Do you do commissions?
Yes, I am open a few times a year for commissions. Please get in touch by filling out my contact form and we can discuss your requirements, timescales and cost.
Do you deliver outside of the UK?
I will consider delivery outside of UK by arrangement only. Due to the variation of delivery costs, customs duty and tax please email me before purchasing anything so I can give an accurate delivery cost. I will reserve the artwork you're interested in, let you know delivery cost and allow 1 calendar week afterwards for you to make a decision before the artwork is relisted as being available for others to purchase. You will be responsible for finding out and paying any import duty, taxes and fees that are applied in your country.
Paintings
What medium are your original paintings?
I work mainly in water based mediums; acrylic paint, inks and pencils. Details will usually be listed alongside each piece along with measurements and what surface it has been painted on (usually paper, canvas or wood panel).
Are your paintings framed?
It varies and this information will be contained in the product description. Most work on canvas is sold unframed which most people like as they can choose the best colour and style of frame to fit with their home décor. It also saves on extra postage costs too. For most works of art on canvas or wood I would recommend a tray (float) frame.
Will my painting be ready to hang?
Yes, all paintings will come ready to hang (with cord, wire or other fittings).
Purchasing with a deposit
As the value of my work grows I understand spreading the cost can be a helpful option. Please contact me to arrange before making a purchase. UK customers can hold a painting with a 50% deposit. The balance can be paid in one further payment or 2 monthly payments of 25% each. This is an informal agreement made with trust; you understand that a deposit will secure your artwork and you will be required to pay the remaining balance. This is not a credit scheme, but an arrangement on trust, at no extra cost to you. Usual shipping costs and return policy will apply.
Can I purchase your work with a different payment plan?
Yes, that can be arranged. For any work over £500 you can pay in instalments. Please send me a message and we can work out an arrangement that suits you. As soon as the final payment is made, your work will be shipped to you.
My favourite painting has sold – how can I be sure to know about new work?
Some pieces sell very quickly. Make sure you join my mailing list to find out about new work before it is added to the Shop. But, as I try not to bombard you with emails, you can also follow studio progress on Instagram or Facebook to see work coming up.
How will my painting be wrapped?
It depends on size, but paintings will be carefully packed using corner protection, bubble wrap and cardboard. Each one is unique so I take care that is well protected to arrive in perfect condition. For further details about delivery please see the shipping details.
