Once widespread across Australia, the Greater Bilby (Macrotis lagotis) is now threatened, largely due to predation by feral cats and foxes and … the invasion of rabbits. Rabbits in fact have become one of the main causes buy of species loss in Australia. So the idea to replace the Easter Bunny with the Easter Bilby was born to raise awareness of threats to native wildlife in general. But this print doessnt need to be only for Easter.
Choose from 'Bilbies-Desert Sands' (their natural habitat) or 'Bilbies- Blue Skies'.

Hand-coloured lino print. Mounted in warm white mount, ready to slip straight into a 25cm frame. (eg Ikea Ribba)
These prints are created by carving the designs, in mirror image, into a lino block. They are printed by hand on Fabriano paper, and coloured using watercolour paints and inks.
Therefore, although there are multiples available of the same image, each print is a unique and original work. Each is signed and numbered. The numbers on each piece refer to the edition size (to the right of the slash), which is the total number of that image that will be produced. The other number identifies the individual print.
Image is 14 x 14 cm, printed on paper approx 20 x 20cm.
Edition of 25 of each colour variation.
