Shipping & Returns Policy
Last updated: August 2026
Thank you for supporting my artwork and creative practice. This policy explains how orders are packed, shipped, and delivered, as well as how returns and exchanges are handled for items fulfilled directly from my studio and items produced through my printing partners.

Product descriptions will note if an item is fulfilled and shipped by Printumo.
