frequently asked questions

prints

What makes your prints eco-freindly?

We partner with premium Giclee printing experts who source their wood and paper from FSC certified forests, meaning they are monitored in compliance with strict environmental, social, and governance standards that advance long-term ecological goals. Also, our printing partners have multiple printing/fulfillment labs across North America effectively decreasing shipping distances and as a result decreasing pollution accordingly.

What happens when I purchase a print? And can I cancel an order if I change my mind?

Upon purchase of a print we send the print file and order information to our trusted premium Giclee printing partners who immediately get printing and assemblement underway. We will send you an order confirmation email immediately after the purchase of a print. You may cancel an order of a print within 1 hour of making the purchase.

Will you notify me when I order a print?

Yes, you will receive an order confirmation email immediately after purchasing a print. Please keep this email as we may need it from you in the future in case you decide to return the item.

commissions

How do your commissions work?

Upon contacting us in regards to a commission we will kindly ask you to provide us with a photo of what you would like the artist to paint. Prices are determined by size and complexity of commissioned piece. For e.g. a 20x30 human portrait with two faces will cost more than a 20x30 human portrait with one face. After an agreement is reached the artist will begin the piece. Once completed we will send you a picture or you can come in person, and you can let us know what you think.

I do not have a photo of what I would like my commission to look like, can the artist stilldo a commission for me?

Yes. If you do not have a photo not to worry, we can discuss further to get your idea across to the artist who has fulfilled several commissions purely from the ideas and visions of customers.

Our events are cocktail receptions with an array of drinks and cocktails to choose from in addition to simple hors-d’oeuvres (appetizers) surrounded by a nicely curated art show with original paintings and prints on display and for sale.
