We Came So Far oil, pastel, acrylic goache, and charcoal on arches oil paper mounted on panel 33 x 24 We're born into our specific time and location- with its own set of cultural norms and realities. I've found myself trying to untangle these. Faced with nostalgia and engaged in personal reckoning, my paintings use broken color and line to create and then break the very figures I render. The surface becomes rich with layered marks as I scratch and draw into the paper. Slowly building the surface, I question more of my own understandings and those driving change. This forms a dialog between myself, those who have come before me, and those who will come. The women are never fully rendered or depicted as smooth and perfect; nostalgia lies- it was never perfect. Each painting also asks the overarching question "What would they say?" These women, standing near but not too close to a house, seem to say, "We came so far." And then, "But where are we going?" Those who came before us demand that we not forget or succumb to nostalgia; nostalgia for a past that was never designed with women's full potential in mind, that seems to be sweeping our country again.

Figurines for Marija Gimbutas stains and metallic paint on cartapesta 8.5 x 2.5 x 1.5 If I hadn't been an artist I would have been an archeologist. The woman I would have bowed to and chased on every dig was Gimbutas. Marija Gimbutas was archaeologist and anthropologist known for her research into the Neolithic and Bronze Age cultures. She theorized that the arrival of the Kurgs—the original Proto-Indo-Europeans-- shows how cultures of domination and patriarchy took over the Old European civilization which was centered around the worship of the Earth, The Great Goddess. To make the figurines, I first made small clay sculptures and wrapped them in paper, like 'mummies.' When paper and hardening agents dried, I pulled out the clay sculpture, repaired the wound, and then painted neolithic patterns, similar to the patterns Gimbutas found on pottery from her digs in Eastern Europe, on the figurines.

She Spoke Up XXIII, Ayanna Elizabeth Johnson charcoal on arches paper 22.5 x 30 The ‘She Spoke Up’ series began as a reaction to the destructive and inflamed political and social climates. With the cascading revelations of the Me Too movement, centennial anniversary of the adoption of the 19th Amendment, surreal landscape of the Covid pandemic unfolding, and the incessant assault on democracy by our elected politicians, I chose to elevate the work and words of women who have spoken truth to power, pursued freedom and equity, and transformed the broader world. Collectively the series stands as a response to so much misogyny, ill intent, sexism and obstruction. Parrot fish, symbolizing adaptability, possibility and freedom, are potent symbols of creative potential, and the world’s intricacies and healing mechanisms. I integrated specific bird and natural imagery into each work in the series, finding their symbolism often uncannily mirrored the characteristics of each woman. The series reflects on the struggles and inequities of the past, underscores the fundamental challenges that still exist, highlights the transformative achievements of intelligent, courageous women, and suggests possible tomorrows.

R.B.J:Justice stains, foils, lashes, stitching, Elizabethan ruffle on cartapesta 12 x 7 x 6 During the COVID-19 pandemic I made masks--not for health protective reasons or to distribute to health care workers but to record what was happening during that regime changing era. In September 2020, our honorable Supreme Court justice Ruth Baden Ginsburg died. Like many women and men, I looked up to her and admired her accomplishments, particularly appreciating her advocacy for gender equality and women's rights, and for encouraging women to speak up about their experiences with sexual harassment. I honored her life with a cool-blue mask, stitched on her eyeglasses so she could continue to look over us and our lives, and amplified her signature collar with an Elizabethan ruffle. The mask is part of my "The Future Has an Ancient Face" series of 24 masks that chronicle political, cultural and medical events during the 2 years of the 2020-2022 pandemic.

Help Us! digital, archival photograph 10 x 8 My photography portfolios deal with beauty that I find in simple places. I search for art in places often overlooked by people rushing by: street abstractions formed by the effects of traffic and the erosion of painted lines; art in the visible layers of torn papers restructured by random anonymous participants; torn ads; changes from weathering; oxidized rusted surfaces creating patterns and vistas; reflections in puddles; ponds, or store windows; ice patterns; simple arrangements of flowers and fruit at markets.

