Buying a painting is more than just acquiring a piece of art; it’s about finding a connection, adding a special touch to your life and securing a legacy for future generations. Here’s a simple guide to help you navigate the process:
Step 1: Explore
Begin your journey by delving into the captivating narratives of inspiring women featured in my “Herstories” section. Whether it’s the pioneering spirit of Caresse Crosby or the resilience of Eunice Newton Foote, let their stories inspire you. Once you’ve found a herstory that resonates, head over to my online store or catalog to explore available artworks and their respective series and costs.
Step 2: Consider size and fit
Artwork sizes can vary, and it’s essential to consider how the painting will fit into your space. To get a better sense of scale, try cutting out a piece of newspaper or a garbage bag in the size of the painting you have in mind. This simple tip can help you visualize how the artwork will look in your desired location.
Step 3: Schedule a visit or Zoom meeting
If you’re in the neighborhood of my atelier in Amsterdam, consider scheduling a studio visit to see the artworks in person. For those unable to visit, we can arrange a Zoom meeting to provide a closer look at the paintings. Don’t delay, as each painting is unique, and some may sell quickly after being published.
Step 4: Make Your Purchase
Once you’re satisfied with your choice, you can purchase the artwork either online or manually by contacting me. You’ll receive an invoice, and if paying in one go is challenging, feel free to inquire about spreader payment options.
Step 5: Shipping Considerations
If you’re picking up the artwork from my atelier in Amsterdam, there’s no charge. However, if you require shipping, please note that it can be costly due to proper packaging, insurance, and safe transportation. International shipping may also incur additional duties and surcharges that are not included, so please reach out to discuss options before making your purchase.
By following these five steps, you’ll be well on your way to finding the perfect painting to adorn your space and bring that something special into your life.
