Frequently Asked Questions
Are you accepting commissions?
Yes, although I do consider commissions on a case by case basis. Please email spaineart@gmail.com with the size painting you are thinking of, a high quality version of the photo or inspiration, and what you love most about the photo. We can then discuss rates, timeline, and answer any questions you may have! Don’t hesitate to reach out, I am more than happy to guide you through this process.
How much does shipping cost?
Shipping is $25 for all customers in the United States or Canada. International shipping is available at a higher rate. This fee helps to cover insurance on the artwork being shipped as well. If you are in Maine and would like to pick up a piece in person we can arrange this and waive the fee.
Once I purchase a painting, how long will it be before it ships to me?
I plan to ship all purchased works within 2-3 business days of purchase. U.S. holidays may affect this timeline. Once an order ships I will contact you via email with shipping and tracking information.
If you have ordered a custom frame, I estimate 5-7 business days total for the frame to be built, painted or stained, and shipped to you.
What kind of wood are the custom floating frames made of?
The custom frames are made of high quality Eastern White Pine harvested in the state of Maine.
Who makes your custom Eastern White Pine floating frames?
A local Maine master woodworker crafts and assembles each frame.
What is your policy on returning artwork?
I want anyone who purchases my art to be 100% satisfied with their decision. Try my art in your home for 30 days and if you decide not to keep it just contact me via email and I will arrange for return shipping and a complete refund.
How do you protect oil paintings from damage?
Each original artwork is varnished with a high-quality Gamvar Gloss to guarantee long-lasting color and seal the painting from damage that may occur over time.
Is sales tax included in the price listed on each piece?
The Maine sales tax rate of 5.5% is added to each purchase at checkout.
