Unless indicated as “sold”, all items are for sale and available to purchase directly through the website. Once you place an order, you will receive an email acknowledging that order.

I am soon implementing a “view in a room” option where you will be able to see what the artwork of your choice looks like in the wall that you are considering. In some cases, depending on the artist and customer’s location, I might be able to accommodate a viewing. Do not hesitate to contact me on contact@samuelsotiega.com for more information.
I only accept payment via the secure e-commerce platform, which accepts Visa, Mastercard, and all major cards. This is to protect both parties, you and I, and to ensure that all transactions are crystal clear and easily accountable.

Shipping prices depend on size & weight and are charged at checkout. Based on the destination, some orders may be subject to customs and/or import fees. Customs fees are calculated based on import, brokerage, duties, and taxes, and are not included in the delivery fee quoted at checkout. They will be assessed once the artwork enters the destination country and must be paid by the order recipient. Please contact your local customs office for more information.
Please note that any customs or import charges incurred by the customer are non-refundable.
I use professional carriers such as DHL, FedEx, UPS as well as fine art handling companies. The carrier selected will depend on the artwork’s size, weight, the shipping destination and any special packaging/handling requirements.

No one wants to see your piece left out in the cold or rain, or stolen before you even get to love it! So please be sure to provide a delivery address where you are certain someone will be able to receive, sign for, & look after your rental artwork when it arrives. This may be your office, home, with a trusted friend, neighbour, or receptionist.
I try to ship all artwork within 7-10 days of order. However, sometimes with bespoke frame orders, the framing process can add an extra 2 weeks onto the order time. The same applies to oversized orders. Once shipment has been arranged you will be emailed a tracking number and the details of the courier so you can check the whereabouts of the parcel prior to arrival.
Accidents can happen which are out of my control. The parcel might be randomly seleceted for additional checks by your country’s customs department. If this happens it usually delays the delivery by a few days but you should be personally informed by the courier company of this. If you have any questions about your order or need an order urgently, reply to the email you have received with your order confirmation and we’ll do our best to help!
