A quick note about your privacy:
I collect personal information only so I can reply to your enquiry, discuss artworks or commissions with you, and, if you choose to purchase a piece, arrange printing and delivery to you. I keep your email address so we can communicate, and I only use delivery details when shipping artwork. Your information is not sold, shared, or used for any unrelated purpose. I respect your privacy and handle your information with care.
Mary-Jane Persson Art Studio, trading as The Nomadic Palette, respects your privacy and is committed to protecting your personal information.
