Tempest Horizon
Here in southeast Queensland, it's typical for storms to arrive like clockwork in the afternoon. On very hot and humid summer days, you’ll see a wall of dark black clouds approaching over the horizon from the hinterland by 3-4 pm. I was at home when I received an alert on my phone, “warning - severe and dangerous thunderstorm approaching”. Let’s get it! I checked the weather data to see where it was expected to hit. However, this time took me longer than normal to figure out its direction. The more I reviewed it, the more it confused me. Then, it suddenly dawned on me… the storm was splitting into two! One was going to head slightly further north, the other further south and the tiny little split in the middle was me! How is this even possible?!
I quickly left my house and rushed to the beach as fast as I could. When I arrived, I looked towards the south and knew that I was about to witness something extraordinary. The storm had reached the ocean and started unleashing its full energy with huge lightning strike after strike. I managed to stay completely dry as the storm moved further out to the ocean. To top it all off, the setting sun began to peek through the clouds on the edge of the storm. The mix of deep and moody skies with fiery oranges in the sunset created a stunning natural contrast, revealing every detail in the sky. It’s truly a moment I’ll never forget.

Common Questions
What does ‘Limited Edition’ mean?
Limited Edition means that there will only ever be a pre-determined number of prints produced of each photograph. Once the edition sells out, there will never be another reprint or sale of that photograph from the artist.
How do you hang the artwork?
All of our pieces will arrive with the necessary hanging equipment already attached to the back of the frame. In addition, one set of drywall anchors will be included with each purchase for mounting on drywall only. For more detailed information on how to hang your artwork, please refer to our FAQs page.
How long will shipping take?
We know you’ll be waiting in anticipation to receive your new artwork at your door! Orders are generally dispatched within 14 days after you place your order. Once shipped, the arrival timeframe is an additional 7-14 business days, depending on the final destination and courier. Please note that we cannot ship to a PO Box, and remote areas might need more time for shipping. If there is going to be a delay beyond this timeframe, we will be in touch.
What is your refund and return policy?
Marc James Limited Editions are custom-made, and as such, if you are not completely satisfied with your purchase, you may return it within 7 days of receipt and receive store credit for a future purchase. Returned items need to be in a like-new condition. All artwork goes under a final quality assurance inspection before being carefully packed to ensure its safety during shipping. Every piece is also insured during transit. In the unlikely event that your order arrives damaged, please contact us within 48 hours of delivery to qualify for a replacement, and we’ll organise it, free of charge. However, any damage reported outside of this window will not be eligible for a replacement.
The Modern Era Of Fine Art
Displaying an artist's work can be done through various mediums, but some stand apart over others. All Marc James' pieces are printed on one of the highest-grade fine art materials available today - aluminium dye sublimation printing. This special process involves sublimating the ink directly onto a sheet of light-reactive white aluminium using heat and pressure. The result is a print with exceptional brightness, vibrancy, and clarity that most other printing techniques cannot match. The prints are so luminous that they almost appear backlit at times.
The final product merges this with a hidden frame attached to the back to let the piece float elegantly off your wall, creating the perfect modern art piece for any home or space.