Embrace Yourself As You Are found objects 9 x 5 x 5 I am a narrative found object assemblage sculptor. This work is from my Relationship With Female Beauty/Image Series. Women are bombarded with images of how we should look, what we should wear, the products we should use. Our face, our hair, our bodies are judged by some unrealistic standard. No wonder so many young girls struggle with body image. At the other end of the spectrum, we older women often feel we are invisible. I do feel that some women are now standing up to this barrage and reminding us that we are each beautiful in our own way. I am trying to do my part in this effort. I started collecting vintage compacts and beauty products and was motivated to create a series of work reminding us that we are so much more than our reflection in the mirror. All women and girls, all sizes, shapes, colors, and ages should feel beautiful about themselves. Whether you are a cowgirl or a ballerina "Embrace Yourself As You Are."

4:30 at 535 oil on Panel 24 x 18 This is my mother who took us to the Met (and every other museum) as soon as we were old enough to walk and who bought me every art supply I ever wanted when I was a kid. This was a moment in Provincetown, at my cousin's house. There were four of us (artists) sitting around.

Edith oil on Wood Panel 4 x 4 Portraits are immeasurably fascinating to me for their breadth of expression. They can articulate an expansive language of mood and atmosphere. They can convey intent, brashness or delicacy, anxiety or hesitation. A viewer can vicariously venture into the realm of a face to invent a story about a person. I wanted to make these portraits in a miniature scale, so to bring a viewer close in proximity to the individual moods of each woman. They are intimate in scale yet vigorously alive with thick paint. Each portrait is 4" X 4", oil on wood panel. Painted with tiny brushes, the portraits of these women nevertheless remain hugely present. They reflect an unshakable vitality immersed in atmospheric spaces. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.

The Kvell oil on canvas 36 x 30 Nana was my first mentor. Her delight in the family she had created and the artists among us gave her a shudder that she would hold tight. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.

The Falconi Twins (Second Violin, Principal Viola) photo and pigmented beeswax combines on Kozo and wood panel 36 x 24 I create visual biographies honoring communities whose narratives have been marginalized, erased, or never recorded. "The Falconi Twins" portrays the resilience of two women from my childhood town who defied societal expectations in the 1970s. These women lived together, posed as twin sisters, and dressed identically to evade the scrutiny of the conservative community. In truth, they were a gay couple seeking refuge in a world that struggled to accept them for who they truly were. This portrait is a fusion of orphaned vintage photographs, my photographs, abstract drawings, and antique ephemera in subtle layers of pigmented beeswax on Kozo. I replicated a solitary figure to create a twin, etched intricate patterns and sgraffito onto the platform, balustrade, and figures to weave a narrative of secrets and shared experiences that remain unreadable to outsiders. This is a portrait of the power of love, resilience, and enduring bonds. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.

White Rose oil on oil primed linen 30 x 26 This is a reference to the women of the White Rose Resistance group of WW II.

Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.

Stiff acrylic monoprint on paper 12 x 9 From a series of prints exploring the condition of our physical bodies, women’s physical selves, and what they mean to our lives. Moving through life means continually adjusting to changes in our children’s bodies, ourselves, and the aging bodies of our parents. The range of emotions evoked from all of these phases run the gamut, and speak to who we are, both to ourselves and to others. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.
-
Lupita Kneeds acrylic 24 x 18 Lupita Kneeds is another of the series inspired by Laura Esquivel's novel "Lupita also Liked to Iron". It is another meditation in motion, with a nod to my Latina heritage and the indigenous adobe homes of Mexico. The title is a play on the word "kneeds" and "Needs". I hope this painting gives the viewer a quiet moment of contemplation. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.
-
Nicki digital photography, inkjet archival print 13 x 19 I was inspired by this woman's beautiful smile and her love of the pigeons. Human kindness is a beautiful thing to witness.

