How do I buy a "One"?

E-mail Print PDF
This text gives a short introduction to how to go about buying a "One".

Please select your language, using the small flags representing your language in the “Your Cart” window.

When you see a painting that you are interested in buying, then simply add them to your shopping cart (in the top right), by clicking the "Add to Cart" button next to each painting. If you are interested in acquiring a series of works by the same artist, please select the artist in the right Artist list  "Artists" or do a search for the artist in the search field below it or in the left menu. All paintings are the same size, 22cm x 16cm ( the standard size of a "One"), but may be on different surfaces, and virtually all are unframed. To search for all oil-paintings you would search for "oil" for instance. You may sort each painting by Artwork name, SKU (Stock Keeping Unit) or Latest Artwork on the browse page. To see more detailed information about each painting, click on the name of the painting and artist or Artwork Details. In the following details window click on the artist’s name (red link) below “Contact Artist” to see the contact details of the participating artist.

Each painting is clearly marked with it status; you can tell it's status by seeing whether it has "Add to Cart", meaning it is for sale or "SOLD". If you happen to try and order a SOLD painting, then you will be presented page where you can notify the administrator that you wish to be notified if the artist produces more artwork.  Unfortunately these are originals so copies do not exist, and there is only of each seperate painting.

At any one time, you may see a larger image of the painting, by clicking on the thumbnail (small) image. The screen should get a black frame around the larger painting (Firefox), depending on browser support. To exit this larger view, please click the image of the painting again.
