Prints. These are high quality giclee prints, and are guaranteed fade-proof for at least 100 years.
All pictures, whether prints or originals, are supplied with a mount which will fit a standard (UK) picture frame size.
Notes about Pastel originals.
My recommended way of selling pastel originals is in a mount, without a frame. These can then be packaged securely and sent by post at a reasonable cost. On receipt, the painting would need framing to your own specification.
The majority of my originals are pastel. Pastel consists of dry pigment, and is a delicate medium. It must not be touched with the fingers and so needs careful handling and should never be left unprotected. Whilst ideally I prefer to sell pastel paintings ready framed behind glass to customers who visit the area, framed paintings are even more delicate and therefore difficult to transport. If you are interested in purchasing a framed original, it would be preferable for you to arrange to collect the picture personally, or for someone in the area to take delivery of it. If this is impossible, it can be arranged for a reliable carrier to pick it up and deliver it, but carriage charges (starting at around £13, depending on size of picture) would be additional to the cost of the framed painting.
Other Items
A Tywyn & Dysynni Valley booklet.
Because I have done so many paintings of scenes in the area where I live, I have produced a small booklet containing scenes from the Tywyn & Dysynni Valley area (not Aberdyfi yet - that may come later!) The pictures are interspersed with comments giving a bit of information about the area. The booklets are £4 each (incl. U.K. postage).
Calendar for 2009 with 12 new pictures. Professionally printed & bound. With Bank Holiday information & 2010 calendar on the back.
Sample Calendar
They may be ordered at £5.00 (pounds sterling) each. Postage within the UK or the EU will be £1.00 for one calendar with envelope and £1.60 for two. Please enquire if calendars are to be sent overseas, or if larger quantities are required. Contact JeanMintoft@aol.com
Greetings cards. Most of the paintings in the galleries are available as small (A6) prints (even if the original is sold) which are then inserted into greetings cards. Please enquire if you would like a card or cards with specific paintings. Please note that these cards are not suitable for framing, as they will fade.
The cards are normally supplied without greeting, but greetings of your choice can be added at your request. Cards with envelopes cost £2 (pounds sterling) each. Postage extra.
Fridge Magnets, size 8cm X 6cm , can be ordered from any of the pictures on this website (even if originals are sold). Each one is laminated with a magnetic strip at the back. Price £1.30 each (incl. U.K. postage).
