Janet Gwendolyn Smith

Janet Gwendolyn Smith is an independent fine art appraiser, art consultant, art historian, art authenticator and curator. She is independent from any fine art gallery, auction house, or museum. Janet consults in the areas of authentication, appraisal, program design, collection development, inventory and documentation. She has been active in the art community since 1987.

Janet’s focus is her clients, their art and fine art needs. She creates the authentication file to be used by clients with recognized experts to assist in the review and authentication of the art.

Janet is available for art consultations. Clients include individuals, private collectors, non-profit foundations, state and city government agencies, insurance carriers, corporations, fraternal organizations, state and private museums, public and private galleries, and state, county and city historical societies.

Art is as unique as its owner. The fine art is reviewed based upon the artist and the individual owner’s requirements. We assist museums, non-profit organizations and private collectors with their collections. All services are fee based and under contract.
