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.
