Sardine Study No. 2 · 8×10

Every original painting is identified by title, medium, size, and artist on the back and includes a signed and dated Certificate of Authenticity affixed to the back of the artwork.

Optional framing is available for select original paintings and is purchased separately as a frame add-on.

Handcrafted solid oak and maple floating frames are hand made by me specifically for my 1/8" hardwood painting panels. These frames are intended for permanent mounting; once installed, the artwork is securely affixed to the frame and removal may damage the painting.

Select paintings may also be offered with a carefully sourced antique-gold-style frame.

All original oil paintings are framed without glass or acrylic so the texture, brushwork, and surface of the painting remain fully visible.

Please choose a frame add-on that matches the size of your artwork. Exact frame dimensions and compatibility details are listed on each frame add-on product page.

If a compatible frame add-on is purchased with your painting, the artwork will arrive framed and ready to display.

Please note: All framing options are intentionally offered without glass or acrylic. Original oil paintings are best displayed uncovered, allowing the texture, brushwork, and depth of the paint to be fully appreciated without a barrier between the artwork and the viewer.

Each painting is carefully packaged to protect it throughout its journey to you. Artwork is securely wrapped and cushioned, with special attention given to protecting painted surfaces, edges, and frames during transit.

Framed and unframed artwork is packaged appropriately for its size and configuration so it arrives safely and ready to enjoy.

Ready-to-ship original paintings are typically packaged and shipped within 1–2 business days.

For original paintings that are individually painted after purchase, please allow approximately 3–4 days for painting and an additional 3–4 days for the artwork to dry before it is carefully packaged and shipped.

Once your order ships, tracking information will be provided.

To help preserve your original artwork for years to come, display it away from direct sunlight, excessive heat, and high humidity. If needed, gently remove surface dust with a clean, soft, dry brush or cloth. Avoid water, household cleaners, or other cleaning products on the painted surface.

With simple care, your painting can be enjoyed for generations.

Every effort is made to photograph each painting as accurately as possible and to represent its true colors, texture, and details. Please keep in mind that colors may vary slightly depending on your screen, device, and display settings.

Additional photos are included whenever possible to show the artwork’s texture, scale, and appearance in different lighting.
