Are your products made with ethical environmental and fair wage practices?
Yes, when I can. Ethically sourced products are very important to me. I research all my products and make the best choice that I can for now to make sure that I have minimal environmental impact and that garments aren’t made in sweatshops.  When possible some products are purchased from manufactures that use:   W.R.A.P certified, CPSIA compliant and follow the FairWear Foundation Code of Conduct.  I also donate money and items regularly to various environmental protection groups, among other charities. 



What shipping options do you offer?

Typically items mailed within Canada and the USA using Standard or Expedited Shipping will arrive to you within 3 to 10 days of your order. I can offer anything up to Priority 1 or 2 day shipping for areas within Canada and the USA.  Most shipping options except “Small-Packet Air” are insured and have tracking.  Shipping outside of these countries can be more expensive.  If you’re having difficulty selecting an option, let me know and we can sort something out to best fit your needs.  
In any case if you use “Small-Packet Air or Surface” your item WILL NOT be insured or tracked. "Surface" can take up to 84 days.  You need to choose another shipping method of you want tracking and insurance.

My item hasn’t arrived yet, how do I find the tracking info?

You should have received an email with a tracking number. If you can’t find that, please email us with your name and if possible order number and we can help you find it.  If you use “Small-Packet Air” your item WILL NOT be insured or tracked.  You need to choose another shipping method of you want tracking and insurance. 



Are the blankets and tapestries machine washable?

Yes. Each have washing instructions on the label attached to the product.


Why is the checkout price different than the cart?

Items listed on the website are set to a default of $CAD unless you switch to your countries currency.  This can create a discrepancy at checkout, but not to worry, as whatever payment method you use will convert it from $CAD to your currencies exchange rate for that time.  At checkout you'll notice that it says CAD beside the total, you can go back to the cart to see what it will be in your countries currency. Or go to XE.  



How do I display my art?

Canvas prints unless marked as “roll” come ready to hang. You can frame them if you want. Most of the paper prints are set to match standard frame sizes to make it easy for you to get a frame.  Custom frames are more expensive, but often do look better.

UV Reactive Art

People often ask if my prints are UV reactive. None of them are designed to be, however some of the prints, like tapestries, canvas and archival paper will have some level of UV reactiveness, in a normal way that UV light reacts to lighter colors.


 

NFTs:

What is the Environmental Impact of NFTs?

NFT art is a new realm of sharing art which I feel can have valuable contributions to the world. It has given me a venue to make profit from my multimedia art, which previously was very challenging. Technology is rapidly advancing and always has pros and cons on many levels, like much of our human materialism.

For NFTs I aim to use the more eco-friendly minting options, such as with Tezos, as much as possible, when they are more viable.

Based on my research, it is the 'mining' of cryptocurrencies such as Ethereum and Bitcoin that creates the biggest energy usage issues. Whereas minting and transacting NFT's don't take nearly as much energy and can be compared to sending an email. Also consider that in comparison, the most commonly used global currency, $USD, is backed by the military-industrial complex and is magnitudes more energy consumptive and destructive on many other levels.
