I paint in watercolor and currently working on a 16x20 cold press paper that is 100% cotton. I charge $2.85 a square inch on all my work. So this commissioned work is selling for just over $900. I am going to mat and frame it as a courtesy because he's a friend of mine. Never under sell your work. Often times I put in over 60 hours on a painting. This is an awesome video!
This is an interesting perspective. I’ve worked with a few other artists who also price this way. I price by hour. I have some small paintings that are incredibly detailed. I have some large paintings that are simplistic. A super detailed painting might take me longer, even when it’s smaller. I pay myself an hourly rate and put that , plus material cost, as my painting price, rounded up
Where do you sell your paintings I'm an advanced artist and I'm transferring to Cal State Dominguez hills or Cal State LA I'm not sure yet but my major is the art and I really am a very very wonderful painter and I want to know where I could sell and be successful please let me know.
@@michellesoriano699 Unfortunately there is no one-size-fits-all answer. I sell at local markets and through my own social media pages and website. The beginning is usually quite slow. The most difficult part is finding your own unique audience. I recommend getting out there. Post a lot, consistently. Follow trends to increase your reach. Go to local shows and fairs too. At first it is slow but once you find your people, things get bette
I completely agree, it's not necessarily the size it's about the detail and time and effort put in the work. I do EXTREMELY detailed background-styled illustrations which may even take days on an A3 size. What I wanna know however, is how to calculate for prints? If I am not selling my original artwork but creating prints on an expensive water color paper, how do I calculate the price for that???
You gave me light Justin, Some individuals want to buy my paintings but I don't know how to price my work. I've been doing detailed still life oil paintings and spending a lot of hours to complete one but I am really glad that I saw your formula on pricing your artwork. Now I am confident even I use the formula for a beginner if it's for a friend or a relative.
I developed interest in painting during this corona lockdown... and was very fortunate to stumble upon your channel while browsing through for some lessons and tutorials. Your lessons are very informative and I like the way you explained things. I have painted a few paintings and posted them on my Instagram and FB, to my surprise, most of my friends said, i did a great job as beginner. It really makes me happy. Some even asked if they were for sale, to which i answered, I have no confidence in selling and said my paintings are not yet reach the standard for selling. I wish i could show you my paintings to see your comments either they are worth selling.
I really wanted to hear this. Sometimes when you start out the high number can scare people away especially if your not known but on the other hand you don't wanna under price yourself either.
Pricing this way is a much better tool when you can have your work professionally displayed, and you're a bit more established. If you're just a freelance artist on Etsy or shopping your art around, it is gonna be extremely hard to sell a 12x16 for 200 dollars. Even 100 dollars unless it's really compelling work.
That's great advice Justin I have never sold any of my paintings but I am told that I should so I am going to price them as you have shown and let's see what happens. P.S. I have shelves of them 🤣😂👍👍
It didn’t make sense to cut your measurement in half by multiplying by .5 just because your canvas is 1/2” thick. The thickness of the canvas should add to the value not subtract. By this method, a flat painting is worth more because you didn’t multiply by the third dimension. The thickness of the canvas should be added when figuring pricing using the linear method not square inch.
So, 30 seconds worth of content in a 7 minute video - impressive. Never thought that calculating the area of a rectangle to be so difficult that it had to be repeated over and over again.
What about a 13 year old who’s pretty darn good at everything “art”. She had some beautiful paintings she has done. I was thinking that because of her age, asking $25 for that size would be fair. What do you all think?
I’d be interested to learn his point of view. In my opinion-and I’m apologizing up front for taking a harsh stance, Ai art is artificial. It is an image generated by a computer and the image is based on other artists’ work. Even if you use numerous “unique” prompts and your imagination, it is still artificially generated from works found online-works other artists have created. If you think you can’t draw or paint on your own, I can tell you it is possible for you to do so. I liked the idea of using Ai to generated my own creations and quickly realized, if I’m going to be an honest artist, I need to put in the work. I am sorry again for being so direct. I wish you the best.
So really it's Beginner = length in inches x width in inches x $.50 /inch (round up to nearest $50 or $100) = price. Really large canvas, multiply by .75 and round up to nearest $100. Intermediate = length in inches x width in inches x $1/ inch (round up to nearest $100) = price Advanced = length in inches x width in inches x $2/ inch (round up to nearest $100) = price. If you can't get these prices, you may need to reduce by 25% - 50% while you establish yourself.
Hi Justin... selling my art always comes with a little fear.. Mostly because I am a coward when it comes to speaking up for myself . but people are always so critical and MEAN when I ask even for a reasonable price for my art.. I prefer to paint LARGE because it's just my comfort zone but I do paint (& DRAW)smaller as well. If I were to ask 100.00 for a 12 x 16 painting I would get laughed off the face of the earth. I am lucky to sell my paintings for 25.00.. People can be really MEAN and have no problem insulting and or critisizing for what I might ask for a painting.
Do people really buy paintings? I have almost given up on selling my work. People say they love it but never buy it. I don't know maybe I suck and everyone is to kind to tell me the truth or I'm just missing something on the selling side of things.
I've had a lot of success selling on Facebook Marketplace and on local buy/sell pages. Maybe it's because I live in an area where people really love to collect art.
If you paint one you feel good about, try entering it into a juried exhibit. Artists of all kinds enter their works and in a few days they notify you whether your painting was accepted into the exhibit. It’s exciting. You’ll meet many other artists. You’ll be accepted one day and going to the opening reception can be very inspiring for you. I wish you great fun with it.
