How and when do Prints ship?

Each print is carefully sealed in a clear fine-art sleeve, mounted on a sturdy backing board, and shipped in a protective box or flat mailer. Print orders are sent via USPS or UPS, depending on size and weight, and include tracking. Please allow 1–2 weeks for shipping; in-stock prints may ship sooner.

How Original Artwork Is Packaged and Shipped

Each unframed original artwork is carefully sealed in a clear fine-art sleeve, mounted on a thick backing board, then wrapped in vellum, tied with ribbon, and shipped in a protective box or flat mailer. Framed originals are wrapped in vellum and shipped in a sturdy, padded box. Items are sent via USPS or UPS, depending on size and weight, with tracking included. Please allow 1–2 weeks for shipping; every effort is made to prepare and send originals as quickly as possible.
