SHIPPING - US, CANADA, INTERNATIONAL: I use UPS Ground for US orders, and USPS Priority Mail International for International Orders including Canada. Due to shipping size restrictions imposed by the shipping carriers, canvases larger than 24x48" will incur "Oversized Shipping" rates within the US. These rates can be quoted for extra large canvases if needed. For "International Oversized Shipping" - Canvas sizes which exceed 24x48" - need to be shipped using a third party carrier (please see below). A phone number is required for Canada and International orders, please provide in the message area at checkout.
CUSTOMS: The receiver is responsible for any customs / duties fees imposed by their country. This is normally not the case, as "hand-painted, original, paintings" usually are not eligible for duties to be charged, but each country is different.
DELIVERY TIMES (US):
ORIGINAL Available Paintings - Ships within 1-3 days / then 3-7 days delivery time.
PRINT - Ships within 1-3 days of order / then 3-7 days delivery time.

AUSTRALIA-
FOR ORDERS TO AUSTRALIA / INTERNATIONAL "OVERSIZED" SHIPPING: To keep costs from exceeding the normal $400-600 shipping charge when shipping directly through DHL and FEDEX, a third party forwarder is required. Your painting will still be delivered via DHL or FEDEX within 6-12 business days. Utilizing the shipping forwarder is the only way to keep your costs down. Please contact with the link of the painting that you are interested in, your postal code, and I will provide a quote, and a link to the forwarder for you to create an account. Once your account is created with the forwarder, you will then return to the listing, and proceed with checkout.
