* What is SN and AP?    SN stands for Signed and Numbered, AP stands for Artist Proof.

Artist's proofs began back when limited editions were all hand-pulled from a one-man lithograph press, These days artist proofs are almost identical to the other prints.  They are a small subset of the edition.  CBjork at times will offer a very small amount of artist proofs.

* Do you accept commissions?   At this time I do not accept commissions, however requests for future art are always considered.

* What types of originals are created, what medium, and what surface?    Originals are all painted with acrylics on one of 3 surfaces.  canvas gallery wrap stretched, cradled gessoboard, or flat (acrylic sealed) mat board.

The process:

Canvas Stretched: Much of the canvas frames are built in studio from scratch, many years of experience learning the right way, and the best way for strength and quality coinciding with the cost factor paintings are selling for. The sides are usually painted black and given a stylized pattern relating to the painting.

Cradled Gessoboards are created in studio with flat heavyduty tempered masonite sheets with solid straight edge plywood carefully attached to all sides.  They are bonded with both wet and hot glues giving a secure bond.  It's taken years to get the best method down.  When hung, these paintings look very similar to a canvas stretched painting.  The edges are painted black, then over painted with a design, giving a stylized framed appearance.

Mat boards are just that, flat mat boards, and can be framed at your local frame store, or kept in a portfolio book. For those who like to get creative, there are alternative ways to display mat board paintings.

* How do we license your designs?

Most of the work is available for licensing.  A contract agreement must be available to be sent. Each image use will require an upfront payment, and a percentage of royalty sales as stated in contract.  Please contact Csales777@gmail.com
