Ordering artwork

At Art Heroes you’ll find a vast collection of affordable wall art; more original than IKEA, but without the pretension of a gallery. We work with more than 10,000 artists who offer more than 500,000 works (and counting). Every piece ordered is made to measure by us according to your own specifications, with the artist directly receiving a commission. This way we support creativity together and help our artists to keep creating.

Every work is custom-made, which is what makes us unique! We show the sizes in proportion to the works i.e. if you stipulate a particular height then the length of the work will change automatically so that the work remains in proportion. If your favourite size is not listed, this does not mean that we cannot make it. Send us an email with your wishes, and we’ll coordinate with the artist. We will then e-mail you a suitable proposal. For the materials wallpaper and ArtFrame, much larger images are possible, these materials are often chosen for wall-filling formats. The shape and size of the wall are leading here. We will be happy to show you a cut-out of the size that suits your wall.

As each work is custom made for you, we do not keep any stock. In order to give you a good impression of the end result, we have developed a handy app, so that you can see how a piece will look on your wall. Choose your artwork, take a picture of your wall and see what works. Read more about our app here.

Yes, just send us an email including the work’s reference number and your wishes to info@artheroes.com.

Pricing is standard, except where the customer has a discount voucher.

The prices are mainly decided by the artist itself. The artist can choose to adjust their own margin, making some works cheaper and some more expensive.

The products displayed on the site vary on the basis of each user’s behaviour and preferences.

Materials and quality

Check out our materials page for a detailed explanation and videos of the different materials. You can also find frequently asked questions per material here.

There are many suppliers of art prints. We position ourselves in terms of quality rather than price.

You can see detailed close-up photos on our materials page.

At Art Heroes, all materials are of the highest quality, made by hand. Passionately crafted by true professionals. View all materials and information here.

Delivery to Switzerland: prices quoted exclude VAT and import duties for deliveries to Switzerland.

We work with several carriers. Couriers can also be used for large or fragile packages.

Canvas are securely packed in plastic bubble wrap and cardboard. Wallpaper and posters are sent in sturdy tubes.

A courier collects the package from us and takes the package to a depot where it usually stays overnight. The day after it is collected and delivered to your home or office. We work with courier services that specialise in handling fragile parcels.

Not at home? Then the delivery driver will leave a note and an appointment can be made to schedule a new delivery.

Unfortunately, there remains a chance that something can happen during a shipment. In the unlikely event that your parcel has been damaged during transit, please take a picture of the entire item, the damage, the entire package and a picture of the shipping label. Send these photos to us by email and we will solve the problem without delay.

You can specify a delivery date in advance so that we can schedule the delivery on a more suitable day. Still not at home at the time of delivery? Then the delivery service will try next door or leave a note and an appointment can be made to reschedule. Please contact us if you have any questions.

Deliveries typically take place between 8:00 and 18:00. Once our parcel delivery driver has received all parcels, the final route is determined and you will receive an e-mail the day before with a specific delivery time, as well as a track & trace to follow your parcel.

This is often possible in consultation with the carrier. Please contact us and we can discuss the options.

Unfortunately, we cannot arrange for you to be called before delivery. You will still receive an email from us with the delivery date, an indication of the delivery time and a Track & Trace to follow your parcel.

We have no influence on the carrier's route and delivery times. We can schedule your order at your preferred time, but we cannot guarantee that your order will actually be delivered after a specific time. If you are not at home, the carrier will always try to deliver to your neighbours. If they are not at home either, you will receive a card in your letterbox with which you can schedule a new appointment with the carrier yourself. If you have missed the driver and no note has been left? Let us know and we will deal with this immediately.

Of course, you are free to ship your order abroad yourself. Good to know: do not underestimate the cost of sending large parcels abroad. In addition, most materials are quite fragile.

Hanging

Typically yes. You can, for example, attach a suspension system to the ceiling. You can easily order a suspension rail from STAS or get one from your local DIY store.

We have summarised some handy hanging tips for you. Click here and find out how to hang your work without and with a drill.
