1. Shipping and Handling Crucial to Online
Artwork Store
Before an artist decides to post his artwork for
sale online, he made it sure that he was able to
find a quality and reliable shipping and handling
company which will take care of the item's
packaging, as well. He has to know, prior to
pushing sale, if there is a trustworthy company
out there that will ensure delivery of the item
that is free from any damage or impairment
caused by mishandling.
A quality and reliable shipping and handling
company knows the value of artwork not just
by its price but also by the artistry and
creativity heavily extracted from a person to
come up with an original art creation. Wall
paintings, among other art pieces, are the most
patronized not just by art aficionados but by
simple and ordinary moms who wish to

2. beautify her home. The crux of giving quality
shipping is founded on the quality of packaging.
A wall painting is just a stretch of paper colored
with paint or charcoal and soon set in a frame
or laminated. Thus, it is not a sculpture that is
made of hardwood. But durability-wise, it is a
sensitive and a weak piece of art. And more
than any artwork for sale, it is the one that
needs to be packaged with extra caution.
Foam is necessary to be set at the front surface
and at the back as well. So any accidental
puncture would hit the foam and less is the
chance that it will damage the painting itself, so
is accidental spill or leak from other items
stacked over it during shipment. This is also
why any artwork for sale should be completely
sealed when delivered. Packaging should be
waterproof by supporting the item with foam
cushions prior to encasing it with box. The art
piece should be very well protected from the
intrusion of moisture.

3. Another thing which packaging has to provide is
the handle to lift or carry the art piece. It can
be improvised like string which is durable
enough to lift the item but not as sharp as wire
that may cause puncture to the surface.
Without the handle, a person in charge of
lifting the painting for example will just grab
the package with a hard grip not to drop it. In
this case, there is a possibility of putting much
pressure on the surface of the wall painting
which is enough reason to scratch or rub its
paint.
An artwork for sale that is posted online is
treated and handled with extra caution which
includes the detailed stages of its packaging
and shipment as opposed to directly buying it
from the store or gallery where right after
purchase the owner is already held liable to
whatever happens to the art piece.
