Hi James,

Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry.
Howell appears to be represented by the Parklane Gallery in Kirkland, Wash, where is original oil on canvas works sell for high three-figures to low four-figures. His mixed media collage works in which he incorporates printed works are more rare than his more straightforward oil-on-canvas works and worth a bit more - a work of this size would rate a fair-market value of $2,000-4,000
Based on the photos and information provided, and subject to examination, this is:
