Hello and welcome! Please read this first! :)
Thank you for stopping by my little Catholic Art shop! l create my pieces for the Catholic home, and as Catholic gifts for those you love. I'm Nichole, a wife and mother of five, and my home studio is located in Southwest Louisiana. I'm so happy you're here! All of the art and designs in the shop are my own original work. I am a self-taught artist and as such love to experiment with various techniques and materials. I use a wide variety of mediums: oil paint, pastels, pencil, charcoal, color pencil, and digital (painting with an apple pencil + the Procreate app). I hope that my work will be a blessing to your Catholic home, or a special gift to to those you love. Your purchases support our small family business, which sends our five children to wonderful Catholic schools and puts groceries on our table. We are SO grateful for your decision to shop small!
Please feel free to message me about anything! I'm always happy to help! Here are some things to note before ordering:
*PROCESSING TIME*: Currently, it is just myself and one employee processing, printing, & packing orders. We do not keep an inventory but instead print everything on demand in studio. So, while we try to keep processing times short, sometimes it does take us the full five business days to process your order (particularly during the holiday season!) Our processing time for prints and sticker orders is currently 2 to 5 business days. That is the time it takes for us to process, print, and fulfill your order--that does not include shipping time. If you DO have an order you need out quickly, though, PLEASE send me a message. I will do what I can if I am able. Thank you so much for your patience. We promise it's worth it!
My prints are high quality and printed on premium archival cotton paper. They look even better in person! We think they (and everything else in the shop) make wonderful Catholic gifts!
FAQs and Important Info:
Q: Do you offer digital downloads?
A: I have some pieces that I created specifically for digital downloads. Anything not listed as a digital download is not available as a download. I must do this to protect my work, as I have unfortunately had work stolen to sell on other sites.
Q: I've seen your art prints on Amazon. Is that legit?
A: No. Unfortunately, some of my art has been stolen and is being sold by foreign scam companies. This has happened to a lot of Catholic makers I know. Please do not support these companies. There is no way they are delivering quality items, either, since they do not have my full sized files. At the moment, I do not sell anywhere but here. Check shops thoroughly before ordering.
Q: Do these prints come with frames?
A: No, print listings are for high-quality archival prints, only. No frames or other props are included.
Q: Are you taking commissions?
A: Unfortunately I do not have time to take on personal commissions any longer. I am, however, doing illustration work for publishers when I have time on my calendar. If you are a representative of an organization, you can reach out via Etsy messages to check my availability.
Q: Can I get prints in smaller or larger sizes?
A: Most of the time, yes! It depends on the print but I can offer custom sizes. Please message me.
Q: Why is international shipping so expensive?
A: That is simply how much it costs me to send via USPS. I'm sorry! I wish I could get it to you for less. :(
Q: Do you offer Bulk or Wholesale pricing?
A: I can definitely order bulk pricing for prints. Just message me!
I am only able to offer wholesale pricing on apparel and home goods if you plan to order at least 25 units of each. Please message me to discuss!
Please read these other important notes before ordering 😊:
1. PRINTS & STICKERS: All print listings are for prints *ONLY*. Frames and props are NOT included. Prints are high quality on heavy, archival, fine art cotton paper. I personally look over each one to make sure it is perfect :) Stickers are high quality, weatherproof vinyl.
2. ALL OTHER ITEMS: Apparel and all other items do not ship directly from me, but from a print-on-demand production partner. If you order a shirt or a mug AND prints, they will arrive at different times as they will not ship together. If you order a shirt AND a mug, they also will not ship together, however they should all arrive at similar times. Please let me know if you have any questions about shipping! :) Also, as these items do not ship from me, I am not able to look over them for quality control. There are rarely quality issues with these items, but, if you have ANY issues with a shirt or mug, please reach out and I will make it right! Shirts ship in plastic bags (as most clothing retailers use), mugs ship in boxes.
3. DESIGNS: All of the artwork in the shop is my original artwork, and all designs are my original designs. 😊 Even though I'm not taking commissions currently, I'm always open to hearing your suggestions and ideas for future pieces! Feel free to send me a message. ❤
Again, I am SO grateful for you and your support! We pray over each order for our customers and are truly, TRULY thankful for all of you. Again, thank you for being here! Please feel free to reach out with any questions! I'm always happy to chat!
In Christ,
Nichole
