Frequently Asked Questions

What is Berkeley Thousand Oaks Art Fairy?

Berkeley Thousand Oaks Art Fairy is a monthly art subscription inspired by Berkeley, California. Each month, I create an original painting rooted in the local landscape, neighborhoods, and everyday magic of the East Bay. Subscribers receive a 5x7 print of the artwork, and one subscriber receives the original painting.

What kind of art will I receive?

Each piece is inspired by Berkeley—its streets, hills, gardens, cafés, and quiet moments. The style and subject may change with the seasons, but every artwork is created with care as part of an ongoing, locally inspired series. Think: small moments, local beauty, and a little everyday enchantment.

What size are the prints?

Prints are 5x7 inches, perfect for framing, tucking into a gallery wall, or swapping out month by month.

How are the prints made?

Prints are professionally produced on high-quality archival paper to ensure beautiful color, detail, and longevity.

How does the original painting giveaway work?

Each month, one active subscriber is randomly selected to receive the original painting that inspired that month's print. There's nothing extra you need to do—every subscriber is automatically entered.

How will I know if I receive the original?

The selected subscriber will be notified by email before the artwork is shipped.

When will my art arrive?

Prints are mailed once per month, typically during the first half of the month. You'll receive a notification when your art is on its way.

Is shipping included?

Yes! Shipping is included in the subscription price for U.S. addresses.

Can I cancel or pause my subscription?

Of course. You can cancel or pause your subscription at any time through your account—no spells required.

Is Berkeley Thousand Oaks Art Fairy a good gift?

Absolutely. A monthly art delivery makes a thoughtful, low-clutter gift. You can purchase a subscription for someone else and have the artwork sent directly to them.

Will the prints be signed or numbered?

Prints may be signed on the back. Editions are open unless otherwise noted.

Do subscribers get anything extra?

Subscribers may occasionally receive behind-the-scenes notes, inspiration stories, or little glimpses into the process behind each month's painting.

Who is Berkeley Thousand Oaks Art Fairy for?

For lovers of art, Berkeley, slow living, supporting local creators, and receiving something beautiful in the mail each month.

What is Find the Fairy?

Find the Fairy is our monthly treasure hunt! Each painting is inspired by a real place in Berkeley, and we hide a small fairy container somewhere near the scene. Inside is a secret code—enter it on our Find the Fairy page and you'll earn a bonus entry in that month's original painting giveaway. Check the clues on the Find the Fairy page to get started.
