Shipping and Handling:

Original art – We will ship Original art within 3-5 business days.

Art Prints – We will ship Prints within 5-8 business days.

We require a longer production time before shipping Giclée prints. This allows our production partner the time to carefully prepare your print with the highest production quality for your order based on your chosen size and substrate.

Returns:

Buyers may return undamaged artwork within 30 days of the date of sale. Buyers will be responsible for the cost of packaging and shipping to return the artwork to us. There will be a 15% restocking charge deducted from the amount of the return.

Buyers must advise us of artwork damaged in transit within 2 days of receipt of the artwork, showing that the shipping company was aware of the damage at the time of delivery. Buyers must consent to work with the Studio to resolve an insurance claim for damage. Following settlement of a claim the studio will issue a refund.

Tariffs, Import and Export Fees:

For sales outside of Canada – Buyers must establish for themselves if any tariffs or import fees apply at the time of purchase, as it may affect the final art pricing of your artwork.

For US customers – Based on U.S. Customs and Border Protection, Article 000001146, dated 2024-08-12, Original Paintings and Prints are exempt from import duties. The US Government may change these rules at any time. There is no clarity as to whether fine art will remain exempt.

Square Peg Art Studio will not accept responsibility for shipping costs to return art because of a failure of the buyer to check on prevailing regulations.

Payment Process:

The studio is establishing a new website payment process. While it is under development the following process applies:

The Buyer clicks the purchase button associated with an artwork in the Gallery to access an email form to complete the details of a purchase and submits the form.
The Buyer receives an online invoice for payment (using PayPal or a Credit/Debit card).
This payment process is an interim one, necessary to allow our technical staff time to complete the installation of our own Studio website payment process.

Printing of Prints:

After a purchaser has specified their choice of size and substrate, (Canvas or Fine Art Archival paper), and paid their invoice, we will print and ship the artwork.
