How

the size of the piece. The prices of the paintings, prints,

customers are responsible for insured
shipping charges.

Original paintings shown on this website are generally available

works are displayed on this site to offer ideas for painting

but in rare instances an artwork marked available may have
just sold. To make a purchase or inquire about any of the
artwork shown on this website, please contact

How
is the Artwork Shipped?
All art works are carefully packed, insured, and shipped
by ground with common carriers such as USPS Priority Mail,
Federal Express or UPS. If the work is oversized and unable
to be shipped via common carrier, we can make arrangements
to send the order via a carrier who specializes in packaging
and shipping artwork. We have more information about shipping
available on Jennifer's blog.
To
the buyer, we ask that you please make arrangements to be
home when your package is due to arrive. The carrier should
make up to 3 delivery attempts, but if no arrangements are
made to receive the package on the 3rd attempt, the shipment
will likely be returned to us, the sender. We can make arrangements
to re-ship the package, but at that point the buyer will
have to assume further shipping costs. You should inspect
the shipment on arrival. If a work is damaged, please call
us immediately concerning the damages so that we can report
it to the carrier within 48 hours of receipt of shipment.

How
Much Does Shipping Cost?
Standard
packing & shipping costs are based on the size of the
artwork and the type of packaging necessary. Because framing
adds several inches and additional weight to the overall
picture dimensions, framed art incurs higher packing &
shipping costs than unframed or gallery wrapped artwork.
The price charts below represent our charges for packing,
insurance, and shipping within the continental U.S. for
framed and unframed originals,
and unframed limited edition gicleé
prints, respectively*. We do offer a savings for
combined shipping if you are purchasing more than one piece
of artwork. Shipments may be expedited for an additional
charge. Please contact us
for more information. Any shipping costs are prepaid at
the time of purchase.

Is
the artwork framed?
Jennifer
offers both gallery wrapped paintings and paintings done
on standard profile canvases. Gallery wrapped canvases have
a 1.5" profile and are painted out to the edges on
all four sides. These paintings are offered unframed, being
complete as they are and ready to hang. You may also frame
them through your own framing source, should you wish to
do so.
The
regular profile paintings are done either on stretched canvas
or canvas-mounted wood panels. You have the option to purchase
these works framed or unframed, unless otherwise noted on
the individual art work pages. In most cases the available
frame is a gallery quality wood frame with a gold metal
leaf finish. Please contact us
to verify what frame offering is available for the painting
you are interested in purchasing. Keep in mind that shipping
costs can be reduced by purchasing the work unframed. Also,
since framing is an important component of how a work of
art is presented (which is largely based on personal taste),
the owner of an art work is often the best person to select
the frame.

What
is your return policy?
First, we're delighted that some of Jennifer's collectors
have shared their testimonials
about Jennifer's art and their art buying experience!
Here is our guarantee:
Feedback from our clients
tells us that the actual art work far exceeds the viewing
experience of the images you see online. And while we do
our utmost to display images with clarity and color accuracy,
we realize that viewing art on the web still has its limitations
and challenges. Therefore we are happy to accept returns
within 14 calendar days of receipt, if for any reason you
are not pleased with what you receive*. This policy also
extends to commissioned artworks, except in the rare instances
where the artists deems the commission too specialized to
offer for resale. (*Sorry, but at this time, we cannot accept
returns on special ordered limited
edition giclée prints.)
When
returning artwork, please ensure that it is professionally
packed, insured and shipped with tracking number. If the
artwork and framing is in its original condition we will
gladly guarantee a full refund for the purchase price.
Costs for adequate packing, insurance, and shipping on
returned items are the responsibility of the buyer.
Please contact us before
returning any items.
