Order Processing
Processing times vary depending on the type of product ordered:
Original Artwork: In-stock original paintings are generally prepared for shipment within 3–5 business days.
Fine Art Prints: Our fine art prints are produced to order. Please allow approximately 5–7 business days for production and processing before shipment.
DIY Art Kits & Alchemy Boxes: In-stock creative kits are generally prepared for shipment within 2–4 business days.
Business days exclude weekends and major holidays.
During busy seasons or periods of high order volume, processing may take slightly longer. We will communicate significant delays whenever possible.
Shipping Rates & Delivery
Shipping rates are calculated at checkout based on package weight, destination, and available shipping services.
We primarily ship through the United States Postal Service (USPS).
Estimated delivery times are provided by the shipping carrier and begin after your order has been processed and shipped.
Please note that processing time and shipping transit time are separate.
Fine Art Print Packaging
Fine art prints are carefully packaged to help protect them during shipping.
Depending on the print size and fulfillment provider, prints may arrive flat or rolled in protective packaging.
Prints may be shipped separately from other items in your order.
Original Artwork Packaging
Original paintings are individually packaged with appropriate protective materials.
Because original artwork varies in size and dimensions, packaging and shipping requirements may differ by piece.
Complimentary Local Delivery
We are happy to offer complimentary local delivery within Ridgecrest, California, for eligible orders.
Customers can select local delivery at checkout when their delivery address qualifies.
We will coordinate delivery arrangements after your order has been placed.
Tracking Information
When tracking is available, shipping confirmation and tracking information will be provided after your order ships.
Shipping Delays
While we make every effort to process orders promptly, carrier delays, weather conditions, holidays, and other circumstances outside our control may affect delivery times.
If your order is significantly delayed, please contact us so we can help investigate.
Damaged or Missing Packages
Please inspect your order when it arrives.
If your package arrives damaged, defective, or incomplete, please contact us as soon as possible, preferably within 7 days of delivery.
Include your order number and photographs of the item and packaging when available.
If your shipment is lost or missing, please contact us so we can assist with investigating the issue.
Your rights under applicable consumer protection laws remain unaffected.
