Frequently Asked Questions

Yes.  My Etsy shop is  Louis Jacques Art. 

I have a limited offering of metalwork for local delivery only because of the cost of shipping.

See my shop on Etsy.  Louis Jacques Art. 

I can also be reached at JacquesLouisPhotography@gmail.com.

I am a proud graduate of the School of Hard Knocks, with honors in the famous trial and error method.

No, but thanks for asking.  I paint from what's in my own heart and mind, and I don't think that I can paint what is in yours.  

Most images are acrylic on canvas.  I also do gel mono prints with acrylic liquids, acrylic pours, and acryling on collage mixed media.

Usually UPS Ground within the continental US.  Please contact us about special arrangements to ship to other locations.  

Local pick up may be available in New Orleans (Marigny) or in the Baltimore-Washington area. 

I usually paint on stretched canvas, unless otherwise noted.  Sometimes I paint over old paintings or canvas posters, which might add interesting textures.  If you conduct a forensic investigation you might find another image beneath the current one.  But don't expect to find a lost work from a famous old master hidden under any of my works.  I'd also rather paint over something than send a usable canvas to a landfill.

No, I do not.  I like painting more than I like making frames, and it would just make shipping more expensive.

Over the years I have sent paintings to friends and relatives all over the world.  Keeping them on the website evokes fond memories of those people and those bits of artwork.

Yes, some photos are taken before I signed.  I sign bottom right and sometimes also add a remarque on the back or side.  

I don't do arts and crafts fairs.  I don't think it's a cost effective use of my time and budget personally, but it works for other artists.  I'd rather be painting.  I have actually been invited to display at a gallery out of state but I declined for now because I want to keep things a bit closer to home.
