Purchase Guide

When purchasing artwork, you are not simply buying a physical object, you are acquiring a unique, original creation that carries artistic, cultural, and potential financial value. To ensure clarity and fairness, the following framework outlines pricing, payment options, and ownership rights.

Pricing Strategy

  • Transparency: Each artwork is priced based on size, medium, complexity, and the artist’s current market position.

  • Consistency: Prices are non-negotiable to ensure fairness across collectors and to protect the long-term value of the work.

  • Market Considerations: Pricing reflects both material and creative investment, as well as exhibition history and demand.

Sales & Payment Options

  • Full Payment: Payment in full is required prior to the release of the artwork, unless otherwise agreed.

  • Deposit Option: A 50% non-refundable deposit may be made to reserve a work, with the remaining balance due before collection or shipping.

  • Payment Plans: Flexible instalment plans (typically over 2–6 months) are available upon request for works above a certain value. The artwork will be released upon receipt of the final payment.

  • Accepted Methods: Bank transfer, PayPal, and credit/debit cards (processing fees may apply).

Ownership & Rights

  • Transfer of Ownership: Ownership of the physical artwork transfers to the client only after full payment has been received.

  • Artist’s Rights: The artist retains all copyright and reproduction rights unless otherwise agreed in writing. The client may not reproduce, distribute, or use the artwork for commercial purposes without prior permission.

  • Resale Clause (Optional): Should the collector wish to resell the artwork, the artist reserves the right to be notified and/or to receive a resale royalty in accordance with applicable regulations.

Delivery & Shipping

  • Collection: Artwork may be collected in person by arrangement.

  • Shipping: Packaging and shipping can be arranged at an additional cost. 

  • Responsibility: Risk of loss or damage transfers to the client once the artwork leaves the studio or gallery, unless insured.

Returns & Cancellations

  • Due to the unique nature of original artwork, all sales are final.

  • Deposits are non-refundable.

  • Exceptions may only be considered in cases of damage during insured transit.
