What's your return policy?

For Commissions:

Due to the highly personalized nature of commissioned artwork I cannot accept returns. However I am committed to ensuring your complete satisfaction. We will collaborate closely throughout the process, providing regular updates and opportunities for feedback to ensure the final piece exceeds your expectations.

For Paintings in the Shop:

Because each piece is unique all sales are final and we do not accept returns for paintings purchased online or in person.

How can I install the painting/mural once it arrives at my house?

Painting:

Unroll carefully: Lay the tube on a clean, flat surface and gently remove the end caps. Slowly unroll the painting being careful not to crease or damage the canvas.

Let it rest: Allow the painting to relax and flatten naturally for a few hours or overnight. This will help remove any curling or warping caused by being rolled up.

Framing (optional): If you prefer take the painting to a professional framer to have it stretched onto a frame or mounted and framed. This will protect the artwork and enhance its presentation.

Hanging: Once framed or mounted you can hang the painting on your wall using appropriate hanging hardware and techniques.

Mural:

Professional installation recommended: Due to their large size and potential complexity it is highly recommended to hire a professional art installer or art handler to install a mural. They have the experience and tools to properly handle and mount the artwork securely on the wall.

Prepare the wall: Before the installer arrives ensure the wall is clean, smooth and free of any damage. If necessary patch and paint the wall to provide a suitable surface for the mural.

Installation: The installer will carefully unroll the mural, stretch it (if needed) and mount it using appropriate adhesives or mounting techniques. They will ensure the mural is level and properly secured.

FAQs

Shipping & Returns

Paintings

What kind of paintings does Tony create?

I capture the essence of everyday life finding beauty and meaning in the ordinary. My work is often inspired by the people and places I encounter but it goes beyond simple representation.

Within my paintings you'll find layers of symbolism, hidden messages and reflections on humanity's ongoing struggle for good.

I often focus on urban landscapes and cityscapes but my true subjects are the stories that unfold within them - the fleeting moments of joy and sorrow, the quiet resilience of the human spirit and the enduring hope for a better world.

My preferred mediums include oil, watercolor and etchings.

Do you offer framing for your paintings?

I leave the framing up to the client.
