Some items that cost less than $100 have an additional $5.00 added to the 15% of the retail price to cover the shipping expense. Hawaii, Alaska, and Puerto Rico shipping rates are calculated at a higher rate, and oversized pieces are calculated at a percentage rate plus the $75 oversized fee that we have to pay to the shipping carrier.

UPS/USPS Undeliverable Packages and Refused Packages - If your order is returned to us by Fed Ex, UPS or USPS because the delivery was rejected, refused, the package was unclaimed or the shipping address you provided at the time of your order was incorrect, the return shipping fees charged to us by the shipper, in addition to the original shipping costs and the 20% restocking fee, will be deducted from any refund amount. If you decide you want us to re-ship your previously undeliverable order, we will only do so after charging your credit card for a second set of shipping fees to cover the costs of the repeat outbound shipment.

GLOSSARY - ART TERMS

Enhanced - a technique whereby an artist paints textural highlights on a canvas reproduction, replicating the texture of paint that would be found on an original painting. Enhancing can be done with either paint or a clear gel. Each canvas is enhanced one at a time and by hand, so no two enhanced images are ever exactly identical.

Giclée - (pronounced "jhee-clay") is a French term meaning "to spray", which properly describes the method used to apply the ink to the surface of this fine art product. By using the artist's original work of art and state-of-the-art digital technology, each edition is carefully produced to match the color and detail of the original as closely as possible. Each giclée is created one at a time. Up to 12 different colored inks are used, making the depth and richness of color more true to the original than what can be achieved with traditional lithography printing. Giclées can be produced on cotton canvas or fine, acid-free art paper. Giclées on canvas must be stretched tight on a wood frame, much like a canvas for an original painting would be stretched. They are framed like an original painting, with an outside moulding and often a canvas liner. Paper giclées can be mounted and matted in the same manner as any paper print.

Because giclées are made one at a time, editions are produced in small quantities and each giclée has its own unique characteristics.

Limited Edition - a print of a specified size and format where the quantity of prints to be produced is predetermined prior to publication. Once that quantity has been produced, the edition is closed, and in the case of lithographs, the printing plates are destroyed. Limited edition prints bear the signature of the artist, are hand numbered with a sequence number (50/95 would designate the fiftieth print in a press run of 95), and are issued with a Certificate of Authenticity by the publisher.

Fine art– To be called fine art, the artwork must meet stringent standards. Inks & paper have to be PH neutral and everything, including frame, must be acid free. Fine art must stand the test of time – minimum 100 to 200 years. Fine art standards require the use of the best ink, pigments and paper. Fine art should be the best the industry can offer.

Strata Design- A Strata Design is a lithograph print, mounted on board, and sealed under a clear, scratch resistant, UV protected layer. This type of process allows us to frame the image without glass, the same way we would frame a canvas or original painting.

Lithograph- a print produced on a printing press using offset lithography. This traditional method of printing color images uses 4 inks - magenta, yellow, cyan (blue) and black - to produce the entire range of colors in a print. Printed on paper, lithographs are matted and framed behind glass.

Master Canvas - A canvas transfer print. This special process involves disolving the paper back of a lithograph, and transfering the ink layer onto a stretched canvas surface. The result provides the texture of canvas, much like an original painting would have.

Open edition - an art reproduction having no limit to the number of prints that can be produced; however, the publisher may choose to no longer produce the image, making it "sold out." Open editions may or may not bear the artist's signature, but are never numbered.
