figure the artist style of painting, write on your own words how to describe the
distinct characteristics of the painting. Try to know if the artist used
abstract, surrealism, impressionism, or any different styles in the painting. As
much as possible, be specific in describing the color tones also.

Provide detailed descriptions to the canvas art work – Describe if the painter
traced out some drawings using a pencil or did he paint right away; explain the
direction of the brushstroke the painter often used also; and try to check any
distinguishing marks on the painting. Try to look at the back of the paper for
any writing’s or stamp marks. Remember, every bit of detail that you find is
important.

4. Conduct a personal research over the internet – Make use of
your personal computer and research about the details you have collected. Try to
gain knowledge about those details. Stamp marks, branding details on the frame,
distinct symbols, and writings on the canvass may indicate the age of the
painting and the artist’s identity. This is very important as some collectors
will pay more if they see any marking that would give clue to painting’s
authenticity and age. Try to know if such paintings having similar details were
sold in the past and take note of the price. It’s possible that the sold
painting from the auction did not make the painting that you have. But if they
bear the similar markings, then you painting may be worth as much as the one
sold because the details can tell the time or era the painting was
created.

5. Consult a professional – Now that you have a general idea
about the possible price of the painting, it’s time to meet an expert. Gather
all the collected information, give it to him, and have the painting examined by
him as well. If the painting is found out to be valuable, try to decide whether
you will keep it for yourself as an investment, or have it sold to an auction.

assets.
