Terms of sale

Every painting is an original oil on canvas, painted and signed by Clive. Each one is unique, and comes framed and ready to hang, with a certificate of authenticity signed by Clive.

Sizes are given in centimetres, width by height, and include the frame.

Colours vary slightly from screen to screen. Clive is happy to send further photographs, or to arrange a viewing at his studio in Dromana.

All prices are in Australian dollars and include the frame. Clive is not registered for GST, so no GST is charged. Delivery depends on the option you choose, and the full total is shown before you pay.

Card payments are processed securely by Stripe. Your card details go directly to Stripe and are never seen or stored by Clive or this website.

You may also pay in 2 to 4 instalments, by arrangement with Clive. Please contact him before you buy, and he will confirm the amounts and dates with you. Your painting is reserved for you from the first payment and is sent once the final payment has been received.

Once your payment, or your first instalment, is received, the painting is marked as sold. In the rare event that two buyers pay for the same painting at the same moment, the first payment secures it and the other is refunded in full.

Clive wraps and packs every painting himself, and sends it with a courier company based in Mornington. Delivery within Australia typically takes around 3 days. Clive will be in touch soon after your order to confirm the details.

Every painting sent by courier is insured against damage in transit. The cost of insurance is included in the delivery price, which is shown before you pay.

Clive can also deliver your painting himself on the Mornington Peninsula and in Melbourne, or you are welcome to collect it from his studio in Dromana at a time that suits you.

Paintings can be sent overseas. The cost and delivery time depend on the destination, so please ask Clive for a quote before you buy.

In the unlikely event that your painting arrives damaged, please let Clive know within 7 days of delivery, with photographs of the painting and its packaging, and keep all of the packaging.

Clive will have the painting repaired, or refund you in full including the delivery charge, whichever you prefer. This is at no cost to you.

If a painting isn’t right for your home, you may return it within 14 days of delivery. The cost of returning it is paid by you.

Please let Clive know before you send it back. The painting must be returned in its original packaging, in the condition in which it arrived, and Clive recommends an insured courier.

Once the painting is back at the studio, Clive refunds the price of the painting in full. The original delivery charge is not refunded.

If you collected the painting, or Clive delivered it, you are welcome to return it to the studio in person.

Nothing in these terms excludes, restricts or modifies your rights under the Australian Consumer Law.

Buying a painting gives you ownership of the painting itself, not the right to reproduce it. Clive retains the copyright, so prints, cards or other reproductions require his written permission. You are welcome to photograph the painting in your home and share the photograph.

Clive may continue to use photographs of the painting to show his work, including on this website.

Every care is taken to describe each painting and its price accurately. If an error comes to light after you have paid, Clive will let you know before the painting is sent, and you may choose to go ahead or receive a full refund.

These terms are governed by the laws of Victoria, Australia.

Clive is happy to answer any question before you buy. Please use the contact form on the front page, or call him on 0414 704 665.
