Processing Time
Most artworks are made to order and due to processing times to print, dry and frame original pieces, the expected turnaround times for original works is 10 working days + 1-2 days for delivery. Please add your deadline date on your order form so I can do my best to meet your special day!
Size and Finish Original Etching
Due to the delicate nature of this method of printmaking and the artists’ style, each print has individual qualities; different ink tones, mark making and textures will differ from piece to piece, but each one has been selected by the artist to be included in the edition. Please also note that the gold leaf, being a composition of metals, should not be hung or stored in a damp or incredibly hot or cool space.
