How to Sell Your Thomas Kinkade Paintings



Since the untimely death of the painter of light, Thomas Kinkade’s paintings have become more popular and attracting higher prices. This is especially so for limited editions. Do you own a Kinkade painting that you wish to sell? Here’s how to go about this.



First of all, learn as much as you can about your painting. Many people don’t know much about their paintings and end up selling them for much less than they are worth. Is your painting an authentic print and do you possess the certificate of authenticity. What edition is it? What is its size and does it have any damage? Taking into consideration such details will enable you create your unique selling point. After considering this, consider how much you wish to receive for the painting. Of course the print might have increased in value but don’t be too far fetched. Just get a realistic estimate.


With this information ready, the second thing to do is find your potential buyer. Art dealers are a great option since they are very likely to be in the search for Thomas Kinkade paintings. Approach an art dealer with your proposal to sell. If possible visit a couple of art dealers and schedule a date when you will present the painting.

If visiting a couple of art dealers doesn’t appeal to you, a less time consuming way to go is the internet. There are many online websites dedicated to buying and selling Thomas Kinkade paintings. Approach them with your proposal to sell. Many will ask you for the price you expect for the piece. Besides websites dedicated to buying Thomas Kinkade paintings, you can also sell your painting through bidding websites such as eBay. You can also open an account in Amazon and put your painting on sale.


Selling your Thomas Kinkade painting isn’t a hard process. The main thing is to have all the necessary information regarding your painting. This allows you to have a unique selling point which will enable you get a good price for the piece.
