Yes, all wall art and clocks can be customised and changed to suit your requirements. Christopher is always open to new ideas and loves to design new art, especially for his customers. Please feel free to contact him through this website to discuss this further.

How do I clean my artwork?

Maintaining your artwork is easy. We recommend using a lint-free cloth with warm water only if there is a bad mark or stain.

We do recommend our customers handle using gloves or a hand towel. Once the art is up it mostly stays clean itself. Dust with a dry lint-free cloth if necessary. If you forget to use gloves try to remove any fingerprints or greese marks asap to avoid staining the aluminium. It's the oils in your fingers that react with the oxide in the aluminium. This can be easily avoided using the methods we suggest.

Do I have to have an account to purchase?

No, you can purchase your art as a guest but we hope you register for an account to help support us. Also, you will be the first to receive updates on new art projects and offers we release.

If you do not receive order confirmation within 24 hours of purchasing your order first check with your bank to make sure payment was made. Then contact us immediately so we can check your details and arrange confirmation.

How do I check if an item is in stock?

All items on my website are made to order the stock inventory is always set to 1 quantity. If the quantity is set to 0 don't threaten as you should be able to purchase the item. Sometimes this website will have higher quantities of stock on some items.

If you purchased artwork from Christopher, you will be sent an email asking you to review your artwork around 14 days after the purchase.
