A New Day Dawning
Art Notes
A New Day Dawning, first in my Romance of the Sea collection, celebrates the many exciting new days that keep each of our lives vibrant and exciting — whether we are young or old, married or single. The distant ship voyaging out to sea brings to mind the wondrous adventure that each new day brings, and the dawn light that breaks over the surging sea recalls Paul’s thrilling affirmation in Romans 13:12: “The night is far gone, the day is at hand.”


I love this painting!
I paid around 1,000 for this painting years ago. It’s certificate number is 842/3950 S/N Canvas
It’s in excellent condition. Could I have the value?
Hello Pattie,
We do not offer appraisal services here. A quick way to check the value of your painting is to start right here our website http://www.thomaskinkade.com and search for the title, size, and edition of your painting. There is a search box in the upper left hand corner of the page, green in color. Type in the name of your piece here. If you find your exact piece, click into it like you want to purchase the piece. You would then need to select the same options (size, edition, media, frame) of your piece. If you do not find your exact piece, it might be sold out. You can then select another image (the prices are determined by size, edition and frame not the image) to get a general idea of value for your piece. This piece is sold out, so you would need to select another image that is the same size, edition as your piece to get an estimated value of your piece.
If you need a formal appraisal for your insurance company, there are many factors that are part of an art appraisal especially when a painting is sold out, including edition, size, frame choice, condition, image availability, and the local art market. The best source for assistance in obtaining a third-party appraisal is a local appraisal firm in your area. Local appraising firms understand the secondary art market in your region and have the ability to give you the best estimate of value for your Thomas Kinkade Limited Edition Artwork.
