4. How will it be shipped?

In the UK we ship using the Royal Mail Special Delivery service which means it is signed for and insured and will arrive the next business day. Overseas we will choose from a variety of mainstream shipment companies. They will also be sent tracked and insured. Shipping times can vary but typically 5-10 working days.
You must allow 3 days for processing of the order before shipment takes place.
Shipping time is dependant upon location.

5. Are they originals?

Yes. These are original, unique and hand-painted by the artist.

Paintings are unframed. This keeps shipping costs down and gives the buyer a chance to purchase a frame suitable for their own décor. However most of our paintings are now done on a box canvas which means they can be hung as-is if required.

Yes. For details see below point 8.
