Shipping and handling
I need to mail a painting on Masonite. There is no particular hurry on this one, but I know the client is anxious to get it nonetheless. I have shipped paintings wet (or nearly so) by packaging them in cheap, cast-off, garage sale quality frames, but I haven't got one of those right now in the size I need.
I spoke with a gallery director friend of mine that says he refuses to ever ship a painting wet. But he has no qualms about simply bubble-wrapping a dry painting really well.
So... 1) When is an oil painting dry enough to ship? 2) Does anybody else have any fabulous solutions to shipping artwork (unframed)?
