Christina Vilgiate Art
Meet the Maker
My name is Christina Vilgiate. I have been an artist, painting watercolors and acrylics for 27 years. I fell in love with these mediums because of their flexibility and beauty. My travels, animals, flowers, gardens, the zoo and so much more are where I find my inspirations for paintings.
How it’s Made
This print is made from my original painting. It is printed out with high quality canon inks and high quality paper in my studio in Spokane Washington.

Frequently Asked Questions:
1. Do I accept commissions?
Yes, I do accept commissions. When a buyer requests an original watercolor painting, there will be a short contract to sign. The contract will contain basic information. What the buyer wants painted, the size of the painting, how long the art will take, shipping information, care information, date of the order, date the art is needed, materials used and price. My price for commissions is based on square inches + creation fee ($60.00). For example, an original hand painted 8x10 watercolor would be $80.00 (8x10) +$60.00 for a total of $140.00. This covers the cost of materials, shipping, and a small wage for the artist’s time. This does not include tax. When the order is created and placed on goimagine, the subsequent tax will be the responsibility of the buyer when they complete payment. Once the contract is signed and good communication about the painting is established the artist will begin immediately to create that special piece.
2. Can I request a custom size I do not see on a listing?
Yes! In my studio, I can print sizes up to 13x19 inches. If a listing does not have the size you need, please contact me on goimagine. I am happy to help with custom sizes.
Please note that a new size must be added to the listing before you can purchase it. I will contact you when that is done, and you can make your purchase. A custom print size will not be created without purchase. If you would like a very large print, larger than 13x19 in, I have to order one. I use Giclee Today in Pennsylvania to make large prints that are shipped to me. They are a company I have trusted to make gorgeous prints for me for the last 5 years. The processing time for these large prints is 10 days to be mailed to me. Then after I receive my order, I quickly put your order together and mail it out to you. I will sign the back of the print.
3. What papers do you use?
I use two papers right now for all my printing. I am hoping to add more papers in the future.
1. Epson Watercolor paper. It is 190gsm, bright white and slightly textured. Prints are beautiful and look like the original watercolor.
2. Premier Art Fine Art Paper. This paper is acid free, bright white and 230gsm. Prints are vivid and provide a stunning print that will last a very long time.