Thanks, Justin, for that information. My estimates were much lower, and I've sold two pictures (0.8mX 1m) just for the prize of the material :-) Bless you always
This is NOT taking into consideration how much time you put into a painting at all! Experience is not anywhere equivalent to time invested in your work. You can have two of the same exact aizex canvases and invest 10 mins with clean up included into one and then 80 hrs into the other. You definitely would NOT want to price these the same prices! It’s also important to remember that your paining is only worth what the market is willing to pay for it. So if you price your painting to be $1200 and it doesn’t sell for 6 yrs, it’s DEFINITELY NOT worth that much and you should also be willing to explain to your customers how you came to that price tag because it will definitely come up when people scoff at your prices especially if it looks like something a child could produce in a short amount it time. While that may sound rude or harsh, it’s just the way the market works.
1. You are a beginner. 192x.5" canvas depth (96 round up to $100 plus shipping) 2. Intermediate (12×16=192) or $200 plus ship 3. Advanced (16×20=320. 320x2=640) Note: everyone sings for their supper. Be realistic about pricing
These are all lowballed. If you sell to serious collectors, they're expecting more than this. For instance, a website that sells to collectors lets you post your painting for a one time fee of $60 (they take no comission). But you MUST sell the painting for NO LESS THAN $1,000. And the collectors buy. I know a long time painter who's 24x18 canvases all go for $10,000. Collectors pay on installments. Get serious about your work and price it accordingly. Don't stay a low priced beginner. (Of course, make sure you're always improving your skills.)
Thank you for sharing your video. It was very helpful. My only coment is that I do paintpouring/abstract paintings on 8 x 10 canvas w/1/2" thickness. When I used your formula, it came to $40.00 per painting (unframed). I just thought that may be a little high for my style of painting. When I searched ebay, successfully bought paintings were more in the neighborhood of $17.00 to $20.00.
OMG! This is what I needed to hear. Yes I have to be confident of my art which I don’t have it right now. But this video of yours keep motivated and yes I don’t have to underprice myself and my art is valuable and I’m a valuable person!!! ❤ thank you for sharing Justin.
Sorry but I have to say this is quite illogical. For beginners, why divide the thickness of the canvas? That thickness can vary depending on how the canvas was made. And what if it was a canvas board? Are we going to divide by say 0.2? Then a 12x16 inch painting with half an inch canvas thickness will be 100$ but a board will only be $40? I don’t mean any trouble. Just really curious.
Good information. Perfect for beginners selling work. Bit of advice, your very redundant, it wastes time and makes your videos too lengthy for such a simple explanation.
Formula I was taught: Length (cm) + Width(cm) * material factor * experience factor = price With a graphite drawing having material factor 0,5, acrylic paint 1, oil paint 2.
This is a great video! Thank you Justin! Another thing I often wonder about is how much would the materials price/quality affect the final price? Does your calculation apply to student grade materials, like Winsor & Newton, or only to pricey supplies? Well, student grade paints are not cheap either :)
I'm not sure about the multiplying by the canvas thickness - why not just use the sq inch formula and say a beginner should start out at $0.50/sq/in? Also, I've seen many of these videos and the price per sq in recommended varies wildly. Baumann says the bare minimum any artist at any level should price their work is $2.00 per square inch (and it then goes up from there based on experience, local market, etc.). Vlad Duchev says $5 to $6 per square inch is the bare minimum.
I really really really appreciate this. I made my first paying paying for someone and it cane out AMAZING but so nervous on what if i charge too much? Am I worth it? Self doubt came crawling.
I'm not a pro yet but, I never took the thickness into account, just length times width then by $.60 per inch as beginner and as I sell more I'll give myself a raise. it worked pretty well for me at a local art walk and enough room to turn a profit, ill try your way and see if I like the math
Thank you for explaining ! I have wondered how the price is figured . I do have issues with self confidence in my paintings , because my style is so different . I am a folk art artist ,I think . I love to watch your videos , and look fowad to each one of them .
Sherry everyone has their own style of painting!, art is beautiful which ever way u paint! Being different is what you want! There’s a lot of competition with art, Find your style and stick with it. Paint from the heart, you can never go wrong!!!!! 😄
What would you recommend for a pre beginner 😂 I find really hard pricing my work. I don't know how to draw and never went to art school. I wish I could upload a photo of one of my paintings but don't know how.
So very helpful Justin! I didn’t know it could be such an easy calculation! Others have made it so complicated and left me scratching my head 😳❗️ Thanks for keeping everything so real 😊
Justin, this was good information. Talk for a moment about using canvas panels vs. wrapped canvas. I'm guessing you would poo poo using those. Beginners often use them because they are very economical and you can turn out a bunch of paintings without a lot of investment. But then you discover that friends want to buy them sometimes. I've gotten $25 at the very beginning and now I can get $75 for an 8x10, and $100 for a 12x16. I would consider myself in the beginner/intermediate category. I've got the skills to paint something, but I'm no pro.
Thank you so much for sharing this Justin!!👍 thanks a lot!! You are really helping a lot in all aspects related to painting!!👍...can you please give any idea regarding selling print outs of my paintings?.. thank you!... take care and stay blessed friend!💐
When my painting is complete I just come up with a random number I feel comfortable with if the person buying the painting is not happy with it we all have disappointments in life, let's not forget the greatest commodity his time and whatever is paid for your painting keep that in mind
confirmation from God that i need to sell my paintings for a $1 a square in. (watercolor paper) and I mostly do small paintings. Thanking you for breaking this down.
Good video. You get right to the point and explain the methodology clearly. I'm getting back into the hobby and thinking about the business side of things (assuming my work is up to par) and this is a big help. Thank you.
Thanks for this info Justin. I never really thought about it or how I would price them so this was a very good and positive thing to hear!! All the best to you!!

