Product descriptions provide available information about materials, dimensions, prices, and other specifications.
Artwork Representation
We make reasonable efforts to accurately represent artwork through photographs, digital images, and written descriptions.
Colors, brightness, texture, and details may vary depending on screen settings, lighting, and physical production materials.
Limited Editions
Limited Edition Aluminum Prints are produced in restricted quantities according to the edition details stated on each product page.
Each limited-edition aluminum print is signed and numbered by the artist and accompanied by a signed Certificate of Authenticity.
The same underlying imagery may also appear in open-edition gallery posters or merchandise, as disclosed.
Photographic Process
Select photographs are digitally enhanced using AI-assisted upscaling to support fine art printing. This may include reconstruction of fine details, with the intention of remaining faithful to the original composition, colors, and artistic vision.
Additional information is available on our Photographic Process page.
3. Commissioned Artwork
Art Presence offers custom commissioned paintings created through an individualized artistic process.
The scope, dimensions, materials, price, timeline, and other arrangements will be discussed before the commission is accepted.
A separate written commission agreement may be required.
Payment
Commissioned artwork is individually priced.
Deposits, payment schedules, remaining balances, and cancellation arrangements will be specified in the individual commission agreement.
Where agreed, a commission may require a 50% deposit before work begins, with the remaining balance due before delivery.
Any deposit restrictions or cancellation charges are subject to applicable law.
Creative Process
Commissioned paintings are created through Gabrielle Banta's individual artistic interpretation.
The nature of revisions, progress updates, and approvals will be determined in the commission agreement.
Additional requests or significant changes may affect the price or completion timeline.
Cancellation
Cancellation requests are governed by the applicable commission agreement and law.
If a commission is canceled after work begins, charges may apply for work performed or materials purchased, where legally permitted and agreed.
If Art Presence cannot complete a commission, payments and applicable refunds will be handled according to the agreement and law.
4. Intuitive Sessions
Art Presence offers intuitive sessions exploring the unique qualities and tone of Spirit through Gabrielle Banta's personal spiritual and intuitive practice.
These sessions are intended as personal, creative, and spiritual experiences.
They are not medical treatment, psychotherapy, or substitutes for professional medical, mental health, legal, or financial advice.
No particular outcome is guaranteed.
Booking and Payment
Sessions may be scheduled and paid for through Acuity Scheduling.
Pricing, scheduling arrangements, cancellation terms, and rescheduling policies will be disclosed during booking.
Commissioned Artwork
An intuitive session may inform a commissioned painting, but purchasing a session does not obligate a client to purchase artwork.
Sessions and commissioned paintings are separately priced.
Session fees are not credited toward the price of commissioned paintings.
An intuitive session is not required for every commissioned painting.
