These are definitely some of the greatest artworks that I have ever seen in my life. I understand that not everybody is going to agree with me, but believe me, I really do feel like these are great. If you ask me, I could definitely see this getting bought for a lot of money. Of course, it is not easy to predict that completely, but by my standards, these are just too good to pass up on. I can recommend a few buyers if you want.
