On-line Buying

If you wish to buy an original painting, you are encouraged to arrange a viewing of  the painting in person. Contact me at Creative Designs of Blowing Rock if you wish to arrange a viewing. If viewing the painting in person is not possible, I would be happy to e-mail you a high-resolution digital image to help with your purchase decision. I am also willing to send you any two detailed views you might like. When you purchase an original painting,

Although viewing art "on-line" can never take the place of enjoying a painting or sculpture "up close and personal" at a gallery, you can't beat the convenience of shopping on your computer in the comfort of your own home. Why shouldn't buying art on-line work the same way? As a consumer myself, I am not only concerned about the security of my purchase but also the ultimate satisfaction with the product I receive. Like you, I want my purchases kept confidential and I want the goods I get to be "as advertised" and in perfect condition.  That is why I offer a number of methods for payment, a reliable and reasonable assurance of safe and on-time shipment, and my pledge to meet your expectations of a satisfactory transaction.

Although I am looking into offering direct on-line purchasing via PayPal©, this feature is not yet available on this website. 

ABOUT PRINTS

You will be notified if your order will take longer to ship than we estimated at the time of your confirmation notice. I have two types of prints to offer, Giclées and digitals. A relatively new printing technique called Giclée, ("zhee-klay")

offers museum-quality reproductions that rival the original artwork in brilliance, color clarity and indistinguishable likeness. Digital prints are similar in printing process but with slightly less quality of inks. Therefore, as you can see the two types of prints are priced differently. A third process may be used in the future. These digital prints are done photographically and offer a mat finished image of superb quality. This type of print will be designated as a "Photographic Print".