Mother Nature's Fury acrylic, ink, gold leaf, on linen 36 x 24 Mother Nature's Fury represents the constant battle of nature vs human made disasters and climate change.

Now and Then acrylic with gold foil and modeling paste 18 x 22 The painting is a tribute to the importance of etiquette and self pride in the African-American Community. Debutante Balls and etiquette classes were started in the 1800s in Black Communities and continue to be an important part of the societal education of young women in the South. The girl on the left reflects modern times and the girl on the right reflects the same ideals in the 1800s.

Tribute acrylic, Photos printed on vellum collaged on cradled birch board 18 x 24 I’m half-Japanese, half-white. My father’s Japanese-American family was unjustly held in the concentration camp in Minidoka, ID during WWII only because of their ancestry. Around 120,000 Japanese-Americans were rounded up on the West Coast and imprisoned. Over half of them were American citizens but were deprived of their constitutional right to habeas corpus--the right to defend themselves in court. I created "Tribute" to honor my relative Geri Takahashi who was put into concentration camp, along with two of her brothers, a sister and her mother, at the age of 21. She was born in the USA so was an American citizen. She had never even been to Japan yet was treated as if she was a war criminal. Being unjustly incarcerated at a young age affected her self esteem and she never dated or married, she just worked 6 days a week and volunteered in her Protestant church. Like many of her generation who were in camp, she would never speak of her time there. My hope is that "Tribute" tells the story that she could not.

Spring Vibe acrylic and charcoal on canvas 20 x 16 With a strong background in Natural History and Botany, I am very much drawn to abstracting from nature both on a gross and cellular level. I have a fascination with the structures, forms, and colours of stems, leaves, flowers, roots, and fruiting bodies of the plants I know so well. The twisted and intertwined organic nature of gardens and natural places is where I gather much of my inspiration these days. I am fascinated with abstracting from both the living and dead forms of plants, and I am just as happy painting neglected flower beds with all the weeds and rotting wood and fungi as I am a manicured garden. Strong brushstrokes, colour, and texture are key elements to most of my works. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.
-
Petals for Thee oil on canvas 10 x 8 My painting, Petals for Thee, was inspired by new beginnings and the wonder and joy of things to come. Created with both brush and palette knife, I strived for a variety of textures to infuse depth, form and movement. The unique color palette was chosen to bring Petals for Thee to life. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.

White Peony Awakens digital archival photograph sublimated to aluminum 11 x 14 I am passionate about photography as an art form. In a world overfull with images, ideas, and messages streaming at us at warp speed, there is profound value in the thoughtfulness, the provocation, the silent aesthetic, the power of a single image made with the vision and ever evolving techniques of fine art photography. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.

Touch the Sky custom acrylic glass print 37 x 28 Streaks of electric light, motion, and emotion transform my NYC photography into a poetic, abstract vision. My unique “photo-paintings” explore light as memory, movement, and connection – revealing the city in a completely new way. Born during a time of isolation, COVID pandemic, my work speaks of resilience, presence, and the beauty hidden in motion blooming with confidence. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.

Nocturne hand drawn, layered cyanotype, tea and coffee dyed with thread 14 x 20 My work investigates loss, memory and human fragility. I use natural and scavenged materials. I burn, dye, stitch, rust and drill wood, paper, silk and metal. I choose obsessive, repetitive mark making processes where traces of the hand remain. Cyanotypes, created with exposure to our largest star, allude to the celestial and star filled heavens, beacons used for centuries as guideposts though many have long since burnt out. The past burning present in our daily lives. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.
-
Beneath Our Feet encaustic, oil, collage on wood 24 x 24 I was inspired by a trip I took through the upper Catskills. It is not a realistic painting, but rather a depiction of how magical the far-reaching scenery felt. Beneath Our Feet was created as a reminder of the sanctuary nature offers and how important it is that we explore and honor our natural world Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.

