DISCLAIMERS
ARTWORK AND ARTIST DISCLAIMER
Images and descriptions of all artwork are reproduced and displayed to reflect the art piece and artist as accurately as possible online; actual pieces can vary slightly in coloring, shading, lighting, framing, not framing, medium and sizing. However: actual colors of art works (both original and reproduced) may appear different in actual reality than on your computer screen or mobile device. This is due to the fact that every computer monitor has a different capability to display colors and that everyone sees these colors differently. Therefore, we cannot guarantee that the color you see on your screen accurately portrays the true color of the actual art work,
Furthermore, sizes may vary slightly. Art works are estimated at the most accurate sizes possible. Art works are manufactured by a custom/handcrafted process that cannot always guarantee exact dimensions. For example, an art work that is 22” x 30” may actually measure 21.9” x 30.05”. This is also because art surfaces (canvas, paper, etc.) are often handmade (not exact) and affected by environmental changes (may for instance expand or contract in ways that are outside of the artist’s control).
Mountain Horses Studio, its parents, affiliates, subsidiaries, third party licensors, or the featured artists cannot be held liable in any way for differences between the display of the work you view on-line or on your device(s) and the actual art work (original or reproduced) received; further, cannot be held liable in any way for slight differences between the desired size of the work you view on-line and the actual art work (original or reproduced) received.
SHIPPING AND HANDLING DISCLAIMER
Original works are fragile and can be damaged easily once opened or handled. Great care needs to be taken when works are unpacked from the shipping material and containers as to not damage an art work. Mountain Horses Studio, its parents, affiliates, subsidiaries, third party licensors or artists cannot be held liable in any way for damaged, destroyed work, incorrect packing, careless unpacking, framing or hanging methods.
