Hi Zac, Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry. Scott Patterson (TMNK)'s works have been getting a lot of buzz in the primary gallery/retail market as street/urban art but because he was so contemporary, he does not have a large body of work that has come through auctions - it appears the current auction record for one of his pieces sold at Heritage Auctions in 2019 for $1,200 (https://www.liveauctioneers.com/item/73598737_jerkface-american-20th-century-tmnk-2015-scr). I expect his works will continue to gain traction in the secondary (auction) market but it will take time. This work is a good example of his oeuvre, which is particularly more desirable now that he is no longer making more work. Based on the photos and information provided, and subject to examination, this is: TMNK ('The Me Nobody Knows', American, 1968 - 2016) with Scott Marsi "Love Poetry", 2014 Mixed media (poster and paint on board) 24 by 36 inches CONDITION: client purports this to be in "excellent condition" PROVENANCE: unknown $ 800-1,200* *represents a fair-market value for auction purposes; retail or asking price may vary. Please let us know if you have additional items to appraise, or questions/concerns, and thank you again for using Mearto. ~ Delia
