About At One With Nature Art

At One With Nature Art was born from a lifelong love of animals and the land they call home.

Each illustration is a quiet conversation-
a reminder that we share this world, not rule it.

Through detailed pastel and mixed-media artworks, I celebrate Australia’s native species-
from the smallest bettong to the boldest cockatoo.
My goal is to inspire understanding
and protect what is precious,
one drawing at a time.

I believe art has the power to reconnect us with the natural world.

Every piece I create carries a story of coexistence and care- an invitation to slow down, look closer
and feel that quiet thread that ties us all together.

Whether you’re a fellow artist.a conservationist, or simply someone who feels at home in the wild,

welcome.

Here,

We’re all At One with Nature Art.

THE GREATNESS OF A NATION

JUDGED BY THE WAY

ITS ANIMALS ARE TREATED

Help raise awareness.

Australia’s unique flora and fauna are under serious threat from the ongoing loss of native habitats. Every hectare of forest cleared chips away at the delicate ecosystems that countless species depend on for survival. Iconic creatures like the Leadbeater’s possum and the Wollemi pine face shrinking safe havens, pushing them closer to extinction.

My illustrations aim to shed light on these critical issues, using innovative visual storytelling to connect people with the beauty and fragility of Australia’s natural heritage.

By raising awareness through art, we inspire conservation efforts that can halt and even reverse the impact of deforestation.

Protecting these endangered plants and animals isn’t just about preserving biodiversity; it’s about safeguarding the intricate web of life that sustains us all. Every brushstroke brings the message home: conservation is a shared responsibility, and urgent action is needed now.
Unique plants and animals, and the need for conservation.

But with the help of some unlikely allies, they can escape danger and find a new home that provides them with safety and sanctuary. The story emphasises the importance of conservation efforts and the need to protect endangered animals like the Spotted-tailed Quolls, showcasing the impact of human actions on their survival. Overall, this touching and inspiring story will leave a lasting impression on readers of all ages.

As an advocate for Australian endangered species, I strive to give a voice to these remarkable creatures teetering on the brink of extinction.

Australia's unique biodiversity is a source of national pride and a critical part of our planet's ecological balance.

From the iconic koalas and kangaroos to lesser-known species like the numbat and the bilby, each holds a vital role within their respective ecosystems.

Speaking on behalf of these endangered species, I aim to raise awareness about their threats and the urgent need for conservation efforts. Through education, advocacy, and collaboration, I hope to inspire others to join the fight to protect Australia's precious wildlife and ensure their survival for future generations.

HELP SAVE OUR SPECIES

As we look around, we can observe that the world is changing rapidly. Many animal species are facing extinction as a result of human activities, climate change, and habitat loss. It is heartbreaking to witness a situation in which our actions are causing harm to our fellow living beings.

But we still have time to take action and help save our species.

There is still time to make a difference. Each of us is responsible for making the necessary changes to save these species.

Here are some ways we can help:

1. Reduce, Reuse, Recycle: One of the most significant impacts humans have on nature is the amount of waste we produce. We can significantly reduce our negative environmental impact by reducing our waste, reusing items, and recycling.

2. Support conservation efforts: Many organisations worldwide work tirelessly to protect and conserve vulnerable species. Consider supporting these organisations financially or through volunteering.

3. Be an ethical consumer: Be mindful of the products you buy. Make sure they do not contribute to the harm of vulnerable species. Support companies that have moral and sustainable practices.

4. Educate yourself and others: Stay informed about the species and their current status. Educate others to promote awareness and encourage them to take action.
5. Climate change is one of the biggest threats to our planet and its species.
We need to consider the effects of human activities on the environment and take steps to protect the habitats of vulnerable species.

We all have a role to play in saving our species. It is our responsibility to take action and make a change. Let us join together and work towards a better future for all living beings on our planet.

Thank you for considering being part of rescuing our future.

Much love from
