Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, but subject to my availability, which fluctuates, and on a first-come, first-served basis.

Please use the Contact page on this site to reach out if you are interested in collaborating on a custom project. We’d set up an exploratory call to identify what you’re looking for, go over the process, and get started from there. 

Fine art paper is composed of natural cotton fibers that enhance the visual appeal of the art by providing a depth and texture that ordinary papers don't offer. To meet the criteria of “fine art print,” the paper must be museum-grade, meaning it’s of acid-free, archival quality and should last 75-100 years with sufficient care, which contributes to sustainability.

Giclée is a printing technique for reproducing fine art or photographs using a high-quality inkjet printer equipped with pigment-based inks in a wide range of colors to make individual copies. Because of their high standard of digital reproduction and longevity, giclée prints are used for gallery and museum exhibitions, limited editions, private collections and archives. The word giclée is derived from a combination of the French words “gicleur” (meaning “nozzle”), and “gicler” (meaning “to spray”). The resulting “giclée” was then adopted to refer to inkjet printing technology.

My studio is in Stamford, Connecticut, located in the New England/Northeast region of the United States, and less than an hour from New York City.

Shipping costs for both domestic orders within the United States and international orders are calculated at checkout and based on the shipping address provided by the buyer.

Shipping outside the United States may incur extra costs. If you’d like, feel free to Contact me to receive a shipping cost quote for an international order prior to buying the artwork of your choice.

Prints typically take 5-7 business days for domestic shipments within the United States, and 10-14 business days for international shipments. 

For original drawings, please allow 4 weeks for me to prepare your purchase for shipment, as I either have to package and mail the order myself or hand deliver it at my earliest convenience to my fulfillment partner to package and ship. I am not Amazon! Thank you in advance for your patience. Once your original piece is shipped, the same timeline noted above applies.

Yes. Within the United States, retailers in Connecticut — where my studio is based — are required to use “destination-based” sourcing for tax collection, which means purchases made on this website are taxed at the tax rate of the state in which the buyer takes possession of the art. Applicable taxes are calculated at checkout based on the shipping address provided by the buyer.

International orders may be subject to taxes and other import duties. Customers are responsible for any applicable customs taxes.

All sales are final. The only exception is if your order arrived damaged (see “What if my art arrived damaged?”). 

My team and I take every precaution to ensure your art is meticulously packed to minimize the risk of damage during transport. But if your order arrives damaged, please send within 2 business days photograph(s) showing the damage. (This is necessary for us to file a claim with the applicable mail carrier.) We will then work to remedy the situation to your satisfaction on an individual, case-by-case basis.  

Please use the Contact page of this site to initiate the process.
