I have recently come to acquire an amazing abstract painting by Roy Fluke, titled Bird Flight, painted 1961, 75cmx x 1.37m.

As I have a shop, I have had some interest - and offers - as to the value. I really have no idea! I am a new business, and while I would love to keep the painting, the money would come in handy at the moment Sad

I hope I haven't broken any forum rules in asking some ideas on value. I can link to some images, if allowed.

Thank you, Dave
