Terms & Commission Information
15 September 2026
These Terms & Conditions apply to bespoke pet portrait commissions purchased from NSANTAMARIART. NSANTAMARIART is the trading name of Karen Nicole Santamaria Granizo, a professional artist based in London, UK.
1. Enquiries and booking
All commissions begin with an enquiry through the website. After reviewing your requirements, I will confirm whether I can accept the commission and the estimated timeframe available. A commission is only considered booked once the required reservation payment has been received, which secures dedicated time in my commission schedule and is deducted from the final balance.
2. Reservation payment
For standard collections:
Petite Pet Portrait
- Total: £250
- Reservation: £125
- Final balance: £125
Signature Pet Portrait
- Total: £350
- Reservation: £175
- Final balance: £175
Mini Watercolour Pet Portraits: Full payment of £70 (plus any optional personalisations) is required upfront to secure your commission.
Grand Wood Pet Portrait (£275): Reservation £137.50 / Final balance £137.50. Statement Wood (£165), Large Wood (£70), Mini Wood (£55) and Wood Keychains (£30) are paid in full upfront.
For custom commissions and Atelier Oil, the total price and reservation amount will be agreed individually based on the requirements. Reservation payments on non-refundable as they secure specific time in my schedule, subject to applicable consumer law.
3. Process & Approval
I create each portrait using the reference photographs and information provided during the enquiry and commission process.
For commissions requiring a specific composition or personalised elements, I may provide a sketch or visual proposal for your approval before proceeding with the main artwork.
Once any required composition or personalised elements have been approved, they will form the basis for the final artwork. Changes after approval may incur an additional charge.
4. Final payment
Once your portrait is completed, I will send you a payment link for the remaining balance. The artwork will be shipped once this final payment has been received.
Shipping & Delivery
Shipping
UK shipping is included in the price. Shipping outside the UK is calculated separately and confirmed before payment where applicable. Your finished portrait will be carefully packaged to protect it during transit.
Damaged artwork
If your artwork arrives damaged, please contact me immediately at nsantamariart@gmail.com with photographs of the artwork and packaging.
5. Cancellation and refunds
Because commissions are bespoke artworks created specifically for each client, cancellation and refund rights may differ from those applicable to standard, non-personalised goods. Nothing in these Terms affects any statutory rights you may have under applicable consumer law.
6. Artwork and copyright
The original physical artwork becomes yours once the agreed commission has been fully paid. Copyright and intellectual property rights remain with the artist unless otherwise agreed in writing.
