Product Description

Sea & Sand Canvas Wall Art — Western Australian Coastline

Strip a beach back to its essentials — sea meeting sand — and you are left with what makes the Western Australian coastline so mesmerising. This aerial photograph does exactly that: shot straight down over the WA coast, capturing the clean line where clear Indian Ocean water folds onto pale sand. Texture against texture, blue against white.

Some flights are about chasing a landmark. This one was about following the coastline until it handed over a composition — no buildings, no crowds, just the two elements that make every beach what it is, drawn in lacework by the shore break.

Original aerial photography by Matthew Philip

Personally shot by Australian aerial photographer Matthew Philip on a DJI Mavic 4 Pro. The drone's 100MP Hasselblad camera preserves the fine detail that makes minimal work sing — every thread of whitewater, every ripple in the sand, the subtle gradients in the shallows — all pin sharp at every print size.

The most versatile piece in the collection

Sea & Sand behaves almost like an abstract: calm, balanced and endlessly easy to live with. The restrained palette suits modern, minimal, Japandi and coastal interiors alike, and it works beautifully in bedrooms, bathrooms, hallways and offices — anywhere that benefits from quiet rather than clutter.

It pairs naturally with bolder pieces or holds a wall entirely on its own. Western Australia has thousands of kilometres of coast like this — clean, quiet and completely unbothered.

Available as a fine art paper print or stretched canvas, with black, oak and white framing options across a full range of sizes. Every artwork in the Matthew Philip collection comes from his own aerial photographs of the Western Australian coast he has personally explored and flown.

About The Location

Some flights I go out chasing a landmark. Others, like this one, I just follow the coastline until it hands me a composition.

I stopped over a stretch where the shore break was drawing perfect lacework across the sand — no buildings, no crowds, just the two elements that make every beach what it is. Shot straight down, sea and sand become almost abstract: texture, line and colour.

The 100MP Hasselblad on the Mavic 4 Pro captures every thread of whitewater and every ripple in the sand, which is what gives the print its depth up close. Western Australia has thousands of kilometres of coast exactly like this — quiet, clean and completely unbothered. This frame is my tribute to it.

Frequently asked questions

All canvas prints on this site are made to order—I print each one specifically for you using museum-quality materials, which means a 3–4 week production and delivery window within Australia. This isn't a warehouse clearance; it's a custom-made product crafted to last decades. If you're ordering before a specific date, get in touch and I can often prioritize your print. Free shipping applies Australia-wide, and you'll receive tracking so you know exactly when your piece is arriving.

Paper and poster prints ship much faster—typically 1-2 business days to anywhere in the world, with free international shipping included. If you need your aerial photography print urgently, this is the best option. The paper is archival-grade (same fade-resistant, professional-quality stock I use in gallery prints), so despite the quicker turnaround, you're not compromising on longevity.

Canvas prints ship ready to hang with your choice of frame style at checkout: black, white, or natural oak. Each frame is specifically designed to complement the composition of the aerial photography and arrives attached and ready to display. If you prefer an unframed print, that's available too—giving you the flexibility to source custom framing locally or match existing décor. Paper prints come unframed but can be ordered with frame recommendations included in your package.

Canvas prints are stretched across 390gsm acid-free poly-cotton matte canvas—the same archival-quality material used by professional galleries and museums for fine art. The inks are fade-resistant and non-toxic, rated for 100+ years without noticeable color shift when kept out of direct sunlight. Paper prints come in three finishes: matte (museum-grade), semi-gloss (vibrant), or fine art paper, all archival-rated. As a Perth-based aerial photographer who has shot every image on this site, I've invested in materials that will outlast the trends—your print is an investment in something that lasts.

Canvas and paper prints are low-maintenance. Keep them away from prolonged direct sunlight (which fades any print over decades) and humidity extremes. If dust settles on canvas, a soft, dry, lint-free cloth does the job—no cleaners needed. Paper prints benefit from framing behind glass or acrylic, which provides UV protection and makes them virtually maintenance-free. Both formats are designed to age gracefully; many customers report their prints looking exactly as vibrant 10+ years later.

I stand behind every print. If your canvas or paper print arrives damaged, the colors aren't right, or anything doesn't meet your expectations, contact me immediately with photos. I'll remake it or refund you—no questions, no process. This isn't just a returns policy; it's a commitment to your satisfaction. Email matt@matthewphilip.com and we'll resolve it within 48 hours.
