ORIGINALS
Q. When will original paintings be available?
A. Occassionally, I will create a piece of art for myself,
for the pleasure of the experience. Sometimes, if I can force myself
to part with the piece, I will offer it for sale. These are far
and few between as I am usually so spiritually attached to my pieces
that it is very difficult for me to part with it.

LIMITED EDITION PRINTS
Q. What are Limited Edition Prints?
A. Limited edition prints are high quality copies of an original
piece of artwork that have been printed in a limited quantity, such
as 50, 100 or 500. These prints are hand signed and numbered by
the artist and come with a Certificate
Of Authenticity (COA). Due to the limited printing run and hand
signing, limited edition prints are considered more collectible
and valuable than a standard artwork print.

OPEN ENDED PRINTS
Q. What is an Open Ended Print? What is the difference
between a Limited Edition and an Open Ended Print?
A. An open ended print is a high quality copy of an original
piece of artwork printed in mass quantity. Since open ended prints
are not printed in a limited quantity and are not hand signed by
the artist, they are not considered as collectable as limited edition
prints. All my artwork, including open ended prints, come with a
Certificate Of Authenticity (COA)
to show that it was legally purchased directly from the artist.

store and offer a limited selection of various art merchandise.
At sometime in the future, I will also make art merchandise available
directly from this website. See my Emporium
page for more details.

piece of art, or art merchandise. Please read the Certificate
