Default Painting Appraisal

Anyone familiar with an artist by the name of R. Blalock? I have a painting by him that I would like to get appraised.

That's him. During my research I learned that he is one of the most copied artists so this painting may not be original. Found it when cleaning out my mother-in-laws house.

You can look up offerings by artist. This will tell you if there is a resale market by the number of paintings the artist has for sale.

Have you talked to King's Gallery in Spanish Springs on Main Street? Here's their facebook page.

Just determined this painting is not what I thought. The real artist was Ralph Blakelock. This painting is signed R. Blalock. Close but no cigar.

If you Google his name, Richard Blalock, you will see several of his flower paintings that go for anywhere between $25 and $99.
