Took a half hour break from fitting my kitchen to do this one in oils on used canvas. I have a sale coming up so need to get a few ready ( mostly because the shed and house if full!). Would appreciate any help with sales as I've no idea about them and always charge too little according to friends ( £5-£10 each mostly). How much do you guys charge usually? 🙏🖖
If you just want to cover your materials 40 USD per 16*20. But you better calculate yourself depending on paints, brushes, canvas, solvents, varnishes used.
Pretty painting
Thank you @Sunnylady that's a 24"X10" canvas, don't think I'm good enough to charge £200+ for it though! By my calculations I've spent no more than £10 creating it so I might try to triple my money 😁
I would say for this you should start asking 50 and then go down to 45. Also, Triple check your costs. We (as people) usually underestimate the cost of something. Count depreciation of brushes, easel, etc. electricity, classes you took.
Thank you. What price on sanity? Painting gives me hope and calm time, a chance to relax and forget the world. I've been struggling lately so NEED to paint, it's my saviour along with as much Star Trek as I can watch 🙏🖖
Same with me. Except Star Trek :) that is why I am not a professional artist coz I am way too shy to charge for my paintings.
This is totally you Niv!!! I really love this painting!
Good Morning from Germany, Niv.I like the colour combi in this . Great looking sky. Evaluating your own work and setting the price is always difficult and depends on the effort. (18 x24 cm 60-90€/ 24 x30 cm 100-140€ Canvas, oils, with frame )My last prices. Hope ist helps 😎👊🏼

Average for new artists is 1 dollar per square inch. So if you have 8*12 inches = 96 dollars. At least this is recommendation that I found on internet quite some time ago.