Ghost Town in Tucany photography 24 x 34 Intrigued by an abandoned town in Tuscany, I loved the last signs of humanity--four chairs situated in a grouping that suggested neighbors gathering to talk. The surrounding mottled paint-textured walls paired with these chairs inspired me to capture this photograph. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.

Seeing Red vinyl, tape, seam binding, staples, grommets (wall hung), and red objects 23 x 18 x 4.25 As a sculptor, I am impelled to collect and sort objects; the gathering of objects is a critical component of my being. Seeing Red is a form created in the shape of a hand from vinyl and filled with acquired objects. My studio overflows with found objects. Eager to construct forms I continually seek, find, and make new constructions from objects that have a past. Joy envelopes me the moment I step into my studio. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.
-
Mother with Child oil on canvas 24 x 19 My work is an exploration of the infinite variety of the human face. I am fascinated by the fact that no two countenances are the same, and I use the portrait as a vessel to tell stories. My process begins with tactile immediacy—using pencil, charcoal, and pastel to capture likenesses from life, television, and photographs. These sketches serve as the foundation for my oil paintings, where the imagery shifts along a spectrum from realism to symbolism and expressionistic abstraction. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.
-
Isaac Woodard Man with No Eyes (square) oil on panel 18 x 18 Isaac Woodard was beaten and blinded by law enforcement as he was returning home from military service in 1946. His horrific maiming called national attention to the brutality against black men in the American south and spurred the movement towards civil rights. This work is my humble plea for enlightenment to emerge from darkness. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.

Your Courage, Our Rage diptych Collage on two cradle boards: free motion stitched figures, artist dyed papers with hand-cut letters 14 x 23 Armed Immigration Agents in Minnesota attacked and killed two US citizens who were trying to help their neighbors legally. To date, the callous murders of Renee Good and Alex Pretti, irrefutably caught on numerous videos, have avoided prosecution in our court system. This lack of accountability bodes ill for the future of our law enforcement and our courts. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.
-
Happy Hour oil on canvas 18 x 22 I am a retired sailor. This image is near and dear to my heart - end of a hard beat upwind, safe in the slip, glass of wine in hand. Sunburned, tired, contented, in company of other sailors who feel the same. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.

No Safe Place printmaking 18 x 15.5 My current work investigates the nature of communication - natural, political, interpersonal and geographical - to see how they attune to each other and hold the whole intact or fail and misfire. I use various printmaking methods like a cook would mix ingredients. Serigraph is great for opaque predictable outcomes. Monotypes give fuzzy mystical nuances and intaglio gives me the pressed impressions and deep grooved stories I like to entwine with other layers. The inherent notion of trust in systems as safety nets, protection and comfort is currently a consideration for every American given current political policy makers. It is only with scrutiny and discernment that we can examine which systems we have become complacent about saving or redeeming. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.

Peonies in White watercolor 14 x 11 Painted in the depths of winter, these white peonies shimmer with light and movement, quietly evoking the inevitable return of spring. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.

Haven II oil on canvas 11 x 11 This painting began from a quiet morning view outside my home. Rather than describing the landscape directly, I focused on how the moment felt, including the warmth of light, the stillness, and the sense of calm. I used oil paint with layered and textured surfaces to build a space where forms are not fixed but dissolve into color and atmosphere. The horizon becomes a boundary between memory and perception, while the lower area suggests reflection and fluidity. I am interested in how a familiar place can shift into an internal landscape through sensation. This work holds a subtle moment when the outside world becomes something felt rather than clearly seen. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.

