Domestic shipping to all 50 states is available for all prints. Shipping time is typically 1-5 days to the 48 contiguous states, and a bit longer to Alaska and Hawaii. Your order may arrive on a Saturday.
Shipping time varies by country.
Because of the high cost of shipping large mounted prints internationally, unmounted work is the most economical to ship, and in addition to saving on shipping costs and reducing the risk of damage, you get to mat and frame your new print however you like.
However, I do offer all sizes and mountings of prints to my international collectors, so please order according to your needs.
Yes. If you are not completely satisfied with your purchase for any reason, simply return it postage paid within 14 days in like-new condition for a cheerful refund, exchange, or credit (less any shipping charges).
My 11″×14″ and smaller prints are archival pigment prints (giclée). The larger ones are LightJet prints made by exposing traditional darkroom paper with lasers and then developing the paper using the traditional chemical process.
The white mats and flat, contemporary black frames I use complement the prints nicely.
All my prints are printed on archival paper. The white mats and rigid mount boards I have selected are not only acid-free but also archival, actively neutralizing external pollutants and removing harmful chemicals. The acrylic glazing that accompanies your framed print is conservation grade and filters 98% of ultraviolet (UV) light.
My thoughtful choice of materials helps ensure the longevity of the investment you make in my art.
I sign the back of every print and mat. Limited-edition prints are also numbered and include a Certificate of Authenticity.
The copyright notices you see on the website do not appear on prints.
I offer fine art prints in several sizes and three mountings: framed and matted, matted, and unmounted.
Note: In the pricing tables below, the pricing is the same for all patrons. For reasons explained below, some sizes and mountings are unavailable in some areas. Colors on your screen may differ from those in the prints.
Sizes are approximate. Larger sizes are available; please ask.
Prints 16″×20″ and larger are limited editions. This means that after an edition sells out, no prints of that image in that size will be available. Prices increase as the edition sells out.
