Framing
All paintings are shipped unframed for two reasons: firstly to avoid the danger of glass breaking in transit and damaging the painting and secondly because framing is very subjective – people like to choose a frame that not only suits the painting but also fits in with the décor of the room in which it will hang.
Shipping
All paintings are shipped Royal Mail Special Delivery to UK addresses; this provides compensation should anything happen to the painting in transit. Should your painting arrive in anything but perfect condition please make sure that you record any damage on the postman’s delivery documentation and keep any damaged packaging in case it is needed for inspection as part of a compensation claim. Your painting will be well packed to protect it as much as is possible, but accidents can happen in transit. In the event of any mishap, please inform me as soon as possible. Please note that special delivery requires a signature.
Shipping within the UK is free for items over £150.
If you require delivery to an address other than your normal billing address, please stipulate this clearly on your order.
Sizes
Please note that all sizes are approximate and have been rounded to the nearest half inch for ease of listing.
Materials
All watercolours are painted on acid-free paper using artist’s quality paints which will under normal conditions ensure their longevity. However please ensure that the painting is properly mounted and framed behind glass to protect it from the elements and that it is hung out of direct sunlight. Even the best, most expensive pigments will fade if subjected to prolonged periods of direct sunlight.
