Hello Courtenay,

Yes that is an idea, but l would so like to keep it but my boiler is on overtime and needs may mean to sell, it is hard to value really, an expert is a good idea, it is such a lovely painting. Thank you for your interest and wishing you a lovely weekend. x

You could always stick it on an auction site such as Ebay. If you posted a link to the auction here, I'm sure you would get quite a bit of interest - probably more than if you went through conventional means.

Thank you for advice l shall do that, just need to get an idea of value, and find out how link

Hi guys,
Just to let everyone know l am going to put my watercolour up for sale on EBay tonight, if l can manage to put a link on here l shall. Regards Lilah

Good luck with the sale, Lilah. To put up a link, just copy the link from your browser and paste it into your post on the forums.

Thank you Anita, l sadly cannot seem to be able to post my eBay link, l am only using an iPad at the moment so maybe that's why, it is on EBay under paintings headed Enid Blyton cover artwork, it's starting price is 75.00 it's a shame you guys carnt see it on here. Many thanks for your kind support .
Kindest regards Lilah
