Can I Get a Print Once It's Sold Out?

If a print says it’s sold out, it means it cannot be printed again in the exact way. The print is limited and cannot be reprinted once sold out.

Some characters in my illustrations may reappear, so signing up for the mailing list is the best way to stay updated on new releases.
