Description
Resembling soft cherry blossoms drifting beneath the swell, Botryocladia is one of the coastline's most enchanting surprises. While scientifically known for its rounded, grape-like clusters, its delicate form and fluid structure bring an almost floral softness to marine botanical art.
Sustainably hand-foraged along the beaches of the Northern Rivers, NSW, Australia, each specimen is carefully washed, floated, and pressed in the studio. The resulting fine art print is a physical fragment of the sea resting gently on paper, holding the quiet memory of a specific tide, a particular stretch of coast, and a peaceful moment along the shore.
Crafted for beachcombers, art collectors, and anyone whose spirit belongs near the water, this piece offers a gentle anchor for your space. It serves as a daily reminder of the unexpected magic hidden in nature and the calm wisdom of living with the tides.
All prints are unframed and posted with hard backing card for protection and sealed in a biodegradable cellulose slip.

Behind The Brand
With The Tides is a studio practice rooted in devotion to the ocean and the natural world. Based along the Northern Rivers coastline of NSW, Australia, the artwork celebrates the transient, delicate beauty of washed-up marine flora through traditional botanical pressing.
Every design begins on the beach. Seaweed specimens are gathered by hand from the shoreline, taking only what the tide has already offered, never harvesting from living reefs or rock pools.
In the studio, each specimen is gently washed and floated on watercolor paper submerged in a shallow tray. As it settles into its natural form, the paper is carefully lifted out and transferred to a wooden press.
The pressing process takes days or weeks to complete. The resulting prints hold a tactile memory of a specific tide, weather pattern, and stretch of coast.
ABOUT THE ARTIST
Alice is the creator behind With The Tides. Living along the Northern Rivers, her days are shaped by the ocean, coastal walks, and the natural rhythms of the sea.
Her work stems from a desire to bring the grounding essence of nature indoors, encouraging a slower, more intentional connection to the environments around us. Combining mindfulness, artistic preservation, and a deep respect for marine ecosystems, Alice creates each piece with patience and care, offering a quiet piece of coastal wisdom for the home.
