Original art on SCRAPD means work made by a human artist - paintings, drawings, mixed media, prints, and photography. This is deliberately the opposite of mass-produced wall decor and AI-generated images: every piece was conceived and made by the person selling it, and AI-generated listings are not allowed on SCRAPD.
Original paintings, drawings, and photographs are one-of-one by nature. Prints may be produced in a limited run, but each listing tells you what you are buying - an original or an edition. Either way, the work came from an artist’s hand and eye, not a stock library.
Because SCRAPD hand-reviews every storefront before it can sell, the Original Art category is genuine artist work - reviewed by a real person, no resold factory prints passed off as original. You can ask the artist about medium, size, framing, and process before you buy.
Each listing states whether it is an original or a print, and prints disclose their edition. SCRAPD hand-reviews storefronts and does not allow resold factory decor or AI-generated images passed off as original art.
No. AI-generated listings are explicitly rejected at review. Original Art on SCRAPD is made by a human artist.
It depends on the piece - the listing will say whether it is framed, mounted, or shipped as-is. Message the artist if you need framing details before buying.
SCRAPD currently ships within the United States, and each artist packs their own work. Artists generally take care to protect pieces in transit - check the listing or ask the artist about packing.
Often yes. Many artists take commissions. Reach out through the storefront to discuss subject, size, and medium directly with the artist.
Apply for a storefront and a real person reviews it, usually within 72 hours. Your work needs to be genuinely your own - no resold prints, no AI-generated images.
