Frequently Asked Questions
-
Every original painting is carefully wrapped in protective glassine paper, cushioned with high-density padding, and packed in heavy-duty art boxes. All original shipments include full carrier insurance and direct tracking so your artwork arrives safely.
-
All canvases have painted, finished edges and come wired and ready to hang on your wall right out of the box. If a piece includes a custom wood floater frame or vintage framing, it will be explicitly noted in the painting’s description.
-
Prints are produced using archival-grade inks on heavy, museum-quality textured fine art paper or stretched canvas. They are designed to resist fading and preserve rich color and fine brushstroke detail for decades.

Yes! If you are local to Santa Cruz County or the greater Monterey Bay / Bay Area, we can coordinate complimentary studio pickup or local hand-delivery for original paintings. You can select this option at checkout or send me a note.

We begin with a consultation to discuss your ideal size, palette, and mood. Once we confirm the details, a 50% deposit reserves your spot on my studio calendar. I share progress updates as the piece develops, and the remaining balance is due prior to delivery or installation.

Because original paintings and made-to-order prints are custom creations, all sales are final. However, if your order arrives damaged during transit, please contact me within 7 days of delivery with photos so I can file an insurance claim and make it right immediately.
