Questions?

What payments do you accept?

My preferred method of payment for online purchases is either Paypal or USPS Cashiers Checks .  For art show purchases, credit cards, checks and cash are accepted.

Do you ever teach workshops or classes?

I always say everybody can make art.  I’ve done group workshops with schools, birthday parties, and senior citizens groups.  There are so many fun projects that can be done with groups of kids and adults.  Please e-mail me if you are interested in rates for art workshops or classes.

I am also starting to teach eBay classed to anyone (artists included) who wants to learn how to sell on eBay.  For me, it has been a way to fill in the gaps between art shows and sell great stuff I find at the flea markets, garage sales, and thrift stores around where I live.  Please e-mail me if you are interested in rates for one-on-one eBay “HOW TO” classes.

Why don’t you do prints of your work?

I want everybody to be able to purchase my original art.  If I did prints, the paintings and art pieces that I make would no longer be one-of-a-kind pieces.  I have started to make necklaces with prints of some of my sold works so that is one way to be able to have a “print” of my work in a non-traditional way.

Do you sell your work wholesale?

Yes, I do sell my work wholesale, at 40% off retail price as long as the person buying the work has a tax ID number.

Do you ship your work?

Yes, I have tons of experience with shipping both artwork and other things.  Because I sell on eBay, I know the ins and outs of shipping.  Most artwork under 24”X30” is easily and inexpensively shipped via the US Postal Service.  The bigger pieces can be expensive to ship.  Please feel free to e-mail me for a quote for shipping costs.  I have accounts with the US Postal Service, Federal Express, and United Parcel Service (UPS).

Do you ever have open studio days and can we come see where you work?

I don’t really call anywhere in my house my studio, since I end up making art all over my house.  I do welcome visitors and love to show people my work and the work of other artists that my husband and I have collected over the years.  My house is full of color, like a beach house, only in Woodstock, GA.  I did my first in-home art open house in November of 2007, with lots of cupcakes and coffee (I’m a baker), and I’m planning for more of those, so if you would like to be included on the post card mailing list for those events, please feel free to e-mail me your mailing address.
