We may update or change the website at any time without notice.

2) Product information and availability

We make every effort to display artwork and product information accurately. However:

Colors may appear slightly different on screen due to monitor and device settings.
Inventory and availability can change quickly.
In the event of an error (including pricing, availability, or description), we may correct the error and cancel or adjust the order as needed. If we cancel an order, we will issue a refund.

3) Orders and payments

By placing an order, you confirm that:

the information you provide is accurate and complete

Orders are not considered final until payment has been successfully processed. We reserve the right to refuse or cancel any order for any reason, including suspected fraud or misuse.

4) Shipping and delivery

Shipping locations

We ship to Canada, the United States, and internationally.

Processing time

Original artwork typically ships within 3–5 business days and ships whenever ready.

Estimated delivery time

Delivery is typically 2–3 weeks, depending on whether the artwork is delivered locally or shipped. If shipped, you will receive a tracking number once the order has been fulfilled.

Shipping costs

Canada: Free shipping
United States (originals):
- $65 flat rate for pieces 320 square inches and under
- $100 flat rate for pieces over 320 square inches
International: Shipping is by quote. Please contact us for an estimate.

Carrier and tracking

We ship using Canada Post. Tracking is provided, and the tracking number will be shared when available.

Insurance and signature

We provide liability coverage for items over $650.
Signature is not required unless requested by the customer in the Additional Notes at checkout. Additional shipping services may require added fees.

Customs, duties, and taxes

For shipments outside Canada, buyers are responsible for any customs duties, import taxes, or fees imposed by their country. These charges are not included in the item price or shipping cost. Customs delays are beyond our control and may affect delivery timelines.

5) Returns, cancellations, and address changes

Returns (original artwork)

Returns are accepted only if:

the return is shipped back within 3 days of the original delivery date, and
you provide a tracking number

Return shipping costs (including any unpaid duties) are the responsibility of the purchaser. Returned items must be packed safely and returned in the same condition as received.

Cancellations

Cancellations are allowed within 24 hours of purchase.

Address changes

Shipping address changes can be made only if the order has not shipped.

6) Damage in transit

If your artwork arrives damaged, please contact us within 48 hours of delivery with:

photographs of the packaging
photographs of the artwork damage
a photo of the shipping label
Please keep all packaging materials.

We will work with you to resolve the issue on a case-by-case basis, which may include a replacement print, store credit, or other options.

7) Commissions

Commissioned work is offered on a limited basis and is subject to availability.

A commission typically includes:

an initial discussion about your subject and reference material
written confirmation of the process and expectations
scheduled progress check-ins
final delivery of the finished piece ready to hang, with appropriate drying time, varnishing, and hanging materials
a certificate of authenticity

Most commissions require a 50% deposit to reserve time and begin work, with the remaining balance due upon pickup or delivery (unless otherwise agreed in writing).

If you are interested in a commission, please contact: cfosterart1@gmail.com.

Copyright to all artwork is at all times, even after purchase, the sole property of C. Foster. The artwork, images, and contents of this site may not be copied, collected, reproduced, distributed, or used in any other way for personal or professional gain without express written permission from C.

Purchasing artwork does not transfer copyright. You are purchasing the physical artwork (or print), not the rights to reproduce it.

9) Permission to use images

We may photograph or display artwork (including commissioned work) and may share images of finished pieces or progress images in our portfolio, website, or marketing unless otherwise agreed in writing.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, C. Foster Art will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of the site, products, or services.
