08/10/10	Catherine van Empel Burlington, ON CANADA	Dear Mr. Solberg, I have been a collector of wildlife prints for many years. I have just recently begun collecting your artwork. I greatly admire your skill and receive many wonderful comments from those who see the prints. I had bought Wings of Wonder some time ago and put it away as I was not ready to have it framed. Unfortunately the Certificate of Authenticity has been lost. Can you advise me as to whether this can be replaced? I also wonder if you could give me an estimated insurance and current market value. I have also had the good fortune of purchasing an original watercolor on illustration board dated 2/7/81 of an Indian. I had hoped you might share with me any history or comments you have that would expand my knowledge of this work. I have sent you a picture of the painting to your email. I do wish to insure it so I would appreciate your thoughts on establishing its insurance value and market value. Many thanks, Catherine	8/13/10 - Responded
07/28/10	Rhonda Lakatos San Jose, CA	Dear Mr. Solberg, It is so nice to find your website and learn that you are still creating beautiful, meaningful art. My husband and I purchased signed print 465/950 of Accept My Fathers Spirit back in the early 1980s. We were living in Running Springs and my husband taught chemistry at Rim of the World High School. We have always thought highly of your art and brought this piece along when we moved. Times change and now we have retired, downsized and no longer have room for all of our art. I would like to learn of the current value of this print. We may sell it to an appreciative buyer or donate it to our local Native American Health Center. Thank you for your time. Best wishes to you in your future endeavors. Warm regards, Rhonda Lakatos	8/13/10 - Responded
07/08/10	Patricia Harmon Benicia, CA	Dear Mr. Solberg, I have four of your signed and numbered prints that I would like to know the current value of please. The prints are: African Sun, Brown Bear, poster from Friends of the Sea Otter (not signed or numbered), and a 5x7 image of a caribou that was signed by you during a presentation in Oakland, CA in 1982. Your work is very special to me. Thank you, Patricia	8/13/10 - Responded
06/25/10	Terry Lorman Sparks, NV	I saw Challenge of the Wild at my Chiropractors office. It was amazing, especially since I am a wolf woman, I was hoping to find it, but I see it is discontinued. All of your artwork is beautiful. Thanks for sharing with the world.	7/15/10 - Responded

06/16/10	Dolly Petrishin	Dear Mr. Solberg, I very recently purchased 5 of your limited edition signed and numbered prints, that are all double matted and framed: Chippewa Lake, Edge of Yesterday, First Winter, On Winter Winds, and Watching. Is it possible to get an estimate of a current value of these prints? Thanks in advance. Dolly Petrishin	7/6/10 - Responded
04/11/10	Jim Dobbins Orlando, FL	Beautiful, do you ever come to Florida and have a workshop? I do watercolor and water mixable oils. I have been wanting to add wildlife to my watercolors and yours are fantastic. I see now you are in Spring Hill. Could I come to your studio and talk? Thanks, Jim	5/19/10 - I have been getting prepared for the summer season of shipping paintings and am sorry I have not responded sooner. I would love to do a workshop here in Florida.

02/15/10	Dorothy Wice Largo, FL	I own your "Birds of the Freshwater Marshes". In trying to catalogue my art and collectibles, I was surprised to find you now live in Spring Hill. I grew up in Clearwater and have lived in Largo now for 20 years. So welcome to Florida ... and trust me, this is an unusual winter for Florida. Normally the uniform of the day is shorts. Best wishes.	2/22/10 - Dorothy, Thank you for contacting me. I hope our paths will cross one day.
02/12/10	Ross Dunning	Mr. Solberg. My Uncle recently passed away and left me a print of yours that I really appreciate. Pronghorn Antelope on Hillside 485/1000. I was wondering if you had any stories behind the painting and an idea of value for insurance purposes. Thank you. Ross.	2/22/09 - Ross, This was my first limited edition print, published by the Greenwhich Workshop in 1978. It's value is $350-$450, unframed.
