The Artist

Melbourne artist, Nathan Ferlazzo, shares his love of nature and wildlife through his intricate fauna and flora illustrations. Nathan started the family business in 2011 along with his mother, Clare and sister, Simone. 

After working for almost 10 years as a graphic designer, Nathan decided to pursue his passion for illustration and wildlife. He began with attending markets and selling the originals, which then progressed to selling to local gift stores. Nathan continued working as a graphic designer part-time, but as interest continued to grow in the brand he took the step in 2014 to go full time working on his family business with his mother, Clare and sister, Simone. Partnering with wildlife conservation organisations was important to Nathan and his family, as it was a way they felt they could contribute positively to the important work of protecting the species affected by human settlement. 

To date, Marini Ferlazzo has donated over $200,000 to various conservation groups.
