GENERAL FAQ ABOUT MY ART AND ART PRINTS
You can purchase my works directly from my Art Shop.
Yes, sure you can share my artwork if you include my name and link to my website: www.sebastiankorman.art. However, you cannot use my artworks without my permission in any publication. If you want permission, please contact me by email.
The most of my printed artworks are available for purchase as a Limited Edition full-color or black and white prints, using the highest quality of fine art papers, a printer with pigment ink (Epson UltraChrome™ K3) which guarantees long-lasting color and saturation. Some of my artworks are available as Open Edition too.
Because every work is unique, I always choose the best paper for each fine art print to achieve the best possible piece of art. This is why I use fine art papers from the following brands: Hahnemühle®, Museo®, and Epson®.
I mainly use Hahnemühle Photo Rag® Baryta 315 g/m² (100% Cotton, white, high-gloss finish) paper for my fine art prints but if you want your artwork to be printed on matte paper, please let me know that when finishing your purchase.
As a special request, some of my artworks can be printed also on various types of material (e.g. ChromaLuxe high-definition metal, Canvas). Consider always to use a UV glass or a continuous cast acrylic on your final framed artwork. It will protect your artwork from harmful UV rays with anti-reflective properties. Find out more about this from here or from your professional framing service.
Most of my printed artworks are labeled as a Limited Edition which means they are produced in a limited quantity set. When a Limited Edition runs out the prints will no longer be available. The bigger the size of requested artwork is, the less fine art prints are available for purchase. So naturally, the bigger fine art print you are interested in, the more valuable it is. This makes my Limited Edition Fine Art prints suitable for art collectors too. You can see more information about each artwork’s limited number of prints (e.g. Edition of 30) when choosing the size of the artwork in my Art Shop.
“Open Edition” artworks are printed exactly the same way as my Limited Edition Fine Art prints too. But because Open Editions have no limit on the number of prints produced, they are more affordable to purchase. Remember to use always a UV glass or a continuous cast acrylic on your final framed artwork. It will protect your artwork from harmful UV rays as stated above.
Yes absolutely! For any inquiries contact me by email.
As a Custom Service, I provide you the opportunity to preview how my works look in your space digitally. You can take a picture of the space where you are planning to place my work. Send me the photo by email and let me know which works you are interested in. Within an agreed timetable, you will get a demo picture showing how my work will look on your wall. For more information check out the Custom Services page.
The colors, brightness, and contrast of your final printed artwork will be as close as possible to these pictures here in my Art Shop. Some slight differences may occur between these example pictures and final printed artworks, depending on various settings on each screen type and the type of selected fine art paper. I always choose the best paper for each fine art print to achieve the best possible piece of art. Note: All the pictures in my Art Shop are low-resolution versions for demonstration purposes only.
PRINT PURCHASE FAQ
All prints are packaged rolled in hard protective tubes to ensure safe delivery and to protect your art. The tube construction also makes unpacking quick and easy.

This way, you will avoid print damages.

To pack all my art prints for shipping, I use hard protective postal tubes to ensure safe delivery, so receiving damaged art is a rare occurrence.

Please save the tube and all packaging material and take some photos of damaged print; I must have it in order to process the claim.
