statement and a public conversation.

One such artwork, “Behind the Curtain,” is a lesser-known but equally impactful piece from Banksy’s collection. This artwork depicts a pair of hands pulling back curtains, revealing a plain, dull wall behind them. It plays with the idea of deception and hidden truths, a common theme in Banksy’s repertoire. The imagery evokes a sense of anticipation as if something significant is about to be revealed, only to expose a disappointing reality. This can be interpreted as a commentary on how societal and political powers often disguise the truth or distract the public from underlying issues.

“Behind the Curtain” is thought to critique the illusion of transparency in governance, media, or corporate systems. The notion of pulling back a curtain to expose something mundane rather than enlightening suggests that what lies beneath the surface is not always what we expect or hope to see. The minimalist nature of the image emphasizes Banksy’s ability to convey profound messages through deceptively simple compositions. His work often reflects this tension between appearance and reality, encouraging viewers to question what they are told and to look deeper into the issues facing society.

This piece continues to resonate as a relevant symbol of skepticism in the modern world, especially in an age of misinformation and media manipulation. As with much of Banksy’s work, “Behind the Curtain” challenges audiences to look beyond the surface and to consider the narratives that are presented to them. It’s a powerful reminder that what is hidden or obscured from view often holds the most significant truth.
