Pricing your artwork

Many artists price their work based on size—using a dollar amount per square inch—as a fair and consistent starting point.

These calculators help you go a step further by factoring in your materials, framing costs, and even a resale markup if you're selling through a gallery or exhibition.

Try out both, and see what works best for you!
