Dear Denise,
Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry.
The presented object appears to be three watercolors or ink drawings on paper with measurements of 8 × 10 inches and 5 x 7 inches. The artworks depict motifs from the art of the Native American Tribes of the North. These drawings were made by the artist Morley KAKEPETUM (b. 1936). His watercolors are sold around 80 to 150 USD.
Works by this artist were recently offered and sold on the international auction market.
This piece is in good condition and there is no serious damage visible in the images provided.
A fair market estimation would be between 250 to 500 USD.
This estimate is based on actual recent past recorded auction sales of comparable items. Retail "asking prices" can be higher and may vary.
With kind regards,
Georg
