Faqs
what most people are curious about.
ARE THE works “REAL”
There is always a developing process in creative works both analog and digital. The overall goal is to create a great product, and not necessarily to replicate reality. But at the same time keeping it as real as the concept allows. All works are created “from the ground up”, so “as real” as what you’d normally find on similar platforms and prestigious galleries worldwide.
WHY AREN’T THERE MORE choices
Part of the concept is to reduce mess and quantity, and focus more on simplicity and quality. However, some existing content is not published yet, and some is in the making. Stay tuned.
WHERE DO YOU SHIP
Norway is the prioritized shipping area as of today. Feel free to reach out if you are interested, and your residency is located outside the shipping areas.
What’s with the watermarks
Most of the business is based on the value of visual content, often exclusive for its context. So watermark is part of preventing unsolicited use.
WHERE ARE THE works FROM
All work are custom made from Darner, unless there is a featuring product or a collaboration.
Is it created with pro equipment
Professional equipment is used throughout the process. Both for the illustrations, and for the post production of the photographs, which are originally processed from a full frame censor. This is normal within professional work as it creates more details with increased balance of colors and lights in the motif. The motifs are printed on industry leading printers.
Haven’t HEARD OF THIS WEBSITE
The goal is to simplify and create great quality work and take measures beyond what is considered normal in this industry. This approach may not be as effective for famous recognition compared to other more controversial approaches like posting on social media every day, but the result is better quality and an overall simplicity you won’t find much other places. Hopefully you’ll find some work you like without the need for endless scrolling and cryptic concepts.
What’s Darner
This site represents work from and by Darner, and has created customized design, photography, image editing and artwork professionally since 2006.
Are the artworks signed
The works are not signed by hand like the artwork industry used to be like and can still be. Rather they mostly have a small imprint which may vary in terms of placement, color and style.
Is it limitation on production
The products normally have a periodically limited production quantity, which means they’re not endlessly mass produced. At the same time, it’s not a final numbered limitation. Unless something else is announced. So if a product gets sold out, it will become available again after a certain period, with a new periodically limitation. Unless it gets replaced or removed which sometimes happens, and will normally not be available for sale any longer.
Are there works for sale AI GENERATED
No. And there is no downloaded content of graphics for sale from 3rd party stock sites.
