\n\t\tFrequently Asked Questions\n\t<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\tWhat type of art do you have?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tExpand<\/i><\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t

We have artists who specialize in Original paintings, Acrylic and Oil, as well as Bronze, wood, and glass sculptures. We also have Limited Edition Giclee artwork.
Each gallery features a\u00a0unique selection\u00a0of artists particular to their region. Some of our artists are represented in all three galleries such as Charles Pabst, Cara Moran, and Manuel Avendano. Please go the particular gallery location to see the artists available at their location.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\tDo you sell only originals?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tExpand<\/i><\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Some of our Artists have only originals. Others have both originals and Limited Edition Gicl\u00e9e reproductions on canvas available for their best-selling originals. All of these are signed and numbered by the artist which make them highly collectible with the potential to increase in value. Many of our giclees can be created in different sizes if you need a particular size, and most of our giclees are heavily embellished by the artist to simulate the original.<\/p>\n

For sculptures, many of our sculptures are bronze sculptures which are done in very limited editions, produced from a clay sculpture cast in the lost-wax technique. They are cast one at a time, each one with its own unique patina. We also carry wood sculptures which are one-of-a-kind pieces, and we have glass sculptures which are done individually as well.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\tDo you ship art?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tExpand<\/i><\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Yes, we ship art worldwide.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\tWhat is a giclee?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tExpand<\/i><\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t

A Giclee is a high-quality reproduction of a painting, using organic, water-based archival inks. The name is from the French word meaning “to spray,” indicating how the print is created. The inks are rapidly “sprayed” through the micro-jets of a printer onto a canvas surface thus creating a piece of artwork amazingly similar to the original. Charles H. Pabst personally embellishes and signs each of his own giclees, giving each the look and feel of an original. A final coating is then applied to protect it from moisture and UV rays.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\tWhat about framing?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tExpand<\/i><\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Each frame is selected by the artist to complement his\/her artwork. You may also purchase the artwork unframed or we can help you in selecting a frame that will suit your needs.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\tDo your artists accept commissions?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tExpand<\/i><\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Most of our artists accept commissions and have done so with great success. This is an ideal opportunity to have an original piece of artwork created just for you or your loved ones. Cost is usually based on size. With a 50 per cent down payment, a sketch will be issued to you by email or regular mail. With your approval, the commission can then be completed in about 4 to 6 weeks. Contact the Gallery Directors for more information.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\tCan the artwork be purchased online?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tExpand<\/i><\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Of course, but not in the true sense of using a Shopping Cart, etc. We will need to discuss the specifics of your selection on the phone to complete your purchase. If you are able to make your selection using our web page, send us an email with your choices and we will get back to you with all the particulars. Call any gallery or e-mail us at info@thesignaturegallery.com.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\tDo you do appraisals?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tExpand<\/i><\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t

We are not licensed to do appraisals, but we can recommend Sean Morton at 480.326.6885\u00a0(mortonappraisals.com<\/a>).<\/p>\n
