1. The site is designed for immersive visual images so you can experience each work intimately. In the Shop you can filter your search by basic size and also by price.

2. When in the SHOP looking at the paintings you will see a small magnifying 🔍 glass in the upper left corner of the main image. Click on it and the image and it will be fill screen – you can then use the < > arrow keys to move from one image to the next to see the details and experience the work virtually.

3. Nestor is a creative genius and has much to say. There are over 850 incredible masterpieces for you to chose from. There is a Wish List that you can mark works you are interested in and would like to revisit. It is designed for you to take your time and explore so you find the perfect work you resonate with.

There are around 850 available paintings in the shop in a number of sizes. It’s not easy to view that many and possibly remember your favorites so –  when you find one that you love add it to your wish list (there is a button on the paintings page) – you can review it later and narrow down your choices until you find the perfect work that resonates with!

You can review the list at anytime (even email it to yourself or a friend if looking for a gift) so your time is not wasted while you shop.

Simple answer – you should buy my work because it resonates with you!

Art is to be experienced and enjoyed so buy what you will enjoy, what will inspire you, what “speaks” to you! Don’t rely on a curator or interior designer to tell you what to buy – You know what you like! I have nothing against using a professional and work with both.

You are probably interested in seeing more because you saw my work on-line or someone shared my site’s link via social media. Maybe you Googled “abstract art Los Angeles“, and want to see more. That’s what my website is about – Creating a space for collectors to experience my artwork and giving collectors from all over the world the opportunity as well. This is something that a brick-and-mortar gallery can’t do.

Another consideration to buy my artwork – the increasing in value with each passing year. Each work is accompanied by an official signed Certificate of Authenticity to protect your investment in my art.

An un-stretched canvas  it refers to a painting that is a rolled canvas which is not mounted on “stretcher bars” – that wooden framework the canvas is wrapped around – not a frame – which is on the outside of the painting. This is a canvas that is hand cut from a large roll of canvas which allows it to be cut the ant size the artist wants for the piece.

These works are hand cut and are shipped rolled in a tube. When you simply take it to your local framer to have it mounted. Since it is loose canvas there are an infinite variety of framing methods. Simply pick the one that is best suited from the intended installation area.

Commissions are done when you need a special work made specifically for you. Perhaps you saw one of my works that you love but it’s not the right size for your space. You might even see a work that is sold and you want something similar just for you. All of those are reasons for a commissioned piece.

My favorite and most often done commission is for someone who loves my overall body of work and wants me to create a work for them. Usually I am given a general idea of which of my styles they enjoy and a color palette to work with and let me have at it! As you can see all of my works are unique and there are never two that are identical – that’s not my style.

How it works: You contact me and tell me what you need. I will reply back to you and find out exact information such as the measurements and once I know that I will tell you how much it would cost to create. We will discuss exactly what you have in mind. Lee and I will discuss every detail with you until you are totally comfortable with the process and are excited about experiencing it!

I do provide a contract with specifics what covers all the basics such as payment/delivery etc. I also ask for a (non-refundable) down payment of 35% of the commission price be made to start. The balance is due once the work is completed and prior to shipping. The work will then be shipped to you rolled or stretched depending on what was agreed upon and is most practical for your location and the for the safety of the work.

Use the contact form at the bottom of the page which sends me an email immediately and you will be contacted within 24 hours!
