You know Brooke… if you ever get tired of this whole art biz thing, I believe you have a career in comedy. 😂 Seriously though, thanks for taking the time to record your process. Always looking to see how others do things. 😊
I literally am binge watching your videos hahaha! So entertaining! I was smiling and laughing the whole time. You are also super talented and I am now a fan 🥰 thank you for sharing bits of your business with us! You are an inspiration!
OK aside from an awesome paintings I literally had tears running down my face you are so funny , what a great combo. Thank you for the Laugh Brooke, and love your painting and the info!
What an amazing piece of art Brooke. Beautiful!!! 100 hours seems low I would think 1000 hours LOL! Thanks for the fine video very helpful. I have done a massive amount of shipping but only a painting once and now I am downsizing and my collection is going.
Thank you so much! 🤗I'm selling prints of this painting, if you're interested you can see the details here: www.brookecormier.com/collections/limited-edition/products/dartmoor-spirits
Another great Video with multiple layers, a talented artist with a charming personality, preparing one of the most spectacular paintings I have ever seen for shipment. Good advice and one of my favorite parts that is becoming part of your brand: your multiple goodbyes! thanks for sharing.
OMGosh....the cutting of the styrofoam😂😂😂😂 I nearly peed myself laughing so hard!! That is EXACTLY how I feel about that noise too. Just found you on here and subscribed. 👍 Your work is AMAZING...and your comedy routine...flawless!😄🤩 Much love from PA!❤
Hi Brooke! Love the video! I'm getting into oil painting and I have some questions :) - How long do you wait for the painting to dry before packaging it? Or do you spray something protective over it? - What brand of oils do you like best? And do you use anything to dilute/mix with the oil paint for a faster drying process?
The most entertaining video of a very important skill that I'm in immediate need of! Thanks for making the learning fun!! I loved your whole video - super impressed. Now I"'m off to pack a piece of artwork from one of the artists in my gallery for shipping! Fingers crossed!!
Love this, Brooke. I do almost the exact same type of shipping too. I have a closet full of recycled packaging materials (Amazon air pillows, boxes, etc.). I just watched another video about using floral cellophane to wrap paintings. I'd never used that before. I've always used Glassine, but will give that a try. I also wrap my paintings with that green plastic wrap you get at moving supply stores. I wrap it around the bubble wrap and entire painting to keep it all together and safe in case the box gets wet. So many different techniques out there. We just want our work to get to our collectors safely. Great video. Happy painting! -Shan
Amen! Thanks for watching Shan ☺ I've since replaced the cellophane wrap with acid free tissue paper (trying to cut down on plastic), with bubble wrap on top - though plastic wrap is certainly better for water protection!
@@b.cormier I hear ya. I've been using glassine paper, but recently saw a gallery using florist cellophane wrap to wrap their prints. I'm going to start including a card in my boxes, tubes, and flat packaging letting folks know that I try to recycle packaging materials, and thank them for understanding. Every little bit helps. Right? Happy creating!
Thank you for this! Your video was also not only insightful but very engaging and brought light and fun to a very frustrating and tedious part of the art process. Subscribed!
I don't know how can a person be so funny and talented at the same time😂 But it was really great (especially the last part of saying goodbye, I watched it more than 10 times and I really laughed😂😂) Brooke:)❤
Omg. It's 1030pm and I have to package an expensive masterpiece for my gallery, Steffich Fine Art. Not only do I feel prepared... But I also will giggle myself to sleep. What a fantastic-ly funny video. 😆😆😆 Ps. That's a rad work of art. Way to go!
Questions on shipping! 1. Is it challenging to ship internationally? 2. Do you take it to the post office and have them measure/weight or do you do that online and then drop it off? 3. have you ever faced size restrictions on shipping? thx!!
