Do you think that I know the formula?

If you think I may know this formula continue reading this article.

I think consistent pricing is key for successful art sales. This does not guarantee that the prices will increase over time.

And, how do you put a price on your efforts and artwork?

You may have to have your minimum for that size of the painting. But never forget that it’s good to think about the price including shipping to anywhere in the world. And the shipping needs to include a tracking number, to send to the art lover.

How do you decide on a logical approach? If you want that $1 million dollars price maybe there is no logical approach.

One solution for many artists is to select a pricing formula that works well for the art form and is a good fit for the stage of your career.

A formula can simplify an artist's life and makes it easier to explain your prices to buyers.

Consider one of these 5 formulas for pricing your work.
