What to know about your art purchase
Materials, care and ownership
Here are a few ‘care tips’ that will help keep your painting in perfect condition for many years to come:
First, know that all of the paintings use the finest quality materials with the highest lightfast ratings available for the paint pigments.
The canvases or panels are acid-free, and provide a museum quality foundation for the artwork.
Each painting has been varnished with a removable varnish which protects the painting from dust, airborne grime, and liquids. The varnish also provides reasonable ultraviolet light protection. However, it is recommended that you not place your painting in direct sunlight, or outdoors or in moist rooms.
If you accidentally get liquids or food on the artwork, simply clean with a damp cloth. You may also give it a light dusting with a feather duster periodically.
And just a note for clarity, the copyrights to the image are owned by Patty Avalon, (me) which means that I will always hold the rights to reproduce the image in prints, giclees, etc. You, as the owner of the painting may not make reproductions. You are also free to sell or gift the painting to whomever you wish, but the copyrights always remain with the artist.
You will receive a paper Certificate of Authenticty with my signature for provenance purposes.
