Big time!   I e mailed an art apprasle (spelling?)  to see how much he thought it was worth. No response yet.  But bless you again for finding her. ;DWell that guy must deal in big time art. He told me little sale, to sell it on e bay. Very rude!. Oh well I just wanted to know the value. But he still didn't have to be like that, :'( almost made me cry  lol

don't be disheartened - its all a learning curve - and heck--without knowing who he artist was -- you wouldn't have known a thing about the pic.   Besides, its a lovely pic..

That appraiser had probably never seen or heard of any of her paintings .... and he would even think about telling you that.

Click on the following link and ask that gallery about it or who to contact about it. They just might tell you. ;D ;D

This type of art sells for very little in the UK. 20th century American artists paintinging in this style seem to be copying Victorian art but adding colours seen more in work by Robert Cottingham and other photorealists. Blues and reds that don't appear in the natural world.

But she had one sale for $850.00. I don't understand. Just wanted to know the value of this one.

Often see $20 items marked up at hundreds of dollars and plenty of examples on the forum. Art is the one area where it can be done most though as it's very subjective.

$20 is a good price to pay though, as i could see this being sold for five times that quite quickly

You honestly say that you have a painting by an "award winning" artist!

She won a few. Found sites with her home and e-mail address but that'll do little to help you with value !
