Featured Anyone have an AskArt account that can help me with artist Bill Girard?

So I originally emailed the artist about a year ago but have yet to get a response. It' obviously his work as the signature is exactly the same as well the style, and he lives in the next town over from me and where I found these. I'm curious as to what to ask for them. I can see he' got multiple items sold but do not have any artist research accounts. These aren' his usual medium as it appears he works alot in bronze but I was hopeful these were early pieces since they are in what seems like pewter and only about 3" tall each.. If anyone could help I'd really appreciate it, as I've been sitting on them a while and after loosing my job of 20yrs I'm trying to prepare for the tough times ahead... TIA Everyone!

 

So sorry to hear about your job.....hopefully something much better is around the corner!!

 

Thank you Judy, I'm sure there will be, but better to be prepared if not right away..

 

I cant make out the name?You might try looking at ebay completed sales for his work and see what they go for.For some reason I keep thinking chess set.

 

I'e tried completed listings looks like most of his art sells from where AskArt is advertising at the moment.

 

Not that this is much help to you, but when the sole source of an artists work is on his/her website, there is seldom a secondary market for the work.

 

I went looking for solds and see you have listed the lot.
I usually sell little pewter animals for at least 9.95 each in my B&M.

 

I figured I'd take a chance and go ahead and list them won't be long before cash flow into the home will be depleted. But thank you all for your help..

 

Very sorry to hear that. Hope things will look up for you soon.
In the meantime we will try to help with any information we can give you, and a listening ear if you need it.

 

Thank you for your kind words you'e all so sweet and value everything you guys have shared with me! Again thank you So much!

 

Very sorry to hear about your job loss...hoping things start looking up real soon.

 

So sorry to hear about the loss of your job. Hope also that you're on an aggressive hunt for a new and better one!!!! GOOD things come to those with mettle!!!!!!

 

It looks pretty definitely like it says Bill Girard to me, but others may have a differing opinion.......edited and sharpened.....best I can help!!! But then you had already nailed that!!!!

 

If this is the Bill Girard from Michigan, and this appears to be his style. He passed away in 2011. He is my mother’s cousin

I appreciate that very much, this was actually posted a while back in Jan of 2018, I have since made a huge come back and now making just shy of double what I was at the previous company we had to move away from New Mexico all the way to Washington but we are all doing much better now!

 

A new door did open!

So happy to hear the news!
