I recently found 2 H.V. Law watercolors too.  My research indicates
that yes indeed they are valuable.  Last auction his work sold for
over $1,000.  There is a web site that will give you a free value
range.  The website is www.californiawatercolor.com.  It is a great
site to ask questions.  I would be very interested to hear what you
find out.  What size are your pics?
