questions

What collectors ask.

If the answer is not here, write to the studio — a person replies.

Is the original the same image as the print?

Yes. Every print and digital edition is made from a high-resolution scan of the finished painting, so what you see is the work itself, not an interpretation of it. The difference is surface: an original has physical texture that no print can reproduce, and that is most of what you are buying when you buy the canvas.

Why do some works say 'enquire' instead of a buy button?

Above a certain figure a painting is placed by conversation. The studio would rather talk through condition, framing, shipping and hanging with you than have you commit four or five figures to a form. You will hear back personally, usually within a working day.

Are the editions really limited?

Where an edition size is stated, it is enforced by the system rather than by good intentions — the counter is decremented inside the payment transaction, and when it reaches the edition size the variant cannot be bought again. Open editions are labelled as open, with no number.

What does the certificate of authenticity actually do?

It carries a serial that resolves to a page on this site showing the work, the edition number, the date of issue and the name it was issued to. That makes provenance checkable by a future buyer, an insurer or a conservator, without needing to contact the studio.

Can I see a work in person before buying?

Sometimes. The studio arranges private viewings where the work happens to be, and can put together a private viewing room — a link showing a selection made for you, with notes and prices. Ask.

Do you take commissions?

A few a year, usually for a particular wall in a particular light. Commissions start with a conversation about scale, palette and where the work will live, and the studio will say no if the fit is wrong.

What may I do with a digital edition?

Print it as often as you like, at any size the resolution supports, for your own walls. You may not resell the file, license it on, or use it in a commercial project without the extended licence. The full terms are on the digital licence page.

Can I return a work?

Prints may be returned within fourteen days, unframed and unused. Originals are handled individually — if a painting is genuinely wrong in your room, write to the studio and it will be resolved. Digital editions cannot be returned once downloaded, which is why the previews are large.
