All art services are for our existing or new customers in conjunction with a purchase only. We do not offer stand-alone art services.
Art Services
To our customers, we offer a wide variety of art services, many of which are included in the purchase of a work of art, for example, the local delivery and installation of your acquisition.
Should you need any extra services, they are usually billed by the hour. All-day and multi-day projects are priced upon request.
On occasion, during off-season, we can offer art services without a purchase based on availability. We would be happy to review your project. Due to liability limitations, we cannot accommodate every request, but we can usually recommend other art handlers if we cannot help you.

Crating & Shipping
We can help with the professional crating of your artwork for one-way shipping or permanent storage. We can also help with shipping your artwork or receiving it locally for delivery to your home and installation. We can handle your shipping project from pick-up, crating, filling out shipping papers, booking the shipment, or receiving your shipment and local delivery/installation.
We charge 20% on top of the cost of the crate to handle your crating project and we charge $125 for domestic shipping or $275 for international shipping plus the shipping charges at our cost, which are deeply discounted with many shippers like FedEx, DHL, or UPS. Local pick-up or delivery of items is charged on an hourly basis. We also have access to a network of specialized art shippers for fragile or high-value items.
Framing
We charge 20% on top of the cost of the frame for handling your framing project with our trusted wholesale framer. We gladly deliver your purchased item at no charge to any local framer of your choice, so that you may work with them directly if you prefer.
Storage
We offer short-term storage based on availability in one of our three air-conditioned warehouses. All items must be individually and professionally crated. If you require insurance we need to have a current appraisal or invoice as proof of value to our insurance.
