How is my payment handled?
You can pay using your regular debit/credit card, all payments are taken through Stripe in British Pounds Sterling. You do not need to have a Stripe account to purchase. I do not store any of your debit/credit card details.
I’m not in the UK, how can I buy a painting?
I’d be happy to help. Send me an email or use the contact form to tell me which painting you’re interested in. You’ll need to give me your address so I can get a shipping quote and we can take it from here. Remember though that you’re then 100% responsible for any import tax when the painting arrives, and that I cannot offer a refund for paintings shipped outside the UK.

On receipt of payment I will send out your painting asap. This is usually within 2 or 3 days. I will email you when it is on the way with details of carrier, any tracking number, etc.
I ship to the UK and use either Royal Mail tracked or Parcelforce tracked. Orders are normally delivered 2-3 working days after dispatch. Please allow up to 7 working days.
I have placed my order, how soon will I receive my painting?
Original paintings will be packed and shipped within 5 working days. Within the UK pieces are sent by Royal Mail, Parcel Force or courier depending on size and weight. Most UK deliveries arrive within 2 days from time of shipping. Please allow 7 working days in total.

At this time I am unable to offer a refund or return on any painting(s) sent outside of the UK.
Policy re: EU
Currently (May 2024) it’s not clear what extra charges will be made for EU customers therefore, I have removed EU countries from the checkout options.

What if my painting arrives and I don’t like it?
I want you to be fully happy with your new artwork so I offer a return agreement.
If a painting is not as you expect, you have 14 days to contact me by email and request a refund. Once a return has been agreed, you are responsible for packing and arranging return delivery using the same service it was sent to you. Once the piece has been safely returned I will refund your payment within 14 days, minus the my shipping cost and Stripe charge.
At this time I am unable to offer a refund or a return on any painting / greeting cards sent outside of the UK.
