Shipping

How are paintings packaged? +
Each painting is wrapped in glassine paper, padded with foam corner protectors, and double-boxed inside a custom-cut cardboard outer. We pack every painting as if it's the only thing that matters — because it is.
How long does delivery take? +
We dispatch within 3–5 business days. Delivery within the United States typically takes a further 3–7 days via USPS Priority or UPS Ground. You'll receive a tracking number by email as soon as your package ships.
Do you ship outside the United States? +
We currently ship within the United States only. If you're outside the US and have your heart set on a piece, reach out — we'll do what we can.

The Paintings

Are these really original paintings? +
Yes — every piece in the shop is an original oil painting on stretched canvas, painted by Stephany Summer in her Central Florida studio. There are no prints or reproductions. Each painting is one of a kind.
What medium and materials are used? +
Stephany works in oil paint on gallery-stretched canvas. Paintings are varnished after a full cure period, which protects the surface and enriches the colours. Each piece is signed on the front and dated on the back.
How do I care for my painting? +
Oil paintings are remarkably durable with a little care. Avoid direct sunlight, keep humidity stable (40–60%), and dust lightly with a soft dry brush. Never use water or solvents on the surface. See our full Care Guide for detailed advice.
