For forty years, botanical artist Philippa

Nikulinsky has been sharing her love of wild places through her painting. Now in her first collaboration on a book with her husband Alex

Nikulinsky comes a very personal journey to Cape Arid, a remote

national park on the far south-eastern coast of Western Australia. This

book is the result of eleven field trips together, over four years,

covering all the seasons.

Husband-and-wife team Philippa and Alex Nikulinsky travel into isolated outback regions, often staying for months at a time, to paint the Australian bush.

Cape Arid National Park is a fascinating and remote area on the far south-eastern coast of Western Australia. Braving howling winds, grit, sleet, 43-degree heat and thousands of flies, the Nikulinskys travel rough sandy tracks to be rewarded by shimmering seas, islands and unique flora and fauna.

In Cape Arid, the Nikulinskys share the privilege of their experiences through finely detailed botanical watercolours, sweeping black and white landscapes and an intimate written record of their journeys.
