Dear Kathleen,
Thank you for the additional images and your patience.
The presented object appears to be a painting made in oil or tempera on canvas with unknown measurements. The artwork depicts a Balinese temple scene with a dancer in a typical Balinese costume in the middle, musicians, and numerous visitors of the temple. The artwork is signed with the name Jmo Suarta. Sadly no further information regarding the biography of this artist is mentioned in reference books or similar databases.
Works by this artist were recently not 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 30 to 60 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

I sent a few more pictures. I will try to send another of the signature but it isn't very clear on the canvas, so it becomes difficult.
