Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about our artworks
We offer worldwide shipping with full tracking and insurance. Because every painting is hand-painted to order, your artwork is created after you place your order — so please plan for the following:
- Production: about 20 days — Quanxi hand-paints your artwork himself
- Progress photos: white outline around day 5, fur work around day 12, finished painting around day 18
- Shipping: about 7-12 days after the painting is finished
- Total: usually about 30 days, and often shorter depending on the artwork
Shipping is free on qualifying orders; a flat shipping fee applies otherwise. All paintings are packed with professional shock-resistant materials to ensure safe delivery.

- Day 20: the packed piece before it ships
You can reply at any stage if you want a detail adjusted before the final seal.
