Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

First, please know that I do not take your support lightly. I cannot think of a greater compliment than your enjoyment of my work. It is an honor for you to let me know that my work resonated with you and/or that you are considering the inclusion of one of my prints in your collection.

Secondly, all of the images on the website are copyrighted by me – all rights reserved. My images should not appear online, on your website, be printed, or used in any way unless we have made an agreement and you have written permission from me stating you have permission to use the image. All of the images are available for purchase and/or licensing and I am happy to discuss possible purchase and/or licensing options.

+ WHAT ARE FINE ART PRINTS?

My Fine Art Prints are non-edition images printed on archival, fine art papers. All prints include a one-inch border for matting and framing purposes.

+ WHAT ARE SIGNATURE PRINTS?

These are my “special” prints, printed on archival fine art paper with a one-inch border on each side. I sign and edition each image. They are limited in quantity; or, in the fine art world, “Editions”. Once the Edition is complete, no more prints of that image will be printed. The Edition size depends on the image, but typically range from 10 to 25 in number with a total of 5 artist proofs. The pricing of Editions depends on the image, as well as the size print of the image. The images selected as Signature Prints will only be available as Signature Prints and will not be sold in other formats. Again, please contact me and let’s work together on the best option that meets your needs. You can send an email through the Contact tab on the navigation tool bar, or suzan@shadesofsiennastudio dot com.

+ Do you offer framing?

All prints are sold unmated and unframed. Matting and framing are available upon request and include a museum quality mat, a wood frame, and museum glass (or plexi-) glazing. Contact me to discuss the additional fees associated with framing.

+ Can I Purchase Images That Are Not Currently On You Website?

If you do not see the image which interests you on the website, please let me know and I will post the image for you, or work with your directly if possible.

The except is that if it is a complete edition, no additional prints will be made.

+ Do you Discount Your Prices?

All prices reflect the same price of any gallery I may be currently associated with so there is no discrepancy. In other words, I do not sell at a lower price than the galleries that represent me and my work. Why don't I discount prices you might ask? Because, I still believe in applying the "Golden Rule" to my life, as well as my business. That's my choice. I would much rather develop a relationship with my valued collectors (you), as well as the businesses that support me. Discounting any of my work does a disservice to my valued collectors who have invested in adding my work to their collection, and weakens my creditability all at the same time.

+ Are Your Images Available for Licensing?

Select images are available for appropriate licensing, editorial, and book cover usage.

To discuss licensing options, please get in touch with me using the contact form on the navigation tool bar (or send an email to: suzan@shadesofsiennastudio dot com) and describe your project.
