Question

I'm in Austin, TX and trying to sell five prints under glass (signed and numbered) and two oils (numbered). Is there an option to do this, other than eBay?

Community Answer

Yes. You could try Etsy. Artsts use it all the time, so it might work for you.

Question

What is the certificate of authenticity, and where would I locate it?

Community Answer

It should have been given to you by the seller of the artwork. Especially if you bought it in a gallery. It's a seal on a document that states that the artwork is authentic (real, not a fake).

Question

I have a sketch of a Thomas Kinkade drawing. It's about 8x10 and looks like it's done with pencil or charcoal. How do I tell if this is print or original?

Community Answer

At this point, they're pretty much worth the same. Keep it for a good story to tell.

Question

How do I find the value of my Thomas Kinkade painting if I lost the certificate of authenticity?

Community Answer

I worked for the company, and I'm sorry to say that without the certificate of authenticity, the only value of it is in the enjoyment of the viewer.

Community Answer

The Shropshire Gallery in Massachusetts can help you. It is one of the oldest TK galleries in the USA. Email them first to ask if they'll help and what they need to know from you.
