Understandably, buying anything online is sometimes a daunting process.  Will you get your item?  Will it take forever?  Is this quality Art that is packaged well?  I am committed to handling each purchase with professionalism and care.  I hand pack all of my artwork and take care to use materials that protect your investment/purchase.  I do my best to ship out your purchase as soon as possible.  Keep in mind sometimes finding the right boxes or having prints made can take a few days, if there is any delay I will let you know.  I also am conscientious about staying in touch with you until I have been notified by you that you have received your Artwork.

I will accept returns within 5 days if you are not completely satisfied as long as it is returned to me in the same condition/packaging as you received it in.   You will be responsible for shipping and full insurance for the returned item.  I use Pay Pal in all return situations ~ You will be refunded for the sale price only, not the shipping/insurance costs. Check my Contact/Purchase page for more information regarding purchase information and Artwork specifications.  

Here are a few testimonials by recent purchasers of my Artwork.  I am quoting them and have not paid them to make me sound good.  I'm human so not everyone is going to love my Artwork, but so far people are excited by their purchases and comment that it looks so much better in person.  Computer monitors all differ and taking photographs of artwork is surprisingly difficult!

"I'm a doctor and clocks are essential wall decor.  I was impressed with the originality and style of Paula's railroad clocks.  The hard thing was picking which clock to purchase.  I finally settled on "Time is Elementary" both for its look and its title.  I was impressed with the professionalism of the entire transaction.  The piece arrived
promptly and in perfect condition with a certificate of authenticity and instructions for setting the clock.  I enjoy checking the time on
my clock even when I am running late for an appointment.  Thanks again
to Paula for a lovely work of art."

Hi Paula,

Your clock arrived yesterday in the middle of a torrential downpour. The UPS guy got soaked, but the clock arrived safe and sound. It is beautiful -- strong, elemental and elegant. It looks and feels exactly as I imagined it would. Thank you!

"Substantial, wonderful and practical art pieces that will keep for the ages. Pleasant buying experience, arrived exactly as promised and as represented on the web site. I liked the first wall clock so much I bought another as a gift for a friend. Thanks!"

Paula,

We had been excitedly waiting for "Harmony" to arrive.  YEAH!  It was delivered early this morning ... the day you said it should get here.
The sculpture is wonderful.  There's a lot of "power" in such a small piece.  We appreciate the juxtaposition of your materials ... glass/fragile, drawn symbol/delicate, twine/soft and the heavy thick metal/hard..  Lee and I are most pleased to add your piece to our house full of art.  Now, I'm going to hang it on our living room wall.
I'm so glad to have found your website as well as your weblog.  I like reading about your processes as well as your thoughts about art and experiences of being an artist.

Thank you,

"It isn't really fair for me to give a testimonial to an art piece, a RR clock named "Punctured"  that I purchased from Paula's one-of-a-kind clock collection, because I am so biased in favor of the work she makes that I am hardly an objective authority.  The materials she uses are seemingly cold and dead, in fact rusting away, but to me they speak volumes.  They live and breathe, even to the point of sharing their energy with me.  I would have every metal piece she has made if I could and nearly all of her photo works, and especially the mixed media pieces where she incorporates both.  Keep up the great work, they have such spirit!"

Paula,                 

I recently purchased one of your clocks for a close friend whose wedding I was a part of. We spent the week at the beach and on our second day there, I gave her the wedding present, along with the letter of authenticity and the warranty. Both the bride and the groom loved the gift and kept it on it's stand, beside the bed, for the duration of their wedding/honeymoon vacation. The clock became a bit of a metaphor that their marriage would "stand the test of time". It's so solid and well made that I don't doubt that their great-grandchildren will enjoy it as well!

Many thanks~

Paula,         

It was a real pleasure working with you on customizing a metal piece called "Peace II" from your Metal Art collection.  You were great in helping me decide on the colors to match my home.  Paula you also had a great eye for adding details like the copper pipe & wire onto the piece to make it just perfect for me.  It looks beautiful at the entry way of my home.

I also love the print called "Ties & Steel" that I purchased from your Industrial Photography collection.  I love the photo and the beautiful mix of colors. Your eyes picked up such great little nuances of color on the wood ties.  It is
beautiful.  I can't wait to have it framed and hang it in that special place in my home.   

Ordering from your website was a breeze.  Looking forward to seeing your new work and sharing your website with my friends.
Thanks again for all your help and making my home more special with your
beautiful and unique artwork.
Sincerely,

Dear Paula,     
I just bought your railroad plate "Peace" as a wedding present for some friends. Thank you! I loved it from the photo alone, but it is even more
stunningly beautiful in real life. I am excited to be purchasing more pieces, this time for my own home.
Buying your art online was so convenient. I was able to print out a receipt from Pay Pal on the spot; in addition Pay Pal sent me a confirmation email; and your personalized email confirmation of my purchase was a nice personal touch. The package arrived in perfect condition just a few days, despite my being clear across the country.

Please keep me on your website "mailing" list. I love having found an artist whose work I am pleased to have in my home and whose work I am proud to give to friends.

Sincerely,
KK, December 2005
