Prohibited Uses: You are strictly prohibited from copying, reproducing, scanning, screenshotting, downloading, vectorizing, uploading, distributing, publishing, selling, licensing, training artificial intelligence (AI) or machine-learning models with, or creating derivative works from any Content without express, explicit written permission from Mike Crane Photography.
Enforcement: Unauthorized use, reproduction, or commercial exploitation of any copyrighted artwork or site content constitutes immediate infringement and will result in aggressive legal action and claims for statutory damages.
Limited Editions & Certificates Limited Editions: Unless otherwise noted, fine art prints are limited to a total edition of 25 prints worldwide across all sizes and mediums. Exception – Patagonia Collection: The Patagonia Collection may follow separate editioning rules, which will be specified on the product page. Artist Proofs: Artist’s Proofs (A.P.) may exist outside the numbered edition. Certificates of Authenticity: Select prints may include a signed or serialized certificate.
Product Descriptions & Display Variations We strive for accuracy in product descriptions. However: Colors and tones may vary between screen display and final print due to monitor calibration and the nature of fine art printing. Materials (paper, frames, mounts) may vary depending on supplier availability or improvements in archival quality. These variations are not considered defects.
Pricing, Taxes & Duties All prices are listed in Canadian Dollars (CAD) unless stated otherwise. Applicable GST, PST, or HST will be calculated based on the shipping address. International customers are solely responsible for all import duties, tariffs, customs fees, taxes, and brokerage charges associated with international shipments. We are not responsible or liable for any customs fees, import duties, or local taxes incurred upon delivery. Prices may change without notice. In the event of an obvious pricing error, orders may be cancelled and refunded.
Orders, Payment & Processing Time Orders are considered an offer to purchase and may be accepted or declined at our discretion. Payment is processed at checkout through our secure payment partners. Because all fine art prints are made-to-order to gallery standards, please allow up to one month for production, artist inspection, preparation, and shipping. Timelines may vary depending on print size, medium, and studio workflow. In rare cases (holidays, material shortages, special sizes), production times may exceed these estimates.
Shipping, Delivery & Inspection
Shipping Rates & Fulfillment: Complimentary shipping is provided on all Canadian orders. Automated flat-rate shipping is calculated at checkout for the United States and international destinations to cover secure art transport, global freight, and transit insurance.
Right to Adjust & Cancel: Due to the unique nature of large-format fine art logistics, we reserve the right to review orders destined for extreme remote locations or unusual multi-item outliers. At our discretion, we reserve the right to cancel orders or require additional shipping payment prior to fulfillment should actual freight costs exceed standard automated parameters.
Shipping Carriers: Shipping is carried out using a variety of couriers, freight services, and specialized art-handling carriers depending on print size, medium (metal, rolled prints, framed work, oversized pieces), destination, and packaging requirements.
Delivery Inspection Protocol: When your artwork arrives, please thoroughly inspect the exterior packaging and crating materials before signing the delivery receipt. If there is any visible sign of damage, ensure the driver notes it on the delivery record. We strongly recommend carefully opening and inspecting the artwork itself prior to signing off on delivery. If you discover any damage to the print, retain all original packaging materials and contact us immediately with photographic evidence so we can file the transit insurance claim and arrange a resolution.
Final Sale & Cancellations
Bespoke & Final Sale: Because every museum-grade piece is custom-crafted uniquely for you upon order, all sales are final. Prints are non-refundable and cannot be returned, exchanged, or credited.
Cancellations: Order cancellations can only be processed before production of your artwork begins. Once production has started, orders cannot be cancelled or refunded.
