Hey everyone;
Hope your week went well….When I first started out on this journey I was always timid about discussing the price of a particular creation with the buyer . Not sure why, but but the quicker you get comfortable with this aspect the more success you should have… I have seen all types of pricing schemes , from no price listed, to the craziest of crazy inflated prices, to one that was based on a base price, plus a percentage of certain economic indicators… As my career has progressed and I became an established artist I started pricing my art creations to allow for the consistency and growth that collectors really appreciate and look for. I recently sold a painting that I applied the square inch technique to. Each painting is charged at 1$ per sq/in. Painting was 50 x 30…got the total of those…… 1500. Using this methodology the price set at $1500.00. (*the 1$ was based on historical sales data- sometimes I might go down for a larger piece or go up if the piece is framed) so as you can see its really easy to get a price worked up and takes the hassle out of this aspect…… but when the price is set, and the collector really, really, really wants the piece…..there are always the negotiations…lol…congratulations to my new collectors… hope you enjoy your new piece!!….
Heave a great week everyone…
……peace
