Where do you ship? +

Everywhere. Paintings have gone to collectors across the UK, Europe, the US and beyond. Shipping is free, insured and professionally packed.

How long does it take? +

Roughly 2–3 weeks. Need it sooner? Priority studio queue is available with a 3-day turnaround for an extra £145 — same uncompromised quality, just bumped to the top of the list.

What if I don't like it? +

Once your painting is finished, I'll send photos for your approval before it ships, and I'm happy to make any adjustments at that stage. On top of that, every commission carries a full money-back guarantee, so you can order with complete confidence.

Can you work from an old or low-quality photo? +

Usually, yes. Old family photographs, screenshots, snaps taken on a phone — I have worked from all of them. Send what you have and I will tell you honestly if it is enough to work from.

Are there financing options? +

Financing is available through Klarna (UK) and Shop Pay Instalments (US & Canada). Just select your preferred option at checkout to pay in interest-free instalments. Subject to eligibility and approval.
