Prints in the Shop

I offer selected motives in my store as prints for sale.

Giclées are printed with lightfast pigment ink on Hahnemühle Photo-Rag-Paper (100% cotton). More detailed information about the printing process and quality can be found here: Information about Giclées. These fine art prints are signed by me and are limited! Sold out limited Fine-Art-Prints can not be reproduced.

Larger-sized prints (up to approx. 270 cm, depending on the material) are usually available as gallery quality Lamda prints behind acrylic glass, or as direct prints on Alu-Dibond (with or without acrylic glass), wood or canvas. Framing optional.


Commissioned work

A commissioned work will be given by contract.

The hourly rate for commissioned work is 70 €, plus special costs for travel, accommodation, material costs, entrance fees, etc. if applicable.

The final price for the picture is made up of the costs for the work plus the right of use.

In accordance with § 19 UStG, the invoice amount shown does not include sales tax.

The creation of a picture can take 3 to 5 hours or more, depending on the motif. I will try to calculate the estimated time in advance. However, this assessment is not binding.

Commissioned work is not limited to plants and mushrooms as objects.


Exhibiting in business premises and public facilities

For exhibitions without sale, i.e. outside the art market and for purely decorative purposes, I take the liberty of charging an exhibition fee. The fee depends on the value of the picture for sale, the duration of the exhibition, the catchment area and the organizer (e.g. law firm, restaurant, doctor’s office).

Examples for 1 picture:

  • Exhibition duration up to 6 weeks in a municipal gallery or in a hospital, city with up to 100000 inhabitants: 29,95€.
  • Exhibition duration between 6 weeks and 3 months in a hotel, city with over 100000 inhabitants: 130,-€.

Furthermore, packaging and delivery costs and, if applicable, costs for travel, stay and overnight stay can be added, which will be agreed upon in advance.

The amount of the exhibition fee is based on the recommendations of the ver.di visual arts group.
