“Art should be accessible to everyone. That’s why I created downloadable versions of my original artworks, same emotion, same colour, same incredible quality, but for a fraction of the price.” – Peggy
Let’s face it, the world is getting expensive. From groceries to petrol to nights out with friends, everything feels like it’s going up and up. And for many of us, art is one of those luxuries that ends up at the bottom of the list. But I believe art should never be out of reach. In fact, I believe it’s more important than ever.
That’s why I decided to offer digital downloads of my original artwork. It’s my way of making fabulous, joyful, soul nourishing art accessible to more people, no matter their budget or location.
If you’ve ever wanted to fill your space with bright, beautiful, heart lifting artwork, without breaking the bank, then digital downloads might be exactly what you’ve been looking for.
Here’s why I sell them, and why I think you’re going to love them too.
I’m an artist because I love colour, joy, emotion, and connection. My paintings are full of life, playful, feminine, bold. But I know that not everyone can afford an original artwork or a custom framed print. That doesn’t mean they should miss out.
Digital downloads allow me to offer my art at a price that works for almost any budget. For $49.00, you can own a piece of my creativity.
Whether you’re renting your first place, decorating your office, gifting a friend, or simply want something lovely to look at every day, digital downloads make it easy.
If you’re new to the idea, here’s how it works. When you purchase a digital download from me, you receive a high resolution digital file of my artwork, which you can print yourself or take to a printer. It’s the same artwork, same colours, same emotion, just delivered digitally instead of physically.
You can choose how to display it. Maybe you’ll frame it and hang it in your hallway. Maybe you’ll print it small and use it in a gallery wall. Maybe you’ll use it as a screensaver on your laptop or phone. The beauty of digital is that you decide.
One of the biggest concerns people have about digital art is quality. Will it look pixelated? Will the colours be off? Will it feel cheap?
Let me tell you this, quality matters deeply to me, and every digital download I sell has been carefully optimised to be printed at the same size as the original painting.
That means if the original canvas was 40x50cm, the file you receive will be perfect for printing at 40x50cm, no stretching, no distortion, no blurry edges.
I use professional scanning and editing professionals to capture the detail and colour of each piece as accurately as possible. You’ll see the brushstrokes, the vibrancy, and the depth, all from your home printer or chosen print service.
You don’t need to spend hundreds on custom framing to make your artwork look amazing.
In fact, one of my favourite framing solutions is an app called Keepsake. I actually discovered it when I was trying to find a professional, high quality way to print and frame some family photos. I thought, why not test it with one of my artworks?
Well, I was blown away.
The frame was beautiful. The print quality was incredible. The whole thing arrived looking polished, professional, and ready to hang. Best of all, it was so affordable. I genuinely couldn’t believe the value.
Now I recommend Keepsake to everyone, it’s quick, easy, and offers a level of quality that rivals some of the more expensive custom framers out there. You can upload your digital file directly in the app, choose your frame style, and have it delivered to your door.
Honestly, it feels like a bit of a framing hack. It’s the kind of tip I wish someone had told me sooner, which is why I’m sharing it now. Think of it as a little community service from one art lover to another.
Other great options include Mixtiles and Snapfish, both offer good quality at reasonable prices. You can also walk into your local Officeworks or independent printer and ask them to print your download on premium paper. You’ll be surprised at how stunning the result can be.
The flexibility of digital art is one of the things I love most about it. Here are just a few ways you might choose to use your download:
You’re not locked into one format or style. You get to decide what works best for your space, your vibe, and your budget.
This is really important to me, digital downloads are not a second best option. They’re not the “budget” version of my art. They’re a conscious choice I’ve made to expand access to creativity, to bring more beauty into the world, and to meet people where they are.
I pour just as much love and intention into preparing a digital download as I do into an original painting. I want you to feel that energy every time you look at it.
It’s not mass produced stock art. It’s not generic. It’s real art, created by a real person, made for real people like you.
When you buy a digital download from me, you’re not just getting a file. You’re supporting a small, independent artist. You’re helping me grow my business, continue creating, and reach more people with work that makes them smile.
You’re also choosing a more sustainable option. No shipping emissions, no packaging waste, no production backlog. It’s art on your terms, delivered instantly.
And maybe most importantly, you’re choosing to bring something beautiful into your life. Something that speaks to you, lifts you up, and makes your space feel more like you.
Selling digital downloads has completely changed the way I think about sharing my art. It’s allowed me to connect with more people, offer better value, and make sure no one misses out just because times are tough.
If you’ve never tried a digital download before, I’d love for you to give it a go. It might just be the easiest, most affordable way to surround yourself with beautiful, meaningful art.
Thank you for supporting what I do. It means the world.
