All original items in my shop are created by me and are one of a kind. Once made they cannot be exactly reproduced, however, I can create archival prints of most of my sold and existing paintings.

Images shown here, especially paintings, may differ slightly in hue, color and lightness due to variations on individual computer monitors. I suggest clicking the enlarged view before you purchase to see the item in more detail.

Watermarks shown in images are only in the digital form as copyright protection and will not be present on the original, unless noted in the description.

The artist retains all reproduction rights and copyrights to the artwork in this shop even after sale. The images, originals and reproductions may not be reproduced without the artist's express written consent.

All paintings and ACEO cards on this site are painted from memory, I do not work from life or photographs except for the occasional animal portrait.

Pricing is based on size and complexity of the work as well as the quality of the finished item. Some items may go on sale or have reduced prices if they have been in my shop a long time.

All paintings and prints are made using archival quality papers, inks and paint so you can enjoy your new art for a lifetime. It is recommended that artwork not be hung in direct sunlight.

I work in a smoke free environment, but I do have dogs that keep me company for those with allergy issues.

I do sell wholesale for some items in my Etsy shop to verified accounts, please contact me for more information.
