Shop: Hide n Seek
Impressum
My art "game" starts always in pencil. I tease my memories to come out from wherever they're hidden ...and just about when I think that they have left me and faded away for good...my pencil brings them back to life. All those carefree n frail moments, now earthy n soft lined drawings are inked with dark pigment ink which I've found that makes them stay and never hide again, and then digitally coloured with the colours that I loved as a child or I wished everything to be coloured in. A world of pale or vibrant playful pastels.
All my prints and goodies are printed here, at home, by my trusted printer and I hand finish everything with love and care for all my dear playmates out there to enjoy :)

I will ship your order within 48 hours after I receive payment and I'll happily send your items anywhere that a postman can reach ;) I use First Class mail for orders within the UK and Air Mail for the rest of the world. I don't use Tracking to keep the postage costs reasonable but insurance is always included. Your items should arrive to you in a week or so, but you know how postal services are sometimes. So please drop me a line if your goodies seem to be delayed and I'll make sure to punish those lazy, big-bellied British postmen :D Finally, there shouldn't really be any customs charges ever, but if they happen to pop up, you will be responsible for them.
I will always send goodies to your default address if you don't tell me otherwise, so go right ahead and drop me a line after you've made your order if you want them delivered somewhere else or if you are ordering something for a loved one :) I love taking part in gifts and surprises :D
-*- A few last things :) -*-
You are very welcome to contact me for any bulk, wholesale or consignment orders and I'm very happy to work with lovely playmates on custom and commissioned projects!! :)
-*- Technical specifications -*-
... for those who like them or simply the very curious of you ...
All my prints are high resolution archival quality Giclee prints!!
I print everything with an Epson Stylus Photo R1800, professional inkjet printer and the quality it produces is impressive. It uses a system of 8 different archival pigment inks which are vibrant, natural, velvety or satin glossy if needed, but above all they are very very persistent!! They are true, acid free pigments -no cheap dyes- that will last for 100 years easily or to say bluntly, as long as you care for them to do so.
...and yes I only use original Epson cartridges. ...yeah I know I'm so faithful...but that's because nothing beats the quality of the original inks, all others just colour (actually stain) paper for a while and then fade away.
I also use original archival heavyweight matte art paper for my art prints. It is toxic free, brilliantly white, so very smooth with a beautiful soft finish.
I use accurate ICC colour profiles so that everything I print has exactly the colours I intended it to. My artwork files are at 400 to 600 DPI (that's: Dots Per Inch) so that not even the slightest details are lost in print.
All my prints are always printed at the maximum quality settings that my printer can handle :)
-*- And an important note on Colour! -*-
Keep in mind that the previews of my art that you see in my shop will probably appear slightly different in colour according to your monitor and how it is set-up. And they are certainly much brighter and livelier on print!! Especially Mac users may see everything a bit paler than it really is because I work on Windows. Be sure, though, that I take great pains in assuring beautiful and real colours in everything I print.
Happy playing:)
