HOW TO ACQUIRE A PAINTING


 Payment: I accept most major credit cards through PayPal and you do not need a PayPal account to use your credit card.  Just click on any painting image for a larger view and then click on the "More Info" link, scroll down to the "Add To Cart" button for the painting and follow the easy instructions. PayPal continues to be a leader in safe online payments around the world.

 

Shipping: I offer free shipping on orders in the United States including Hawaii and Alaska. For international shipping destinations - charges of 7% will be applied and delivery confirmation will be used with USPS Priority Express International. Any custom fees are always the responsibility of the buyer. My paintings are shipped worldwide, personally packaged and insured.

 

Shipping Time: Your painting will be shipped within 3-5 business days after payment.

 

Certificate of Authenticity: All original paintings are shipped with a signed Certificate of Authenticity including, inventory item number and  Provenance register to record ownership.

 

Prices: Prices are for unframed paintings unless otherwise indicated.

 

My Personal Guarantee: I want my collectors to be 100% satisfied with my artwork, and I will accept returns within 7 days of receipt by you. Just return the painting within seven days of receipt, at your expense and in the same condition as sent, and I will refund your full purchase price.

 

Commission Policy: I am not accepting commissions at this time. I am concentrating on my current body of work and my teaching schedule.

 

Private Showings: Of course, the best way to view a painting is up-close and personal. No, I don't have an App for that, but I do have a viewing room (Also known as; my sun room). If you live in the Madison, Milwaukee, or the greater Chicago area or are traveling my way, I would be pleased to meet you in person and answer any questions you may have. I'll put on some background music, pour you a drink, and give you some alone time with the painting or paintings of your choice. Simply call or email to arrange a time so I can remove the artwork from my vault (Also known as; my basement art storage room). I love meeting people who love art ...so no high pressure (not my style) and no obligation.

ART ADDS LASTING VALUE TO YOUR LIFE

Is buying art a good financial investment? I don't know, paintings are primarily aesthetic investments, not financial ones. You should buy art because you connect with it or feel an emotional response to the work or it speaks to you on some level. 

 

The value of art, besides it's intrinsic visual and emotional value, is that it lasts. In a world of high priced gadgets that breakdown, wear out, or become obsolete …art endures. Art has a history and as a purchaser you become part of a paintings’ provenance. Not only does a collector own and enjoy a one-of-a-kind original work of art for the rest of their lives, but it can be passed along to their heirs and successors.

 

What else can you purchase for a modest investment that may be enjoyed for generations?" ~ Shropshire
