FAQ's
Are the prints archival?
My fine art prints are designed to last, and are only printed on archival fine art papers using processes that maintain the details of my work. You will not be disappointed, the print is breathtaking and holds the highest details that are contained in the image.

How long will my print take to arrive?
If your Fine Art Prints are coming from my dropshipping fulfillment please allow up to 2 weeks for your order to be dispatched, however, the majority of orders will be dispatched within a few days. You will receive tracking information the moment your order is dispatched.
If they are coming from my studio the time will be a little longer and they will be delivered in 3-4 weeks. All purchases are sent via tracked & insured shipping services.

What are the dispatch policies?
For the UK, EU, and the rest of the world (ROW), items up to 42cm on the long edge (A3 size) are sent flat in an envelope, while anything larger is shipped rolled in a tube. For the US, anything larger than 12"x16" will be sent in a tube. This policy helps ensure that items are shipped in the most appropriate and safe manner based on their size and destination.
