Frequently Asked Questions
Here are answers to the most frequently asked questions that I receive. If you don’t see your question answered here, please reach out! I’ll be happy to help you.
Can I see the art in person before deciding?
Absolutely! Contact me to schedule an appointment for a studio visit to my backyard studio in Portland, OR. Make sure to mention the titles of the paintings you want to view, so I can have them on hand for you.
Not local to Portland, and not quite sure about choosing art online? I understand!
Email me a photo of your room, and I’ll Photoshop art pieces onto your wall to help you visualize it!
I’m very experienced at helping people make interior design choices from afar. You’ll be in good hands with me.
Don’t hesitate to email with any questions.
Do the paintings come framed?
No. All paintings are on gallery-wrapped canvases or cradled wood panels with the painting continuing onto the edges.
While framing is always an option, these paintings come ready to hang, and framing is not necessary. If you decide to add a frame, you’ll be free to choose a frame that fits your preferences and decor.
See more examples of the edges of my paintings.
The edges of smaller paintings are commonly .75″ deep, large-scale paintings, commonly 1.5″ or 2.5″ deep. Please inquire if you need the specifics about a particular painting.
The “wood” referred to in “Acrylic on Wood” usually refers to a hand-crafted cradled wood panel similar to this. I only use high-quality archival materials. Please inquire if you’d like to know the specific materials used for a particular painting.
Is shipping included in your prices?
All orders over $100 ship free within the Lower 48 United States!
For all orders under $100, and for shipping to Alaska, Hawaii, and International locations, charges will apply. I am committed to giving my customers a great deal on shipping! Shipping will be calculated at checkout.
Paintings ship out as soon as possible once payment has been received in full and cleared.
I pack and ship sold artwork with the utmost care to ensure your art gets to you safely.
There may be a wait period of up to a week to allow for packing of very large paintings.
Local to Portland, OR? Ask about picking up from the studio. Delivery and installation of artwork is free within the SE PDX area.
Please email if you have any questions about shipping, pickup or delivery of artwork.
What forms of payment do you accept?
I accept payment in my online shop via credit card or PayPal.
If you prefer to use Venmo, a bank transfer via Zelle, or to mail a check, contact me to have an invoice emailed to you.
I do not ship sold art until payment clears in full.
Can I purchase with a payment plan?
Yes! You can put down a deposit on a painting then pay in installments.*
Once you’ve agreed to a timeline of monthly payments, and your first payment has cleared, I will mark your artwork as “sold” and reserve it for you. You will be billed monthly on the agreed-upon schedule. I will ship your artwork promptly as soon as your final payment clears.
*Payments made as part of a payment plan are non-refundable. However, you can change your mind and apply payments already made towards a different painting.
Ask about starting a payment plan.
Do you give discounts for purchasing multiple art pieces?
On occasion, and depending on the size of your order. It never hurts to ask!
Do you accept returns?
Yes. See my Return Policy.
Do you show in galleries?
At times, a painting you want may be on display in an art gallery, on consignment or as part of a temporary exhibit.
In this case, contact the gallery directly to purchase.
Are the paintings on this page the only originals available?
Yes. If you’re looking for a particular painting but you don’t see it here, unfortunately:
- It has already been sold, or
- I’m currently hoarding it in my home collection for my own family’s enjoyment. (Sorry!)
Don’t forget that purchasing a print of the painting you love is always an option!
Can I commission a custom painting?
I will always consider requests.
It depends on exactly what you’re looking for and my current workload. Read my commission policy and then email to discuss.
Can I purchase prints?
Yes! Check out my selection of affordable, high-quality art prints right here: Cedar Lee Art Prints
You can also find my art printed on note cards, face masks, tote bags, notebooks, and wall tapestries through Fine Art America.
Additionally, I have a selection of note cards and magnets featuring my artwork. These are perfect for smaller gifts! Check out the current selection in my shop.
