Notes About Purchasing Artwork
Artwork info: An asterisk next to the bird’s name (*) means that the original painting and/or prints are for sale in my online shop. (Click on the bird’s photo or shop here.) Dimensions in the photo captions describe the original artwork; prints may be offered in various sizes. (“Prints” are reproductions made from photos or scans of the original artwork that are printed on paper. That’s why they’re so much less expensive than originals.
If you’re interested in a painting that doesn’t look like it’s for sale, ask me about it! Some aren’t listed in my shop either because I don’t consider them finished, or because I ran out of time and patience today. :) Or I sold the original, but can maybe create prints for you.
Pricing: I’m experimenting with a sliding scale of prices. When you make a purchase, decide which number feels right for your economic situation + your love of the artwork + your commitment to supporting independent artists.
Wanna go digital? Interested in a high-res digital file of my artwork to download and print at home or use as a screensaver? Please contact me! I’m determining whether there’s a market for this (other than people stealing images off of the web), especially during this pandemic.
Thanks, From All Twenty of Us
Stay safely distanced and sanitized, and greet a local (living) corvid today! :)
Cheers and caws,
Pam (and crow crew)
