She believed she could, so she did. - Limited Edition Unframed Print
Each year I aim to release a birthday piece that encapsulates all the joy and hope I feel for the future. This peachy one has taken over 34 hours to complete and was painted with two little lines of text in mind.
Gray’s classic, ‘she believed she could, so she did’ and a line from a Fulton Lee song, ‘I’ve been sitting at the beachside looking for peace, I thought that I would find it here right away…but if I stick around I’m bound to find it someday.’
Almost 3 years since moving to our little seaside town and it’s only now that I’m feeling peaceful and settled. It’s been a big year of divorcing myself from a lot of the arbitrary metrics of ‘success’ the world seems to scream at us and asking myself ‘but what do I actually want? What actually brings me joy?’ …and doing more of those things.
More letting the kids come in to our bed in the middle of the night for cuddles.
More yoga.
More evenings with friends.
More sitting by sea and daydreaming and giggling whilst the kids run on the sand.
More dancing in the kitchen.
More singing loudly in the car.
I hope this piece reminds you to take more time for those little moments, too, and to embrace them wholeheartedly when you find them.

Artwork information
Fine art reproductions (prints) are printed on the very best archival cotton rag or archival stretched canvas as chosen by you by a small family firm in Brisbane. All of my cotton paper prints are inclusive of a 1cm white border and fit straight into standard frames or are easily custom-framed without losing any of the image, and the stretched canvas prints and originals can be put straight on the wall as they are ready to hang.
Our canvas prints come with a mirrored edge for a wrapped look or a plain edge if the background colour of the artwork is a block colour.
As with all new arrivals, we’d love to see you celebrate it properly. We suggest popping some champagne and taking a picture once it’s hanging on your wall.
We’d love to see your celebrations. You can tag us on Instagram @thenewdevine or send your snaps to us by replying to your order email.
Our favourite store-bought frames can be found on framing guide, and more framing information can be found on our FAQ page. Or, as with any question, please feel free to get in touch so we can help you perfect a room with your new art.
Shipping - We post on Tuesdays and Fridays.
Australian Standard Shipping is Free or you can choose express for $10. International flat rate shipping is $25. We post most orders on the following Tuesday or Friday, however there are some exceptions:
A1 and A0 artworks are printed to order as are all stretched canvas artworks. Please allow an extra 5-10 business days for printing in addition to standard Australia Post delivery estimates. We often have things ready MUCH sooner but sometimes, our printer is overwhelmed with our orders so please be patient if your new art takes a little longer to arrive. We promise it will be worth it.
Original Artworks: We very carefully varnish originals and pack them incredibly well once they are sold. Seamus is in charge of all of that and he’s meticulous - he used to work on gas rigs so when it comes to safety and attention to detail? He doesn’t compromise. It can sometimes take him a whole day to pack an original depending on the size with his unique system so you can imagine if we sell a couple of originals all at once he gets very busy! An extra couple of days for careful packing is absolutely worth it for a safe delivery of your art, though. Expect a week or so between ordering your original and it being posted. I promise it will be worth it.
Copyright and reproductions
Purchase of any The New Devine original artwork or art product (including reproductions) does not entitle the purchaser to make further copies—the copyright remains with the artist.
Framing
Please note all prints are sold unframed.
Images above are examples only and have been included to give you a squiz at how beautiful the work looks when framed.
We produce our prints to fit standard store-bought frames but we do recommend professional framing to improve the longevity and quality of your piece.
