Dragonfly (Black)

In nearly all of the styles and subjects that David paints, there are subtle elements of his father’s (Pro Hart) secret techniques. David has been left with an incredible responsibility to his heritage, and he feels that it’s up to him now to keep these styles alive. More than that, he sees his challenge is to take his father’s secret techniques to new heights and to push through the boundaries of experimentation and growth as he adapts and integrates them into his own style.

ABOUT THE ARTWORK

The Dragonfly and Bull Ant series came about as the result of a promise that David made to his father, Pro Hart, to keep his secret techniques and styles alive after he passed away. David’s interpretation of the Dragonfly and Bull Ants series may follow a similar subject and theme, but they are quite different to the images painted by his father. As an extension to his fathers technique, David uses acrylic bases for his background, and then creates a shiny, slippery finish using various oil mediums. After laying down the basic composition, he then continues to build the image using multiple layers of glazing which are applied, rubbed away, and then reapplied, allowing the image to gradually emerge like light from the darkness.

Premium Materials

David chooses premium-quality materials to ensure the best possible results

Certificate of Authenticity

Every original painting includes a complementary certificate of authenticity and valuation

Hand-Crafted

From canvas to frame, every step is hand-crafted and expertly created

David's use of thick paint, luscious textures, and vibrant colour, are the hallmarks of his work.

David quite often uses a set colour pallet for each style of painting that he does, but still, there are no two paintings the same. All of the colours are hand-mixed to get exactly the right tone for the job.  The fact that David adds the human element to mixing the colours means that no two batches will ever come out exactly alike.

Impeccable Colour

We would love to hear from you.

We absolutely do, when you buy from David Hart you’re buying the real deal! Whether it’s a David Hart painting, or a painting from a Hart family member, you can have 100% confidence that your new artwork is totally authentic. 

Every Hart artwork we sell comes with a Certificate of Authenticity and Valuation at its current retail value. This is what is also known as provenance. That means that when you, or your children, should ever decide to sell your Hart artwork, or update its valuation for insurance purposes, you can instantly prove the artworks purchase history, authenticity and value, adding peace of mind to any future purchaser. 

We know you just can’t wait, so our artworks and products are carefully packed and dispatched within 48 hours. We make sure we have a large range of Fine Art Reproductions printed and ready, but some editions are made to order and can take between 5 – 10 days in production and framing prior to dispatch.

Our couriers are unable to deliver to PO Boxes as they require a physical street address for delivery. If you live in a remote location then your item may be able to be shipped with Australia Post and a PO Box will be ok.

If your item is an unframed reproduction it will usually be sent in a hard postal tube, we can deliver these to a PO Box if you prefer.  Australia Post generally takes a couple of days longer than our standard courier.

As a guide for the standard courier, if you live in Southeast QLD, your delivery should arrive between 1 – 3 business days from dispatch.  Sydney area is 2 – 7 business days and Melbourne area is 3 – 9 business days.  These delivery times are only a general guide as actual delivery times depend totally on the courier.

The art courier can usually take 1 – 4 weeks for delivery as they work on a rotating Australia-wide schedule of being in particular areas every 2 – 4 weeks.

If you are purchasing a Pro Hart, most of these are re-sales and are located with the current owner.  If the painting is being sent with a standard courier, approximately 1 week needs to be allowed for the painting to be professionally packaged and collected by the courier. If it is being sent with an art courier, it is dependent on when they are next in the area, as mentioned above. 

We accept payment by Visa, Mastercard, PayPal, direct transfer, and cash.  Full payment is required before an order can be processed and dispatched.

We also accept Wizpay, which you can receive your order straight away but take 4 weeks to pay it off in 4 interest free instalments to Wizpay.  Sign up with a snap and checkout in a flash. 

We also accept a 3 month lay-by on most original and reproduction artworks.  This requires a 25% deposit and regular monthly payments.

We will happily replace or refund your purchase if it arrives damaged. Any damage needs to be reported within 48 hours of delivery, please click here to email the information along with photographs of the damage as well as the inside and outside of the packaging. Please retain original packaging as we may need to arrange for collection of the damaged or faulty item.

We will organise and pay for the return of the item but it must be returned within 14 days of delivery. In the case where a refund is issued, the refund will be facilitated through your original payment method once the item has been returned.
