Artist bio - Ricci McAuliffe is an Australian artist based in the Yarra Valley, known for her vibrant, textured interpretations of native flora. Initially the founder of a successful artisan food business, Ricci’s Bikkies, McAuliffe’s creative path led her to painting, driven by her passion for nature and the landscapes around her. Completely self-taught, she began her artistic journey in 2019, experimenting with acrylics, oils, and mixed media to create highly textured works that reflect the rugged beauty of Australian plants. Her art often focuses on iconic native flora such as banksias and flowering gums, blending bold colors and layered compositions to evoke the natural environment's visual and tactile qualities. McAuliffe’s work has gained significant attention, with her pieces featured in exhibitions and sought after by collectors. Despite not having formal training, her innate sense of colour, texture, and connection to nature has garnered her a loyal following.

  • "I knew I wanted an artwork of Australian native flora, but I couldn’t seem to find any that I adored. That was until I stumbled upon Ricci’s Instagram and website. I instantly fell in love with a larger one of Ricci’s paintings, though knowing it was a once in a lifetime artwork purchase and not being able to see it in person, I was a touch nervous. But I needn’t have been.

    Buying one of Ricci’s artworks went beyond the standard purchaser/business transaction as Ricci was so warm, understanding, helpful and kind throughout the process. Ricci was able to superimpose the painting on the space where it would hang in our home, giving me a realistic sense of how it would look and was happy to send numerous videos and photo’s to allow me the best opportunities to virtually view the painting.

    I couldn’t believe my eyes when the painting arrived, it is utterly exquisite. The painting is calming and enchanting, there’s a sense of movement amongst the leaves and I am constantly noticing new details which is such a treat. I will forever have very fond memories of purchasing one of Ricci’s artworks and I’m so grateful for such an incredible painting to treasure for life.”

  • Ricci’s paintings are truly exquisite. She is an incredibly talented artist whose love of nature and Australian flora oozes out in every piece she creates. As the lucky owner of two pieces, her paintings have the ability to alter my mood everyday. One is soft and has a dreamlike quality that instantly grounds me and has a calming effect. The second is incredibly bold and vibrant and the colours leave me feeling energised and full of life. Her artwork makes you appreciate the outdoors and instantly reconnects you with nature. Ricci’s passion and love of art is evident in every piece and I’m so grateful for the joy they bring our home.

  • Ricci created the most stunning image for me that is truly special.  A gorgeous painting that brightens my home as if the sun is constantly shinning upon it, created by her clever use of texture and colour.  Her connection with Australian flora is nothing short of whimsical and the masterpiece that Ricci created is honestly my most prized possession and something that will be cherished forever. The painting can only be described as I would describe Ricci herself  -  absolutely divine.

  • We had been eyeing off Ricci’s amazing paintings on Instagram for the last 12 months and finally decided to buy one for my husbands birthday. As we were buying on the the other side of Australia we had to have lots of photos sent to us to make sure we loved the pic. There was one small change we wanted made and Ricci was so helpful. She even organised framing for us. This was all done during lockdown and I can’t believe how smoothly it all went. We Absolutely love the painting and it looked even better in real life. Thank you Ricci!

  • I would like to thank Ricci very much, for creating a wonderful painting for our home.

     For years I have been looking for a painting with Australian plants, mainly banksia.

     I was recommended to Ricci by a fellow artist and was not disappointed.

    I contacted Ricci and asked for a long painting with Banksias and yellow gum tree flowers. The communication was terrific even down to the detail of where the painting was to be placed and the colours of our walls.

    When the painting was personally delivered, I unwrapped it and I was amazed that everything that asked for was absolutely brilliant.

    Thanks so much for this artwork, I can’t wait to save up for another one.

  • I found Ricci and her beautiful art on Instagram and boy am I glad I did! We’d
    been looking for some time for large artworks to sit either side of our
    fireplace and when I stumbled across her account I knew I was on to a winner!
    We commissioned two pieces and Ricci worked with us to ensure they fit the
    space perfectly. Ricci, herself, is an absolute delight. She went out of her
    way to ensure that we loved what she produced, she even drove the finished
    pieces to the couriers depo to save on additional fees. Ricci is a real talent.
    She captures the Australian flora beautifully and we are forever grateful to
    her. Thank you Ricci!
