Terms
Last updated 11 October 2026
These terms apply when you commission a painting or buy a print or original from Sumit Anand Art (Sumit Anand, Brisbane, Queensland). By sending a commission request or placing an order you agree to them.
Commissions
- The price shown on the website is an estimate. I confirm the final price by email after looking at your photo and details.
- I take a limited number of commissions each month. If the current month is full, your painting is booked for the next available month.
- A 40% deposit starts your painting. Your booking is confirmed once the deposit is paid.
- I paint directly onto the canvas without a separate sketch stage. I share progress photos while I work.
- Small adjustments while I am painting are included. Larger changes (for example a new pose, background or extra person) may cost extra, and I will tell you the cost before making them.
- The balance is due before the painting is shipped or collected.
- Usual turnaround is about 4 to 6 weeks from the deposit. Rush requests (about 2 weeks) cost more and depend on availability. Times are estimates, not guarantees.
Cancellations and refunds
- You can cancel before I start painting and I will refund your deposit.
- Because each commission is custom-made for you, the deposit is not refundable once I have started painting, unless the law requires otherwise.
- Nothing in these terms limits your rights under the Australian Consumer Law. If a painting or print arrives damaged or is not as described, contact me and I will repair, replace or refund it as the law requires.
Prints and originals
- Prints are made to order and shipped within Australia unless agreed otherwise. Colours can vary slightly between screens and print materials.
- Originals are one of a kind. An order is confirmed once payment is received.
Your photo and copyright
- You confirm that you have the right to use any photo you send me.
- I keep the copyright in every painting. You own the physical painting and may display it. Prints or reproductions need my permission.
- With your permission (a separate tick box on the form), I may share the finished painting and its time-lapse on my website and social media.
Shipping
Paintings are packed carefully and sent with tracking. The shipping cost is confirmed with your quote. Local pick-up in Brisbane can be arranged.
