Welcome Home
Art Notes
It is sunset, the dramatic end to a long day. The radiant cottage seems to summon the weary traveler with the message Welcome Home. Here, in this deceptively simple canvas is an image of the Prodigal Son – the outcast who finds a welcome in his Father’s house. That great bible story, with its message of love and redemption, inspires my heart repetedly.

Where can I sell this and forgot much ty
Hello Martha,
It depends on what works best for you as to where you can sell your artwork. Many people will list it for sale on an online marketplace such as e-Bay. Other people will search for an art auction house and see if there is an auction their artwork can be put through. You can reach out to a local Thomas Kinkade Studios gallery and see if they have suggestions for selling locally. Check our Gallery Locator page for a gallery near you, https://thomaskinkade.com/customer-service/galleries/ I know of some people who have put for sale ads in their local news paper and had luck selling their artwork. As far as how much to sell it for, that is up to you and what you think you can get for the piece.
We do not offer appraisal services here, but a quick way to check the value of your painting is to go onto 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 website. Type in your image name here and hit enter. If you find your exact piece, click into it like you want to purchase it today. Select your same options, size, edition and frame to get a general idea of value. If you do not find your piece, it might be sold out. You can then select another image as long as the other criteria matches 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.
I hope this helps!
