How to Buy
Cheri Freund's online store makes it easy to shop for digital art that inspires you!
Each work of art on this site can be viewed in a larger size with a virtual magnifying tool when you place the mouse over the image or simply Click on the image itself.
Want more detailed information about the work of art? Click on See full description and specifications below the title and price.
Want to see the art on your wall? Click on Wall Preview, below the "Add to Cart" button. The art will be shown at scale on a Living Room wall. Change the room, or the color of the wall, or the size of the art (if available) as indicated on that page.
Do I need to register or open an account with Cheri Freund Digital Fine Art (CFDigitalFineArt.com) to purchase artwork on this site?
You can register with the artist, or you can make a purchase and check out as a “guest” (by clicking on FAST CHECK-OUT) if you wish. There are no costs involved with registering an account. You may cancel your account with Cheri Freund Digital Fine Art at any time, by sending an email HERE.
How do I search for and purchase art?
Visit the Home page for Categories such as: Bright and Bold, Soft and Pastel, etc. and click on the links to open the categories. You can also enter a term into the search function.
What is the “WALL PREVIEW” feature? How do I use it?
On any “product page” you can click Wall Preview and view the artwork displayed on a wall. Change the wall color, or change the room. This helps you get an idea of the scale of the work and the impact it makes in the space. Use the Wall Preview tool to visualize the art in your own home or office.
*As an added feature: for the undecided shoppers, or perhaps for interior designers looking for the right selection of art to present to a prospective client, you can save your FAVORITES (*see little heart at top right corner of each image), or simply EMAIL A FRIEND (*found below the Wall Preview on each art product page)!
Will the artwork look the same as the online version?
The artwork will look better in person than it does online due to several factors:
- The image on a computer screen is backlit as opposed to the physical piece which reflects light.
- The medium: paper, metal, acrylic or canvas that the image is created on makes a difference (*see additional descriptions by scrolling further down to the "Information about the prints and frames")
- The actual size of the physical artwork and placing it on a wall creates a whole new perspective.
- Using the “WALL PREVIEW” tool can help you get a better idea of what the artwork might look like in a room in your house or a room in an office.
Will the artwork be framed when I receive it?
If a piece of art is framed, it will be pictured with the frame and will include a description of the frame and the dimensions of the framed artwork in the “Full Description and Specifications” section on the artwork page.
Will the artwork have bumper pads included on the back when I receive it?
Unfortunately, the printer does not supply those. Those will have to be purchased and added separately at the customer's own expense.
What type of glass do you use for framing?
The printer uses a 2 mil clear plexi-glass. It is ideal for safe shipping and blocks 66% of harmful UV light.
What about mattes?
The printer stocks only white mattes.

What is a “Giclee?”
The term "giclee print" connotes an elevation in printmaking technology. Images are generated from high resolution digital scans and printed with archival quality inks onto various substrates including canvas, fine art, and photo-base paper. The giclee printing process provides better color accuracy than other means of reproduction.
