Frequently Asked Questions
+ What comes with originals?
All original paintings include a signed Certificate of Authenticity detailing the artwork and confirming it as a one-of-a-kind piece for your collection. In addition, each original painting is accompanied by a mini Polaroid photograph of the artwork, which can be kept for personal records or insurance purposes. Both the Certificate of Authenticity and the mini Polaroid are included with the purchase of original paintings at no additional cost. These items are not included with prints, whether open or limited edition.

+ Will I Get a Certificate of Authenticity?
Original paintings and limited edition works include a signed Certificate of Authenticity to confirm their status and preserve the integrity and value of the artwork. Open edition prints do not include a certificate.
+ Will My Print Be Hand-Signed?
Yes. All prints are hand-signed by the artist on the back.
+ Why do you include the date each photograph was taken?
Each image represents a real, specific moment in time. Light, season, and lunar phase never repeat in exactly the same way, and the date anchors each photograph to its original context, preserving its honesty and conditions. At the same time, dates can carry personal meaning for the viewer, sometimes aligning with their own memories or significant moments in unexpected ways.
