Cape Arid National Park is a fascinating and remote area on the far south-eastern coast of Western Australia. Braving howling winds, grit, sleet, 43-degree heat and thousands of flies, the Nikulinskys travel rough sandy tracks to be rewarded by shimmering seas, islands and unique flora and fauna.

For forty years, botanical artist Philippa Nikulinsky has been sharing her love of wild places through her painting. Now in her first collaboration on a book with her husband Alex Nikulinsky comes a very personal journey to Cape Arid, a remote national park on the far south-eastern coast of Western Australia. This book is the result of eleven field trips together, over four years, covering all the seasons.
