5 out of 5 starsThis pendant is very pretty. Seeing it brings back so many memories of Marshall Fields. The seller is very kind and delivery was quick.

5 out of 5 starsI just received my print of your beautiful painting of the Chicago river from west of Merch Mart. I moved to Chicago for grad school years ago and recently left Illinois. I have a need for a "window" in my new office and there was nothing I'd rather look at than the view from the brown line going over the river to the loop. Your print was the closest I found to that view, but I was somewhat hesitant to buy because it seems like there's a lot of stuff available on Etsy that isn't actually the work of creatives. I'm so pleased to have gotten this print (which is gorgeous and will have a prominent spot in my new office) as well as your handwritten note. Thank you!

About ArtdeJoie
-
-
First, I paint the clouds and sky. Second, I draw the main buildings and establish the horizon. -
Third, I either color-block the whole scene or jump in on the building detail starting in the upper left-hand corner. -
Next, I continue painting details from the upper left to lower right. -
Almost done, I start working on the foreground detail. This is the fun part! -
Finished!

Frequently asked questions
If I am a local Chicagoland customer, can I pick up my purchase?
Yes, I do offer a pick up option at my Skokie studio and shipping charges will be refunded at that time.
Can paper prints be rolled?
No. My limited edition paper prints are of the highest quality and can not be rolled or bent. They ship flat in protective cardboard.
Do you take commissions?
Only if I can use my own reference photography or paint your subject locally en plein air so I retain full copyright protection. I do not work from other people's photography or illustrations.
Can I order an image in another size?
No. All available print sizes are already listed.
Do you ship Internationally?
Sorry - not anymore due to GDPR, rising USPS International mail costs, and International mail fraud (supposed non-deliveries). I am so sad about this as used to love the global eCommerce community we used to enjoy here 10 years ago. :(
