Our appraisers evaluate a broad spectrum of artwork, from traditional fine art to contemporary works and culturally significant pieces with deep ties to Oklahoma's history. We appraise:
Oklahoma's strong connection to Native American culture and Western heritage means that many collections in the state include pieces tied to tribal markets and regional history, categories that require appraisers with specialized knowledge of those markets. Our team is equipped to handle these nuanced valuations with the depth of expertise they demand, whether the work originates from a local artist or a nationally recognized name.
AppraiseItNow serves a wide range of clients across Oklahoma, including private collectors, estate attorneys, executors, financial advisors, insurance professionals, nonprofit organizations, galleries, and individuals navigating divorce or charitable giving decisions. From Oklahoma City and Tulsa to smaller communities throughout the state, we provide accessible, professional artwork appraisal services to anyone who needs a credentialed, USPAP-compliant valuation.
What clients say we are known for
Across 80+ published AppraiseItNow reviews the picture is consistent: every one is from a client who paid us for an appraisal, and the three things they raise most often are that they would hire us again, how quickly we answer, and how much research is visible in the report.
The appraisal was done very well. Since he was a local artist here in Charleston, SC, they took the time to study and review Jim Booth’s art. His work has made him extremely famous, which can make an appraisal challenging, but they did a superb job and clearly explained how they arrived at the appraisal value. I highly recommend Appraise It Now and will use them again for all my artwork.
Artwork Appraisal for Insurance Coverage
AppraiseItNow did an excellent job appraising our unique art collection. Joe was always prompt and responsive, and he and his team delivered a thorough, well-supported appraisal in just a couple of weeks, even during the holiday season. I was genuinely impressed. Thank you for the great work!
Artwork Appraisal for Insurance Coverage
AppraiseItNow was amazing! My father passed with a large volume of artwork & I had no idea what it was worth. Their team was incredibly helpful and quick to respond with text and/or email to any questions as well as a status update along the way. Highly recommend!
Artwork Appraisal for Probate
I recently requested a retroactive appraisal for fine art from AppraiseItNow. I received excellent service from intake to delivery. The appraisal was delivered on time and the content of the appraisal absolutely met my expectations!

Popular uses of our appraisal reports include:
Through comparable sales analysis: we assemble recent auction and private-sale records for similar works from databases such as Artnet, Artprice, and AskART plus auction house archives, adjust for differences, and reconcile to a single conclusion. The IRS expects the report to state the method used and identify the specific comparable transactions relied on.
No. Insurance scheduling uses retail replacement value, the cost to replace the piece at current retail prices, while tax and estate work uses fair market value, which is typically lower because it reflects the relevant resale market. Using one where the other is required leads to underinsurance or misreported taxes.
Within two months of the personal representative's appointment under 58 O.S. Section 281, unless the court extends the deadline. The representative may state their own opinion of value, but any heir, creditor, or other interested person can demand a court-ordered appraisement, so documented art values prevent disputes.
No. Oklahoma imposes no state estate or inheritance tax, so art passing at death faces only federal estate tax if the gross estate exceeds the federal threshold. Date-of-death fair market value appraisals still matter for the federal return and for establishing the heirs' basis.
