Do you take custom orders?If you have a custom project you'd like to inquire about, feel free to message us. We'll discuss the project or piece you have in mind and be able to tell you whether we have the ability to do said piece. Please note that for custom orders, turn around can take upwards of 5 weeks. When we chat about your project we'll be able to give you sense of how long until your piece is ready to ship.

Is your work original?Everything we sell is original artwork! Maurina sometimes uses patterns for some of her pieces, though is known to "go off book" often and add or change things depending on what inspires her. She works a lot with Sue Sloan of Sue's Mandalas and Erin Ridley of Esspresoly4u for their patterns and inspiration. Dorina's work follows no pattern. Inks do what they want, when they want, how they want. The ability to control them takes a lot of patience and practice. Dorina's ink drawings are sometimes inspired by other artists, but are her own drawings.

Pride CollectionWe offer a variety of pieces with Pride themes. A portion of every sale from our Pride Collection will be donated to initiatives in Edmonton that support LGBTQ2S+ youth who are. or at risk of becoming, homeless. Youth who identify as LGBTQ2S+ are over-represented in Canada’s youth homelessness population - some studies suggest numbers upwards of 40% of the youth who are homeless in Canada are LGBTQ2S+. LGBTQ2S+ young people face unique challenges - 80% report being aware of discriminatory practices and policies in their schools, 51% say that they were homeless due to the inability to get along with their parents, and 34% say that violence or abuse caused them to leave home.

Do you have physical locations?We do not. We primarily run via the online shop. However, we are always looking at markets and co-op shops. We will post on our social media as well as our website upcoming events we'll be at or shops that we're collaborating with.
-
Do you deliver?The official answer is no. The unofficial answer is sometimes. We don't like promising local delivery because there are a lot of factors that can impact our ability to do so, such as weather, work schedules, etc. If you select the Pick Up option in the check out we may discuss with you an alternative such as free delivery if we happen to be out and about and in your neck of the woods. A great example is when folks from Camrose order Alcohol Ink pieces - Dorina may be coming down to Camrose to visit Maurina and can drop your order off on her way into town.
