Dear Sienna,
thank you for your email. This is more an oil drawing then a fully painted painting. This difference in the motif defines the difference.
With kind regards,

Got it, that makes sense! Thank you very much Gregory.
Dear Sienna,

Thank you Gregory! I had a smaller work appraised through Mearto by the same artist and it came back with a higher value and higher asking price. I’m wondering, why the difference in value and asking price? Thank you!
