F.A.Q.

Common Questions


OVERVIEW

Please read through these frequently asked questions to see if they cover a question that you might have. If you don't see your question listed, don't hesitate to reach out via the contact page. Thank you.


Are any of your paintings available to purchase?

Yes! They certainly are available, but not 100% of them as some have already been sold. Most available works will have a price listing attached. If there is a particular piece that you are interested in, please contact by email and will respond within 48 business hours.


Do you offer Prints or Giclées?

Yes! I certainly do that as well. Visit my online shop for a list of available prints for purchase. If you don’t see an option in the shop, please let me know by emailing me and I will be happy to consider it or work with you directly.


Do you do commissions?

Yes! I do that too! I love working with clients to create something that they’ve envisioned. I like the collaborative process, especially when clients respect the artistic process and trust I am there to give them what they want. Ultimately, the client has seen something in my work that they enjoy and respond to; they want to have a piece that is carefully crafted with them in mind. The context and meaning becomes a deeper expression, it’s familiar of a nuanced love letter. 

Contact me via email if you are interested in working together, or fill out the form on my contact page and tell me a bit about what ideas you have.


Can I borrow some of your work?

Yes. Depending on availability of the work and the nature and length of time being requested, we will make deciscions based on our discretion. If we feel comfortable we will draw up an agreement of terms for the desired nature, including pick-up/pack-up times, liabilty, insurance, media, events, and other related information. Please contact via email to discuss further.


What about consultations?

Definitely. I’m available to meet for discussing potential commission, graphic design work, illustration, branding, concept, collaborative projects, etc. Contact directly to schedule and appointment, usually 30-60 minute meetings upon initial meeting.

Shipping Terms and F.A.Q.


OVERVIEW

We follow packing procedures intended to protect Artworks throughout the shipping process. Refer to information below on how to expect to receive artwork and instructions on unpackaging your artwork without risk of damage to the artwork.


1. LOCATION

Each piece of art ships individually directly from the studio, occasionally smaller artworks purchased on the same transaction may be packaged together.


2. OUTER PACKAGING

Art ships flat in a sturdy, well-protected cardboard box to ensure their safe transport. Expect your artwork to arrive with plenty of package support. Eco-conscious use of materials is always taken into consideration, recycled and reused materials are used when appropriate.


3. INNER PACKAGING

Art is wrapped in acid-free archival tissue paper. Then covered with plastic sheeting for protection against moisture and dust. Bubble/foam wrapped with cardboard corner protectors. Finally supported by foam board or two-ply layers of cardboard.


4. PRINTS

Prints and other works on paper are shipped flat in chipboard mailers. Inside they are protected by cellophane wrapping and layers of foam or cardboard.


5. CRATE

Ship the art stretched as-is, in a constructed wooden container. Usually more costly.


6. ROLLED

The art is carefully removed from stretcher bars, then delicately rolled with layers of acid-free paper and plastic sheeting to avoid sticking. Finally, packaged in a large tube or triangle with additional filler to prevent jostling. Cost-effective, a common safe method. Acrylic is very pliable unless reaches extreme temperatures (below approximately 40F / 5C). Northbound winter deliveries might be forewarned to postpone.


7. SHIPPING PARTNERS

We ship through USPS, UPS, FedEx, and local courier services. Carrier can be subject to change depending on rates, timeframes, etc. to make sure you receive the art safely in the shortest time. Rates are based on the total weight (artwork plus packaging), timeframe, and time of year (i.e. increased holiday rates).


8. FREE LOCAL PICK-UP

Free local pick-up is available and can be arranged by contacting us. You must have your own transportation as well as load/unloading assistance.
