Shipping Policy

Last updated: November 2025

Thank you so much for supporting my artwork! Every order means a lot to me, and I take great care in preparing and packaging each piece so it arrives safely and beautifully.

Processing Time

Each order is prepared by hand.  Please allow 5–10 business days for me to carefully package and ship your artwork. To minimize waste and storage needs, my art prints are produced on demand. That means your print is made especially for you after you order — no mass production, no leftover stock.

My print partner uses museum-quality materials and sustainable packaging whenever possible, ensuring each piece looks beautiful and lasts a lifetime.

Custom or made-to-order pieces may take a little longer — if so, I’ll keep you updated along the way.

Shipping Costs

As an independent artist, I’m not able to offer free shipping at this time.
Shipping costs are calculated at checkout based on your location and the size or weight of the package. I always do my best to find reliable and affordable shipping options.

Shipping Within Canada

All orders ship from Vancouver, BC, usually through Canada Post.
Delivery typically takes 3–10 business days, depending on your location. You’ll receive tracking information as soon as your order is on its way.

International Shipping

I’m happy to ship worldwide!
Delivery times vary depending on your country and local postal service — generally 2–4 weeks.
Please note: Buyers are responsible for any customs duties, taxes, or import fees charged by their country.

Packaging & Handling

Your artwork will be packaged securely and with care:

• Prints are shipped flat or rolled in sturdy tubes.

• Original artworks are wrapped, padded, and boxed carefully to protect them during transit.
  Whenever possible, I reuse or recycle shipping materials to reduce environmental impact.

Tracking & Delivery

You’ll receive a tracking number once your order ships so you can follow its progress.
Please double-check that your shipping address is correct when placing your order — I can’t be responsible for items lost due to an incorrect address.

Damaged or Lost Items

If your artwork arrives damaged, please contact me within 7 days of delivery with photos of the packaging and item.
I’ll work with you to find the best solution — whether that’s a replacement (for prints) or assistance with a postal claim (for originals).
Unfortunately, I can’t be responsible for packages marked as “Delivered” by the carrier but not received.

Local Pickup

If you’re near Vancouver, BC, I’d be happy to arrange a local pickup to save on shipping costs. Just reach out before placing your order so we can coordinate.
