Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about buying abstract art from Ottawa artist Jamal

💰 Pricing & Purchase

What does "pay-what-you-can" pricing mean? +

Pay-what-you-can means you decide what the artwork is worth to you. While suggested prices are provided based on size and materials, I believe art should be accessible to everyone. Simply email me with your offer and we'll work something out that feels fair for both of us.

How do I purchase an artwork? +

Browse the gallery, find a piece you love, and email me at contact@jamalabstracts.ca with the artwork title. We'll discuss pricing (pay-what-you-can), arrange payment, and coordinate delivery or pickup.

What payment methods do you accept? +

I accept e-transfer (preferred for Canadian customers), PayPal, and cash for local Ottawa pickups. Payment plans can be arranged for larger pieces.

Are your daily doodles for sale? +

Yes! The daily doodles are smaller, more affordable pieces perfect for starting a collection or gift-giving. They're typically 8x10 or 11x14 inches and priced very accessibly.

🎨 Custom Commissions

Do you offer commissions for custom abstract paintings? +

Yes! I love creating custom abstract paintings. Share your vision, preferred colors, size requirements, and the feeling you want the piece to evoke. Commission timeline is typically 2-4 weeks depending on size and complexity. Contact me at contact@jamalabstracts.ca to discuss your project.

What sizes are available for your abstract paintings? +

My artwork ranges from small 8x10 inch pieces to large 36x48 inch canvases. Common sizes include 16x20, 24x36, and 30x40 inches. For commissions, I can create custom sizes to perfectly fit your space.

Do you offer art for businesses or offices? +

Absolutely! I work with Ottawa businesses, offices, restaurants, and healthcare facilities to create custom abstract art that enhances their spaces. Bulk pricing and payment plans available for corporate clients.

🖌️ Artwork Details

What medium do you use for your abstract paintings? +

I primarily work with ink on canvas, which creates vibrant, bold colors and unique textures. Each painting is an original, hand-painted piece - no prints or reproductions.

Are the paintings signed and authenticated? +

Yes! Every original painting is signed on the back with the title, date, and my signature. A certificate of authenticity can be provided upon request.

Are the artworks framed? +

Paintings are sold unframed but can be hung as-is on gallery-wrapped canvas. Custom framing recommendations and local Ottawa framing shop referrals available upon request.

📦 Shipping & Delivery

Do you ship artwork across Canada? +

Yes, I ship across Canada. Shipping costs vary based on size and destination. Local Ottawa delivery is free. All paintings are carefully packaged with protective materials to ensure safe arrival. International shipping is available upon request.

Yes! Local Ottawa pickup is encouraged and free. We can arrange a convenient time for you to collect your artwork, and you'll get to see my studio!
