Hi everyone and thank you for your interest in my artwork.
I really enjoyed working on this Porsche 911 Pop Art painting and just love how the contrasting colors and dynamic lines make the artwork pop!
Please note that the artwork(s) will be rolled and shipped unframed. In order to roll the artwork for shipping, the artwork is removed from its frame, rolled and then packaged to be shipped in a solid, sturdy postal tube.
When the artwork arrives at its destination, you simply re-frame it with the help of a local framer or art handler. On average, the amount of money to re-frame the artwork will be much less than the amount of money it would take to ship the artwork ‘ready-to-hang’. When done properly, this method is also much safer for the artwork and the chances of the artwork being damaged in transit are also much lower.
International shipping fees are $150 USD from my studio in South Africa.
Secure payments can be made through PayPal. Shipping comes with full online tracking and tracing. Delivery takes between 3 to 6 business days, depending upon destination and customs. I have successfully shipped artworks all over the world including the US, the UK, Canada, Australia, as well as countries across Europe and the Middle East.
If anyone has any further questions – please let me know and I will get back to you.
