Frequently Asked Questions

Are your artworks original?

Do you offer art prints? .

Yes. A selection of artworks is available as gallery-quality fine art prints. Depending on the collection, prints may be available as open editions or limited editions.

 We use trusted print partners in Australia, UK, USA and Canada and where possible, we shipped direct from those countries depending on the clients address. 

What is the difference between an original artwork and a print? .

An original artwork is a one-of-a-kind piece created by hand using mixed media, acrylics, natural pigments and other materials. 

 Fine art prints are high-quality reproductions of original artworks produced using archival inks and papers or canvas.

 Limited edition prints are signed and numbered, while open edition prints are not limited in quantity.

What is Ocean Alchemy™?

Ocean Alchemy™ is Olivia Alexander’s signature artistic process inspired by the colours, movement and energy of Australia’s coastal landscapes. Many works incorporate multiple translucent layers, natural pigments, metallic leaf, polished shell and mixed media elements to create depth, texture and subtle shifts in light.

Are all of your artworks part of the Ocean Alchemy collection?

Ocean Alchemy™ is the foundation of much of Olivia’s work, however she also creates collections inspired by estuaries, reefs, coastal landscapes, botanical forms and the colours found in nature. Each collection explores a different aspect of Australia’s natural beauty while remaining connected through her distinctive layered style.