Toying with Evolution mixed media: oil, acrylic on four joined canvases and found objects on canvas (wooden nutcrackers) 21 x 24 “Toying with Evolution” traces the evolution of archetypal toys from bare primordial wooden nutcrackers to mass-produced icons like the Stormtrooper, Captain America, and the classic soldier. The work explores how the war games children play and images of heroism and innocence circulate and adapt, while the essence of play and the spirit of conflict remain constant across the ages, keeping pace with the evolution of warfare. A cartoon-like swirl animates the progression across the panels, while ghostly paint seeps from the reverse unseen side of one of the canvases, hinting at an unseen player shaping the narrative. This four-paneled sculptural canvas construction creates a layered narrative and forms part of my ongoing practice of presenting multiple viewpoints and versions of the same theme simultaneously. The multi-sided, constructed-and-undone structure demands active multi-perspective viewing, inviting the observer to decode the layered relationships between raw object and painted surface. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.
-
Cascade 3 printmaking: monotype on Hahnemuhle copperplate paper 21 x 17 This monotype is part of a series of explorations of falling water, inspired by a visit to Mammoth Lakes, California, following a drought. A rainfall had just provided a bit of relief, allowing for water to cascade down rocks and inclines. It reminds of the preciousness of water. The process allowed the movement of ink on plate to mimic the movement of water, with gravity pulling it over rocks and growth. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.
-
Peppers in Motion oil 12 x 14 My subject matter can often reference the human form, gesture, memory, emotion, sensuality or simply capture the energy of a time and place. Some of my work has been fueled by my love of the summer garden. It’s bounty and fruitfulness excites me. My garden in season is lush with vegetation, blossoms, and tons of veggies. I see my still life paintings not as still life but as animated conversations and interactions. When I work from the natural world, I ingest this experience and then synthesize it into my own expression. My use of paint is visceral. I have an appetite for color and enjoy the manipulation of paint that grabs the eye and stirs the unconscious. When painting, I am compelled to articulate a fierce passion for life, female strength, and fecundity. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.
-
On the Rocks oil 16 x 20 The churning waters disappearing into the distant fog and the crashing waves on the rocky Maine coast conjured up thoughts of the turmoil of life and how powerless and insignificant we are.

Sarah's Ketonet watercolor 23.5 x 22.5 For the past several years I’ve been dealing with my daughter’s untimely death. She taught middle school ancient history. That’s what led me to look at a schematic of the Biblical tabernacle in Jerusalem and make paintings based on it. Some of this work has focused on the scarlet, purple, and indigo veils that separate the three sections of the tabernacle. Recently, I’ve delved into the Old Testament to learn about the cloths used to make garments. I’ve made paintings of Jospeh’s tunic, Job’s sack cloth, the high priest’s ephod. I like the repetitive quality of this new work and how it sustains me. After covering the surface of the paper or canvas with hundreds of circles or ellipses, I build layer upon layer of paint leaving some areas exposed. Making painting with these references lets me feel connected to my daughter and is helping me process my grief. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.
-
Bridge to my imagination acrylic: poured watercolors, fluid acrylics, paper collage, ink 20 x 24 “Bridge to my imagination” is an abstract landscape that illustrates my life. Metaphors of experience sail through imaginary waters as inspiration filters through my mind. Finally creative thoughts cross the bridge that unite my spirit with my imagination. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.
-
Heavenly Morning Glories oil on canvas 18 x 14 I am always inspired by the beauty of nature. I love the colors and shapes of these morning glories My paintings express my fascination with the mysteries, rhythms, and patterns of the natural world. Through light, color and composition I seek to share a spiritual/sensual voyage and to capture with immediacy moods and feelings. My technique combines the best features of abstraction with organic representational imagery. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.
-
Mme. Belle between 6 & 7 printmaking: relief print and chine collé on paper 20 x 20 I created what I thought was a fictional version of history with women of a certain age during the Cold War. This piece is part of my Housewife Operative series that examines the role of women in that era, which I have subsequently discovered to be true, women did work as spies (for centuries, in fact). The color palette and iconography create a game like tone for a truly dangerous endeavor. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.
-
Hot Nights, Bright Lights: Pool 1 oil on canvas 24 x 24 Much of my work explores the transformative effect of light on the ordinary. This nocturne plays off the idea of “reflection,” evoking the nostalgia of swimming on warm summer nights. Bright, scattered lights shimmer across the pool’s surface, mirrored through water-blurred vision, where perception softens and shifts. The perspective bends as if seen through the eyes of a child suspended at the surface, where even a small pool expands into something vast, mysterious, and immersive. Angles double, textures ripple, and light fragments into a dreamlike interplay of color and motion. In this space between clarity and distortion, memory and sensation merge—creating a quiet, luminous fantasy that captures the fleeting magic of a night swim. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.
-
Tech Bro Circus oil and cold wax medium on board 24 x 12 This piece was my response to the rise of the tech titans in our worlds and the power they wield. On one level the painting is my expression of resistance and disdain for the negative aspects that tech has visited on our society. As a former clinical officer of several medical tech startups where i was entrenched in the "Tech Bro" culture daily I painted this work as my personal response to my exposure to that culture and how it effected me. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.
-
Freya Stark, Explorer and Writer acrylic on pad 21 x 16 I am currently creating a Strong Women series of expressionistic portraits of women, historical and contemporary, in some instances loosely based on photographs of those no longer living. I work in a style that I feel is immediate rather than studied, one that will capture the essence of the subject. Some exhibited works have included Toni Morrisson, Edna St. Vincent Millay, Colette, Joan Didion, and Kamala Harris among others. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.

