Answer 1

Hey Tava,

For a beginning artist, generally, it is best just to recoup your costs. You cannot count the time you put in (or it might not sell).

Figure what it costs to make, then double that cost, at most three times the cost. So, if it cost you $100 to produce, then sell for $200 to $300.

Then post it at one of the art sites on the web. The laws of supply and demand will take over from there. If it sells right away, next one you raise the price. Keep track of all your sales, and then begin to increase your asking price if sales go up. By notifying the purchasers of your increasing prices, they will appreciate knowing what they purchased from you is worth more. So, if they sell your paintings for more - you have justification to raise your prices too.

What length is it? i might say a minimum of a pair of hundred. i don't be attentive to a good purchase approximately advertising and procuring paintings yet i might say you may desire to in all probability get as much as $4 hundred perchance. i'm basing this off of the auctions they have at my college (Academy of paintings college)
