Size: 24 X 36 Inches - Stretched To Save You REAL Money - May Be Hung With Or Without A Frame

BUYER BEWARE ******  DO NOT BE FOOLED

Many paintings on the internet created on canvas sold by others will arrive rolled up in a cardboard tube.  This allows these sellers to avoid the significant expense of stretching your painting, as well as the larger cost of shipping your painting in stretched form. How nice of them!  Floppy canvases must be stretched taut onto backing frames known as stretcher bars before framing or hanging without a frame.

All of our paintings are stretched and ready to either frame or to hang as-received   We include in your price the extra cost of shipping a large (up to 36X48X3 inches) package by Fedex, and we also include the cost of stretching your paintings.

Thus, should your painting arrive in a tube, you are faced with the additional expense of  properly stretching and mounting your floppy canvas on stretcher bars.  Recent quotations for stretching paintings from national chain and from local framers range from $95.00 for a 24X36 inch painting to $150.00 for a very large 36X48 inch painting.  So you can figure out how much you save by paying us a little extra for our already stretched paintings. You also save the hassle of finding someone to stretch your paintings, delivering them and then picking them up days or weeks later.

This is a genuine hand painted individual oil painting, not a print on canvas (often given the French name of "giclee" for added perceived value) . It began life as a bare piece of canvas. Then, a talented young artist worked his magic by hand with brushes, oil paints on a palette, and a container of linseed oil. The result is a truly individual work of art, ready to frame that you will be proud of and enjoy for many years.  NOTE: If hung as - received, edge staples and some partly painted canvas on the edges may be visible when viewed from an angle at close distance.  Not gallery wrapped.

You will find three images above.   The first is the painting itself, and the second is a detailed close up of a small area that illustrates the brush strokes and the texture of the paint and canvas. The third is a view of the back side of a painting, illustrating the stretcher bar backing frame to which your painting is attached.
