Thoughtful and Unique Art Gifts

Our mums deserve the best. For most part, they see the beauty in all things in life (even in our paint and pasta art creations we glued together for her back in early childhood).

Now, many years later, we can give the gift of art once again – this time treating Mum to some of Australia’s most collectable artwork. These paintings feature beautiful scenes, luxury paints and contemporary frames (she will love her new art so much she may even replace the early childhood pasta creation – but it’s a risk worth taking).

If you’d like some gift ideas this year’s Mother’s Day, we’ve curated a little collection below of some popular pieces.

Starting with a lusciously textured canvas by Australian artist Sally West.
