Selling an original artwork in Chatham-Kent
Chatham-Kent is a single municipality covering a large stretch of the most productive farmland in the country, with a number of small towns inside it rather than one city. Agriculture and food processing are the economy, and the flat land here is drained farmland rather than natural prairie.
Agree which town before anything else — this is a municipality the size of a county and the distances inside it are real. Trucks and trailers are ordinary, so moving something large is rarely the problem.
Confirm which town the item is in and the actual driving distance before agreeing a price. This municipality is the size of a county and a collection can be forty minutes each way inside it.
Chatham-Kent, in Ontario, has around 105,000 people, which means a small local market, which makes the nearby towns part of your audience rather than an afterthought. Toronto, Ottawa and Brampton are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Chatham-Kent
Canada Post, Purolator and UPS cover the country, but rates change sharply between provinces and remote postcodes carry surcharges.

What original artworks are worth
What lifts the price
- Original frames appropriate to the period
- Sound surfaces with no flaking or overpainting
What pulls it down
- Unsigned works with no attribution
- Flaking paint and craquelure needing conservation
Working out what yours is worth
- Search auction results for the artist’s name
- Note the medium, dimensions and any damage
Getting it ready
- Photograph any signature, and check the back for labels, gallery stamps, inscriptions or exhibition stickers.
- Do not clean or restore it. Amateur cleaning destroys value far more often than it adds any.
Photograph
- The full work straight on in even daylight, no glare, no flash
- A detail of the surface showing brushwork or print texture, plus any damage
Put in the description
- Medium and support: oil on canvas, watercolour on paper, print and so on
- Provenance: where you acquired it and any documentation, plus condition
Slower and more considered than most categories, often weeks. Well-documented pieces with clear provenance sell far faster and higher than vague ones.
Listing is free and there is no selling fee, so the whole amount the buyer pays stays with you. You and the buyer agree the handover between yourselves.