Unconditional photography 16 x 21 They have nothing, yet they share everything. Increasingly, couples and families are unable to meet the increasing cost of housing. Inflation, stagnating wages and catastrophic illness are just a few of the reasons more and more Americans are becoming displaced. (PIT 2024) Yet, for this couple, their unwavering love binds them together as they sleep peacefully on a bed of concreate with only a small throw. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.

Laughing Lion mixed media: tile glitter, acrylic 14 x 17 I enjoy lions and made one laughing. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.
-
Transient oil on birchwood panel 14 x 11 I love working with oil paint and people inspire most of my work. The model who posed for this painting , Emily Metalskin, is one of the most inspiring models I have had the pleasure of working with; a consummate professional her poses evoke unique characteristics. In “Transient"I painted her as a woman experiencing the quandary of being a lone homeless wanderer, a condition I could relate to on a personal level having been, in my younger years, just that. It is essential for me to find an aspect of recognition in all my subjects be they animal vegetable or mineral; to create a felt story of life through the medium of visual art. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.
-
Eve with Daughters mixed media: oil on linen and scrim, sculpture wire 120 x 60 I worked instinctively on this piece draping the raw linen which took the form of a female figure. I saw that it took on the image in my mind of Eve with her daughters. I incorporated sculpture wire to inside hidden seems. My objective was to show Eve passing down knowledge to her daughters. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.
-
Stone Soul acrylic on found wood, found stone 13 x 7 x 7 I am attracted to working with found objects, and have eventually created quite a few found assemblages as a result. I believe they are sometimes called objet trouvé —and I agree with the consensus that what I like is the way I can take discarded objects and can transform and recontextualize and give new life and new aesthetic value. I especially like the way the “real” is transformed into the “surreal” through my creative process. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.

Under Lock and Key charcoal on paper 24 x 18 Under Lock and Key reflects a state of emotional guardedness—the instinct to remain closed off out of fear of vulnerability and harm. The composition is deliberately constrained within an elongated vertical oval, echoed by a custom mat and enclosed within a metal frame, creating a physical and visual barrier that separates the viewer from the image. At the same time, there is an underlying sense of resilience. The sharp, unyielding forms suggest a kind of steadfastness—an ability to hold one’s ground without wavering. This tension between protection and endurance speaks to the complexity of self-preservation: the ways we shield ourselves, and the strength it takes to withstand what presses against us. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.
