MATERIALS : I work with the very best light fast pigments and materials to ensure the highest quality outcomes. For example, when working in oils, I use fine Belgium linen, exhibition quality stretchers and professional quality paints etc. NB: sadly high quality materials are expensive, hence my pricing structure.
TIMESCALE : I endeavour to produce work within your timeframe but due to ongoing commissions I may not be able to start immediately. Some commissions take a day to create, others might involve a lot of initial research and the work could take several months or more to complete. I can give you a better understanding once we have clarified your specific requirements..
WHO : I work with members of the public, international collectors, galleries, organisations and businesses.
FRAMING : prices do not include framing. I prefer not to frame work that has to be shipped as it requires a crate to ensure it arrives un-damaged. (This adds to the costs). I would recommend that the customer buys the work from me unframed (unless it’s a local delivery) and then gets his/her own framer to do the work. I can advise and suggest suitable framing. I regularly use a local professional framer.
PACKING : I pack artwork so that it can withstand the roughest of treatment. In a former life I used to work for a mail order company, shipping globally. I prefer to roll drawings and prints and ship them in cardboard tubes. Larger paintings are always packed in plywood crates. Where possible I like to use small independent couriers who deliver work by hand.
International freight can be arranged via my tried and tested agent (not yours).
COPYRIGHT
It’s standard practice for copyright to remain the property of the artist, although with commercial illustration copyright is often transferred to the publisher for an extra fee.
SHIPPING/POSTAGE&PACKING
I can give an estimate once I know your specific requirements. NB : to mitigate scams, I only use MY shippers, not yours.
I deliver work in person within a ten mile radius of Portsmouth UK.
PAYMENT : 50% of agreed price before I start work and 50% upon completion/delivery.
DISPLAYS : NEVER display watercolours (or photographs) in direct sunlight.
SATISFACTION : I email digital images of “works in progress” and strive to give customers a final outcome that they will be proud to own.
FEEDBACK : I ask for, and value, feedback from my customers throughout the process. Please feel free to comment.
