How do I care for my artwork?

I create all my art, whether it's an original, canvas print, or paper print, using high-quality materials that are made to last. With a bit of care, your piece will last for many years. Here’s what I recommend for each type of art.

Originals

My originals are painted with high-quality acrylics on canvas and carefully sealed. This gives them protection against sunlight, water, dust, and other elements they might encounter at home. They are made to last, but remember they still respond to their surroundings.

Keep them out of direct sunlight and avoid damp rooms like bathrooms or steamy kitchens. Dust them occasionally with a soft, dry microfiber cloth. Do not use water or cleaning products, and avoid leaning anything against the canvas surface.

Canvas prints

The same basic rules apply to canvas prints. Keep them away from direct sunlight and moisture. Use a soft cloth or feather duster from time to time for cleaning. Never spray anything directly onto the canvas.

Paper prints

Paper prints are the most delicate of the three, which is why framing behind glass is essential. It protects the surface from dust, UV light, and moisture. Once framed, they are well protected. Just avoid touching the print surface directly and keep them out of direct sunlight.

Any questions?

Feel free to reach out. I’m always happy to assist you with whatever you need.
