Purchase Information
-
I sell prints directly from various shows and exhibits that are always posted on my
exhibits page, however I can also produce
other print sizes, and I offer either bare prints, matted prints, or fully framed packages. The pricing for all of
those sizes and options is detailed further down on this page. If you see an image on my website or in a show that interests you, please
contact me. If you are in the immediate area, I can usually
deliver a print. If not, I can ship a matted or framed print to any US location.

With these materials, and if given the proper care, the prints should last at least
100 years without any noticeable changes, according to the latest accepted permanence tests.
Under no circumstance should the surface of the giclee print ever be touched. If unframed, the prints may be
interleaved with archival tissue paper and/or stored in archival polyester or polypropylene print sleeves. Bare
prints should never be exposed to direct sunlight or left exposed to the atmosphere for extended periods. Framed
prints should be kept assembled and out of the direct light, and should be cleaned with a slightly damp cloth
or an ammonia free glass cleaner if necessary.