It's a bit more work to ship internationally, but it's 100% doable! For example, you need to fill out a customs form and sometimes additional paperwork depending on where you're shipping to. If the painting/print I'm shipping is on the smaller side I will usually take it to the post office (because they don't accept parcels that are over a certain size). But I often use a website called Shiptime.com that will find the best rates across all the different available curriers, then you print the shipping labels (and additional paperwork) attach it to your parcel, and the courier comes right to your house to pick it up! Hope that helps! 😊
You're such an entertaining personality in your videos. Hope you are well. For this topic.. I feels the hording and snatching xD .. makes me feel not so alone doing those things. Thanks for this nice video and all the others of yours
Funny Angel Brooke Ha ha ha ha fantastic video with many parts that people can't stop laughing truly a comedian have a beautiful day about painting a truly great masterpiece keep doing good work god bless you!
Your videos are so entertaining! Love your personality and getting a peek behind the curtain of your professional life! Thank you for sharing. BTW, Happy (belated) Canada Day! 🇨🇦 🎊
Wow. Wow. Wow. Genius...! Best youtube i've seen in a long time. You're very entertaining. Presentation and Execution Wonderful.. Priceless. Your artwork was fantastic. Blessings Love and Respect.. ❤️🙏☀️x Thank you
This painting is amazing !! I was wondering which company you use to send your paintings to Canada and the USA? and also are delivery costs included in your prices? why don't you send them by tube? Are your customers asking for them streched on canvas? sorry that's a lot of questions but I'm going to launch my shop in 20 days (abstract paintings and I'm worried about delivery Thank you for your time
Where did you find your box? How do you feel about TV moving boxes with the holes? This is so helpful thank you so much!!! But I am now struggling with the boxes size 😭😭😭😭
I thought you were the female version of of Jim carry but hats off to you you maam you didn’t bore us … it was funny and informative…. Thought I would request to make more videos about shipping paintings
This is super helpful. I'm also looking into insurance, but it seams there are no one offering affordable plans here in Norway. I guess one needs to start getting payed a lot to actually afford to insure the art. The cheapest I found was 300$ upfront and another 1000$ if the package is actually lost. Quite steep for a beginner. Either way, Ill be trying to package like this going forward, appreciate the video!!
Glad you liked the video! Yeah insurance is tricky - honestly I went years before properly insuring my work when I was a beginner and it was totally fine... until it wasn't lol (referencing my top 3 worst experiences video)
@@b.cormier Yes, that's the video I watched that made me look more into insurance! Sounds super frustrating. But yes, already learned a ton by watching some of your videos, keep it up!:)
@@b.cormier do you get your work appraised? For originals, I was told you can't get insurance unless you have it appraised. I also wonder about the corners. Do you add extra protection? Thanks so much for the inspiration that you are. ❤
heyy!! came across your video and I’m amazed by your work!! also I have been wanting to start my own business and I’ve been struggling to find a perfect box for my paintings. Was wondering where you got your box from??
Superrb video and painting!! Just a quick question, have you ever used regular brown cardboard on the sides instead of foam board to protect your canvas? Just wondering if it might be as effective as the foam boards.. or would it be considered too risky 🤔🥰
The Dartmoor Spirits piece is so impressive. I love your work. Another fun (and informative) video from at the B.Cormier studio! They always seem to end with a smile on my face... thanks!
Thanks for all the advice!!! Also, you're incredibly adorable! I love how you included all your quirkiness and retakes! Let me guess, the outro took just as long as the intro, huh? =P lol
May I ask a question? Does your client cover the cost of shipping? Do you add in the cost of tape and foam core, etc? I am struggling with these details that seem to eat up my profits.
you are just a gas to watch Brooke🤩. made packaging look like so much fun. do you usually install the hanging hardware on the painting or did this client not request it?
Hi Brooke I have a question. Do you have an idea how much I should charge for shipping based on your experience depending what place you take your boxes to? Do you have a scale at home to see how heavy the box is to charge shipping will be to pre charge it by a customer before shipping??
That painting is FIRE!!!!! I love it!!!!! With roughly 100 hours of time, how much would something like that cost? Always unsure of what to charge people for my artwork. So detailed. It looks like a picture. You are so talented.
