Tips Before Purchasing Artwork

All artwork is sold as is. Alyssa tries her best to accurately photograph her work, however the tone and color can vary when viewing her paintings on a screen or monitor. Please feel free to ask Alyssa to send more photos, videos or even Facetime/Skype so you can view the painting you are interested in prior to purchase. Muralwork, crocheted items, wood burnings and cakes have varying timelines of completion. Alyssa will discuss your needs and work with your schedule to get your custom piece completed and returned to you on time to the best of her ability! Custom orders are taken in the order that they have been received. Please keep in mind that if Alyssa receives numerous orders at one time (especially close to the holidays), it may take longer for your order to be completed. Feel free to contact Alyssa anytime with any questions!
