RE: What do you value, how do you value it and who will value it when you're gone...
Your Dad is an accomplished artist.
Who is to say whether his work now is less accomplished in his diminished state ~ perhaps they have a more naive, innocent, spontaneous and touching quality about them? I would love to see a few...
Value is a funny thing ~ back in the 1990's my paintings sold for £1800 each, nowadays I can't give them away.
As a vintage/antique dealer I kept lots of my finds but was never motivated by monetary value of a piece; rather I had to feel an emotional connection.
Too much emphasis is placed on material achievement and many a great soul is dismissed through the misconception of them being poor :(
I am sorry your Dad has dementia. My Mum had it and it is cruel beyond words.
With Love.