Thank you so much! 😊 price depends on many things and will look different depending on where you are in your art career. Because this painting was a commission, I won’t discuss the price as a courtesy to my client, but it did make up a good chunk of my salary that year! I’m planning on doing more videos in the future that will dive into pricing your work, as it’s a big topic to cover, stay tuned! 😋
I would probably go with an acid-free tissue paper to wrap the painting if you want to store it in a box instead of the cellophane wrap for long-term storage!
Hi mam. I bought frame for canvas 3*3.5 feet height. It's very heavy wood. Can I progress on that. Please suggest me I hv to use nail for stretching canvas or else I move to stabler. Is stabler penetrate that heavy wood. Please gv your opinion..
Thanks Brooke! Very helpful and it doesn’t hurt that it’s super entertaining as well 😂. Not gonna lie I’m somewhat relieved some of the challenges you have are the same ones I have. I really like your presentation choice of clear wrap with an embossed sticker and cert of authenticity on the back. Also do you ever feel the need to put a styrofoam board on the back of the painting in case something punctures the back of the box or is that overkill?
Thanks for watching Keith! I think extra protection is never a bad idea, so if you have the supplies and the right size box to fit an extra styrofoam board then go for it! In this case the box was too narrow to fit two layers
Thank you so much for this video Brooke! Recently discovered your content and I am really enjoying it. Out of curiosity, what is the wording you use at the bottom of your Certificate of Authenticity? I know different artists do different things but I really like the look and style of yours!
Hey Brooke! a few questions! I have a 36 x48in painting commission and I am wondering if you've ever packaged a painting that large for shipping... and if soooo where did you find the box/materials? I live in Hawaii so shipping to the mainland is astronomical.. I got quoted $1,090 for shipping alone plus $290 to build a crate for the painting from my local pack n shipping... I wonder if you have any hacks on shipping since you ship internationally... thanks for the help!!
Thank youuuu! I got jipped by DHL and ended up having to spend over $1k just to ship it from Toronto to Ohio 😩 (including full insurance and everything) ... long story. but will be reading the fine print a little more closely next time!!
@@b.cormier OMG! That's a pretty penny! I'm just building my website to sell paintings and when I look at the cost of shippingw/signature and insurance it's scary. Makes me just want to sell locally.
@@ckarts.studio It's definitely challenging shipping internationally, you just have to make sure the price is worth it in the end! Good luck with your website :)
@@b.cormier Thank you so much for answering me. I'm not sure my artwork is worth that much at this point...that's the issue I'm having actually. Maybe I'll start with local pick up only since I am in a city and near NYCity, so I'll play it by ear. ALSO! I really like water soluble oils and have not seen many other artists using them. Watching you paint with them makes me want to go back to them. Thanks! : )
I appreciate the great advice and the charming humor (and the fantastic painting). What service do you use for the actual shipping? I'm shipping within the USA.

What do you do when you have a 2mts paint and there is no box that can fit that size of canvas?
Thank you!
How much does that type of commission usually cost? Thanks for the video.
Thanks for all the advice!!! Also, you're incredibly adorable! I love how you included all your quirkiness and retakes! Let me guess, the outro took just as long as the intro, huh? =P lol

Would this be a suitable method for storing a canvas long term?
I would probably go with an acid-free tissue paper to wrap the painting if you want to store it in a box instead of the cellophane wrap for long-term storage!
Awesome video! I recently had people ask for comissions which I’ve never done before and Im shipping across the country so this was a life saver!
How much does it usually cost to ship something this big and, how does weight affect it?
you have such a cute personality. I don't even paint and I'm watching this just for the happy feels lol
Thanks Andy!! Happy to hear it 😙
Hi mam. I bought frame for canvas 3*3.5 feet height. It's very heavy wood. Can I progress on that. Please suggest me I hv to use nail for stretching canvas or else I move to stabler. Is stabler penetrate that heavy wood. Please gv your opinion..
