Collector FAQ
Original Art
How do I purchase an original painting?
Meredith releases new works to her mailing list a few times a year usually as a series. In all cases, the mailing list is notified before hand so collectors can be ready for secure an original piece at its release date and time. Print drops will also be communicated via her subscriber list.
Giclée Prints
A giclée print is a high-quality reproduction of an original artwork created using specialized inkjet printing technology. This printing process involves using professional-grade printers that employ archival inks to produce incredibly detailed and vibrant prints.
My giclée prints use archival, museum-quality paper which ensures longevity and resistance to fading over time. The precision of the inkjet technology allows for accurate color reproduction and the capturing of intricate details, resulting in prints that closely resemble the original artwork.
What type of paper is used for Giclee Prints?
I’ve meticulously tested various art papers to find the perfect match for my artistic style. I want each print to beautifully represent my original artwork, capturing all the fine details. After careful consideration, I’ve hand-selected two paper types that truly showcase my art at its best.
Learn about your paper options:
Smooth Matte
Thickness: 17-21.5 mil | Paper Weight: 285-290 gsm | Finish: Velvet, Matte
This paper offers a low-level textured surface resembling the papers used on the etching presses seen in classical intaglio printmaking. The special matte coating supports detail, rich blacks, and exceptional color reproduction, all on an acid free base paper made from a cotton wood pulp blend. Enjoy the rich detail and wide color gamut this paper offers.
Watercolor Bright White
Thickness: 19.5 mil | Paper Weight: 300-340 gsm | Finish: Watercolor style surface

Framing
Do you offer framing for Giclee Prints?
No and here’s why: Framing choice is a very personal decision based on the desired aesthetic you desire for your space. For this reason, I am not offering frames with my Giclee prints. All of my prints come with a white border which makes it ideal for framing in a standard frame or allows for easier matting for custom frame jobs.
Original canvas artwork includes painted edges with a standard gallery depth of 1.5″ which allows for it to be beautifully hung without a frame.
Is the artwork sold ready to hang?
Original Canvas: Yes, original canvas paintings are wired and ready to adorn your walls right away.
Giclee Prints: Prints are sold without a frame and will require framing. All of my prints include a white border without frame due to the deeply personal preferences that framing requires for each unique decor.
Shipping
All original canvas paintings sold are professionally packed, shipped, and insured. Fine art giclee prints are shipped via a 3rd party printing service provider and insured for any damages that occur during shipment.
Where is Local Pickup?
If you are local to the Nashville, TN area, please reach out to me for arranging a local pickup of any purchased large canvas prints. Local pickup for Giclee prints is not available as these will be shipped directly to you.
Return Policy
All original artwork sales are final. I do my best to provide accurate photos of the artwork that represent scale and accurate coloration. If you have any concerns about colors matching your interior, I will be happy to consult with you and provide additional photos of the artwork prior to a sale.
