Leafy Seadragon Art from Kangaroo Island artists

Leafy Seadragons (Phycodurus eques) are among the most special of Kangaroo Island’s unique and often elusive marine creatures. Drifting silently through the ocean, these beautiful and ethereal animals masquerade easily as tiny scraps of seaweed.

Divers and underwater photographers travel to Kangaroo Island from around the world, in search of a magical meeting with a leafy seadragon, sometimes also coming across its relative, the weedy seadragon (Phyllopteryx taeniolatus).

Resident Silversmith Fred Peters has paid homage to the seadragons several times over the years, producing a beautiful range of delicately crafted seadragon jewellery, the perfect gift for divers and photographers. But Fred is not the only artist to be captivated by the leafy seadragon. Both the leafy and it’s cousin the weedy have inspired many Kangaroo Island artists. Browse through our entire range of Leafy Seadragon Art below.