Can you tell How should an Ai art print priced? The same formula? Should it be the same as hand painting? Or less?
I’d be interested to learn his point of view. In my opinion-and I’m apologizing up front for taking a harsh stance, Ai art is artificial.

This is exciting! I never knew what to charge for a painting! Do you suggest trying to sell on Etsy? I don’t know of another place.
So really it's Beginner = length in inches x width in inches x $.50 /inch (round up to nearest $50 or $100) = price.
Really large canvas, multiply by .75 and round up to nearest $100.

It's a wrong title for your video! You should name it how to price your artwork !!!
What about the art itself? your just pricing the size not the art itself not the talent…thats very cheap…art is not cheap…talent is not cheap...
1. You are a beginner. 192x.5" canvas depth (96 round up to $100 plus shipping)
2. Intermediate (12×16=192) or $200 plus ship
3. Advanced (16×20=320. 320x2=640)

A quick question
Is this also possible for digital artworks too?
So very helpful Justin! I didn’t know it could be such an easy calculation! Others have made it so complicated and left me scratching my head 😳❗️ Thanks for keeping everything so real 😊
With so many good oil paintings for sale for $40 out there, who would pay $100 for a small painting by me? Seems pretty high.
I was left with over 1000 beautiful Art works ...Im green as grass on this 😢 need guidance .
Do you copy from others painting or you create your own style and ideas ??????
Interesting formula but I'm amazed you didn't once mention or factor in the quality of the actual painting and the time invested into it?
Justin, this was good information. Talk for a moment about using canvas panels vs. wrapped canvas. I'm guessing you would poo poo using those. Beginners often use them because they are very economical and you can turn out a bunch of paintings without a lot of investment. But then you discover that friends want to buy them sometimes. I've gotten $25 at the very beginning and now I can get $75 for an 8x10, and $100 for a 12x16. I would consider myself in the beginner/intermediate category. I've got the skills to paint something, but I'm no pro.

When my painting is complete I just come up with a random number I feel comfortable with if the person buying the painting is not happy with it we all have disappointments in life, let's not forget the greatest commodity his time and whatever is paid for your painting keep that in mind
I want to know how to sell paintings! would be willing to sell for a lot less than your price, but would love that price

I really want to see your art, and if possible i will Love to buy all now.
Are you the admin for the Bob Ross facebook group?
You're telling people to price their art way too low.
I’m in the beginner category and now use 2” canvases. 😂
Is this video a joke? I cant tell if you are serious hehe...
Good video. You get right to the point and explain the methodology clearly. I'm getting back into the hobby and thinking about the business side of things (assuming my work is up to par) and this is a big help. Thank you.
Is it me or does this only work for inches?
Superb video :) thank you for sharing :)
Thanks for this info Justin. I never really thought about it or how I would price them so this was a very good and positive thing to hear!! All the best to you!!
I'm an intermediate painter. Paintings just aren't selling right now. Can't get anything for them.
Your right , they aren’t selling at all right now I’ve heard that a lot lately. They will start selling soon.
Please can you inform me how can I send painting from India ?
Is that for oil painting or acrylic falls in that category as well?
Does this formula work no matter where in the world?
How do you feel about people selling their paintings they’ve made from one of your tutorials? Basically selling a non original.
Stephanie Raygoza I love it !! I absolutely love it !

How would you price a non original?
