Unfortunately David Hopkins was only successful in a regional sense, so I wouldn't expect it to skyrocket in value.





If you love the painting, keep it in your family for generations and it may one day become valuable.





If you would like to get it appraised, contact a major auction house like Sotheby's or Christie's. If they are interested, one of their specialists will examine it (and arrange to sell it for you) at no cost.I have an origional oil paiting by a well known artist, david hopkins. how do i go about getting it valued?
Try the art sales index.


Also you can get a valuation from a local auctioneer.
