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.

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.

Step into the bustling world of Children’s Games, Pieter Bruegel’s captivating 1560 masterpiece that invites you on a journey through the lively streets of a 16th-century village. This vibrant painting is a playground of over 200 children, joyfully engaged in nearly 80 traditional games. As your eyes wander across the canvas, you’ll feel as though you’ve stepped into the very heart of the scene, surrounded by laughter, energy, and the timeless spirit of play.
Every corner of this work offers a new discovery. Turn to the foreground, and you’ll find children spinning tops, playing leapfrog, and rolling hoops. Venture further, and you’ll uncover more intricate scenes—each brimming with life and authenticity. Bruegel’s attention to detail captures not just the games themselves but the community spirit and ingenuity of youth, making this painting a vivid snapshot of Renaissance life.
What makes Children’s Games so remarkable is its dual appeal. On one level, it’s a joyful celebration of childhood play, a universal experience that transcends centuries. On another, it serves as a rich tapestry of cultural history, offering insights into the traditions and daily life of Bruegel’s time. Each game depicted is a glimpse into the past, a reminder of the creativity and camaraderie that defined an era.
Displayed today as part of the Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna, Children’s Games is more than a painting—it’s an open invitation to explore, imagine, and connect with history. Whether you’re an art enthusiast, a historian, or simply someone drawn to the vitality of life captured on canvas, this piece promises an unforgettable journey.
So, take a moment to pause and explore Bruegel’s world. Let the laughter, mischief, and charm of Children’s Gamestransport you to a bygone era where the simplicity of play told the story of a community. It’s an adventure not to be missed.
