Each of our handwritten calligraphy with watercolor art print is printed on the finest quality French Parchtone paper famous since 1949, when it became the first 100% animal-free printable parchment paper on the planet. No animals were harmed in the creation of this subtly stunning, tactile, and versatile paper. It's the original vegan parchment paper, doing great things even before it was popular.

If you choose the unframed option: Each 8x10 art piece will come come packaged in plastic with a cardboard backing suitable for gift giving. These fit perfectly in any standard picture frame or can be clear taped to the back of a mat to be put in larger frame.

If you choose a 8x10 frame we will frame your art piece in a basic black wood frame with a plastic sheet (not glass due to shipping). Please see photos for examples of our basic frames. There will be no mat with the 8x10 art.

Please note, we cannot make any changes to the handwritten calligraphy pieces, but we can create computer generated art pieces using our graphic design software. We cannot create any art from copyright poems or quotes, only items that are original or in the public domain. This piece "Do not stand by my grave and weep" has been claimed by two different authors in two different years. No clear author has been proven, and there are several versions including a version that was published in "Dear Abby". All versions appear to have been in public domain and appear on tombstones and memorials.
