This is the question I am asked the most. It varies with the size and complexity of the painting, but it can take anywhere from 200 to 400 hours.

Love Wins! took 400 hours because I was paying homage to the Northern Renaissance master Jan Van Eyck's Arnolfini Wedding Portrait and I wanted to be certain that I could live up to my idol's technical mastery.  

Love Wins! painting by Kevin Grass 

If you have had the chance to see my paintings in person at one of the large art fairs or in another art show, then you will have seen the technical acumen of my work and you can be sure that my more recent work matches or surpasses this mastery.

If you have not yet had that pleasure, read on about the satisfaction guarantee for the original paintings. Rest assured that the paintings look better in real life than they do on even the best color-adjusted computer screens. Feel free to call the studio at (727) 942-9020 to talk to me or to my wife to gather more information about my art. Since I am a full-time college art professor, I may not always be available, but someone at home can certainly schedule a call.

We can even set up a time so you can Skype with me and see me in my office or studio, where I can answer your questions and set your mind at ease! My paintings have steadily increased in value, so they are a good investment from that standpoint. Ultimately, however, you should buy a piece because you've fallen in love with it and have an emotional connection to the work. That is the best reason to purchase any work of art, from any artist anywhere.

After your purchase of an original painting, you will receive a follow-up telephone call to make sure you are happy with your purchase and that everything arrived properly. At that time, you are welcome to set up a time to Skype with me directly to get to know me better, ask any questions about my artwork, my inspiration, my techniques, or anything else that comes to mind!

One of the nice things about working directly with an artist via his website is that there is no "middle man" so to speak. Sophisticated contemporary art collectors typically like knowing the artists whose work they are collecting. This way, you will have unique access to me in a way that is seldom offered by many other artists, and certainly not by most traditional art galleries.

While looking through the site you may notice that there is a security assurance icon in the footer yet the information in your browser URL bar may state differently. This is because the main site is not collecting any of your information.

Dimensions and cropping will have the same aspect ratio, and you can see that when you use the Wall Preview tool. However, the colors for artwork may vary according to the brightness, color settings, and resolution of your computer monitor or the device on which you are viewing this website.

It is much like looking at lots of television sets in a store, with some variation from manufacturer to manufacturer. I do my best to accurately display what the work will look like, but there may be some slight variances between what you see and what the printed product will look like.

Print reproductions are color proofed with me first, and will look as close to the original artwork as is possible with the current technology available.

Yes, we do ship internationally! All shipping is from the U.S. and foreign clients will be responsible for paying all applicable taxes and duty upon receipt of their original paintings and prints. Please note, certain very heavy items require our special attention to get you the best shipping rates. We will contact you if the weight of your item requires special pricing.

In addition to the print production time, international print orders usually take 6 to 10 business days to many major markets for shipping. Typically, international print orders ship via USPS, but we reserve the right to utilize other carriers such as UPS or FedEx, depending on size and weight.

Shipping fees are pre-calculated for the United States. Buyers from Florida will have to pay sales tax, which will be calculated at checkout.

Residents of Honolulu and of Anchorage will have a flat rate shipping price, but those outside of Honolulu in Hawaii and outside of Anchorage in Alaska will need to contact us directly for shipping prices since "beyond point" pricing will be in effect. Thus buyers from such addresses will need to contact us for specific shipping prices.

Original paintings cannot be delivered to post office boxes or to Armed Forces Service box addresses. They need to be delivered to corporate or residential addresses only.

Original painting buyers from other countries will need to contact us directly through the website or via telephone to arrange shipping fees. 

All foreign clients will be responsible for paying all applicable taxes and duty upon receipt of their paintings.  

All works of original art are insured for shipping to the client and will be shipped with reputable vendors such as Pilot, UPS, and FedEx. Tracking information will be supplied for every shipment.

Each work of art is shipped separately even if multiple paintings are ordered, except for small packages, if requested.

Local buyers of original paintings may request to pick up their original artwork at the studio and may opt to pay cash for the purchase at pick-up during the check-out process. The studio is located at 1884 Briland Street, Tarpon Springs, FL 34689 in the Tampa Bay area and may be visited by appointment only. Upon request, I will be glad to deliver original artwork in the Tampa area to local customers and help hang the work, if desired.

We are a Florida business, so if you are purchasing items with a Florida address, we have to charge Florida sales & use tax, which is 7% in our area.  

All original paintings are shipped ready to hang, using professional grade wire and attachments. BONUS: I will include picture hanger hooks for easy hanging with every painting purchased.

I am glad to work with interior designers, galleries, and others in the trade with regard to representing original artwork.

I do not offer discounts on print reproductions, however. Print reproductions are custom printed for each customer, and I do not mark them up much, so I can offer them to a wider fan base. That is why I do not offer print consignments with galleries or interior designers.

If a hotel would like to order a large bulk purchase of Kevin Grass Fine Art prints, please contact us via telephone or the contact form and we can see if we can negotiate better terms with our printer. 

I welcome working with customers to create unique and creative art that is specific to your needs. Please contact me via telephone or the website to discuss any ideas you have regarding commissioned works.

I would like the possibility of using your photographs (rather than my own) to put through the same process and to see what appears. I am also open to revisiting themes that I have done previously with new figures, so that the finished work will seem as if it stems from a series. 

Depending on the scope of the commission, we can also arrange for me to travel to and take photos of the figures for the work as part of this process. Either way works. This has been successful in the past, with personalized artworks being created. 

A non-refundable deposit is required, and you will have the chance to approve the design of the piece before it is painted. You will be apprised of the progress of the work periodically, so there will be no surprises in the end.

If you are not satisfied with the completed work, a full refund minus the deposit will be issued. Your total satisfaction is my goal.
