FAQ's

Where can I buy your original paintings and drawings?
Most of my original paintings and drawings can be found on this website via the gallery. I also recently launched my mailing list, which enables me to update my customers on any new artwork I have available. If you'd like to join my mailing list, please enter your email at the top of this page. Thanks!

Is commissioned artwork available? If so, how do I request a custom drawing or painting?
Yes, I do currently accept requests for commissioned pieces :) For more in-depth information on requesting commissions, please click here. Thank you :)

How long does shipping usually take?
Please allow 1 week for shipping within the United States and 1-4 weeks for international shipping.

How much is shipping and handling?
The artwork will usually be shipped with Signature Confirmation in a flat mailer via Priority Mail. Please note: the following prices include Signature Confirmation and are calculated to cover packaging materials, since I eliminate additional shipping charges if more than one piece of artwork is purchased at the time of checkout.

    Domestic shipping (all states and territories) - $10.59
    International shipping (Canada and Mexico) - $17.89
    International shipping (All other countries, excluding Canada and Mexico) - $20.01

How are your paintings and drawings packaged? How secure are they?
I actually pride myself on packaging my paintings and drawings very securely. Each piece is enclosed in a plastic sleeve and placed between two cardboard sheets to prevent bending and wrapped in bubble wrap.

What materials do you use to create your paintings and drawings?
I usually use Strathmore Bristol Smooth or Vellum paper, and occasionally Academie paper, with Prismacolor pastels or graphite pencils. Each type of paper I use is lignin and acid free, as well as fade-resistant. The piece is also sprayed with fixative for preservation and enjoyment for years to come.

What methods of payment do you accept?
I usually prefer PayPal and only accept payment in US dollars. If you don't have a PayPal account, no worries :) You can either create an acount on PayPal or you can pay for a drawing or painting with a credit card without creating an account. If the artwork you are purchasing is not on Ebay, such as a commissioned piece, and you don't want to use a credit card, I do accept checks and money orders along with PayPal, however I do wait until they are cleared by the bank/post office before shipping artwork.
