The Better Place - Limited Edition Unframed Print
- Category: Shop Exclusive Prints
An iconic The New Devine piece to celebrate my 32nd birthday, we are releasing a limited edition of just 32 prints of this piece. Each piece will come signed and numbered with a certificate of authenticity.
Due to the sizes made available, each print will be made to order. Please allow up to two weeks (often much quicker!) for your exclusive print to be made just for you before being posted.
The Better Place is all about our family farm in Ireland. Most of the family live within 500m of each other in a tiny historical township called Altananum that no longer strictly exists on real maps. It has been consumed by bigger places in theory but in practice it remains very much an isolated ‘home place’ that has been held by my husband’s family for more than 400 years. I can’t even begin to imagine 400 years, can you?
Our Ireland isn’t the one of story books or dark hedges or Hollywood sets. It isn’t expensive, lush ground - it’s steep hills and wild flowers and hard graft and simple living and more sunshine than any part of Ireland has any respectable right to have. Our Ireland is a place where 20 farmers pack into a tiny kitchen at the end of the day to share a meal and laugh then drink copious cups of tea and disappear into the dusk as quickly and quietly as they arrived. It’s a place of tractor driving and sheep shearing and fence repairing and more than anything - a place where everyone helps each other and kindness matters most.
It’s a better place than most. Not the prettiest or the richest…but the kindness and love in that place make it so.

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.

GST is included in the purchase price listed. If ordering outside of Australia, you may also be responsible for import taxes imposed by your country on your items as they are sent internationally DDU (Delivery Duty Unpaid.)
