Nīkau, Looking Across

Three nīkau crowns under a held night sky: a low moon, four ochre stars, teal crownshafts, vermilion berry clusters hanging beneath. One half of the night pair with Kererū, the Dive. The A1 file is its own master, with crown and trunk detail drawn at that scale. The pair's A0 is drawn larger again, with more crown and trunk detail at that scale.

Made for room scale: hang the pair at A1 with generous space between them, near dark timber and low warm light. The sky is the subject, and it wants distance. Oak, wide mat. A5 to A3 suits a hallway.

The files

Every purchase is a printable download. For each ratio on the listing you get a 300-DPI JPEG and a print-ready PDF. The JPEG is the file to print: send it to a photo lab or an online print service, or print it at home. It prints at full quality to the size you bought. The PDF is the vector version for a professional printer who asks for one. Upload services often read a PDF at low resolution, so use the JPEG there. The artwork is drawn as vector, so the linework stays crisp at every size.

Sizes

Print at the listed sizes or anything smaller. Exact trim sizes are on the listing and in each PDF's document properties.

Trim sizes · A2 396 × 594 mm (2:3) · 420 × 594 (A-series) · 475 × 594 (4:5) · A1 561 × 841 mm (2:3) · 594 × 841 (A-series) · 673 × 841 (4:5) · A0 793 × 1189 mm (2:3) · 841 × 1189 (A-series) · 951 × 1189 (4:5)

Colour

The files are RGB. A print shop converts to CMYK for their paper and inks. The vermilion and the teal come back very slightly softer, which is normal for any digital print file.

With your order

A two-page guide comes with every download: paper choices, printing at home or at a shop, framing, and the licence in plain words.

Licence

Personal use: print it for your own walls, as many times as you like. Not for resale, file-sharing, or commercial spaces. A commercial licence is one email away. If a file gives your printer trouble, we fix it within 30 days. Your Consumer Guarantees Act rights apply regardless.
