Thank you for looking at my website. For international orders contact me and I will get a shipping price for you.

Alternatively, my works are also listed with Bluethumb.com.au and they handle international shipping and will probably be able to price a work for you.

If you would like a painting similiar to one already sold, Contact me as I coud paint another, or if you are outside of Australia, I can repaint one on canvas and send it rolled which will reduce shipping charges.

Im always happy to discuss options.


International Shipping – customs fees

If you are ordering goods from outside of Australia, it is important you are aware of the customs rules and regulations specific to your country.

  • Most countries charge duties, GST, VAT or other fees on items purchased online outside of your country. 

  • These fees vary enormously from country to country. 

  • Please check your government’s website for customs information before ordering any item.

  • Some countries have ‘duty free’ limits for anything up to $2500 (eg. US) but for most countries in the European Union the fees are higher, often between 20-30% of your purchase price (depending on country).

  • For those in Europe, that means for a print that costs €130, your government’s customs division will likely charge approx. €40 in duties and fees that needs to be paid before they will deliver your print.  

  • If you are unsure of what you will be charged, please get in touch with your customs authority. To give you an accurate quote on charges they will ask you for the tariff numbers of the items. These are listed below:

  • Art Prints Tariff number: 4911.91.20

  • Original artwork (paintings): 9701.10.10
