I price similarly (though on a lower scale at this point), though may tweak things up or down if I personally feel the piece is a favorite. I do think it's justified to up it a bit if frame is pricier than others. Never thought about graphing it all though to see trends and patterns. How ingenious!<br /><br />(btw, lovee this painting; such wonderful depth seen here!)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19082684.post-4215940604340295182009-08-02T16:54:16.081-06:002009-08-02T16:54:16.081-06:00Nice painting and informative post.

I use a similar modified price per inch formula doublechecked against other artists' prices.

One thing I've noticed in the gallery is that not everyone prices consistently by size, though the gallery encourages it. Some people price by time spent on the piece, or by how much they like the piece, or by how much they paid for the frame. That strategy is just too subjective to the general public, and too random. It makes sense to collectors to see consistency in pricing. Your strategy is a smart one.

I...Oh yeah, your inner engineer is showing. haha. It's extremely logical and fair though. I'd rather spend money on art that I thought was fairly priced with LOGIC behind it rather than someone just thinking they could get a certain price for it. I think it takes some of the emotion out of it and probably makes things much easier for you.Heidihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13716601445523807043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19082684.post-81122225196837334082009-07-31T08:17:53.003-06:002009-07-31T08:17:53.003-06:00I'd never thought that deeply about my pricing...I'd never thought that deeply about my pricing structure; mine's developed over years, and I got interested to see what my "curve " would look like, if I did a similar graph.

It serves as a baseline for tracking retail prices over time and making secondary decisions about what I should buy (first decision is if I like it or not!). If I like two pieces equally as well, why not buy the one that is selling at a more competitive price? Of course there is sometimes a "WOW I have to have that" factor that will throw the spreadsheet out the window. I have paid $7.87 psi for 1200 sqi to $8.68 for 144 and $3.57 for 252. All from established artists painting for 6 to 15 years. I rarely make impulse decisions unless I know the painting is a good value for the quality or artist. Bottom line is nothing beats putting original art on your wall and hunting for quality and value is part of the fun.labrownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00966560607319395028noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19082684.post-4043668299069486722009-07-31T00:45:20.906-06:002009-07-31T00:45:20.906-06:00Stacey, this is such a timely post for me as I'...Stacey, this is such a timely post for me as I'm in the process of constructing my web site. I too had opted for the price per square inch formula, but I will certainly review this strategy after I've digested the information you've provided.<br /><br />One of the more noteworthy points raised in the articles you've linked to is that it's better to raise prices in the face of unexpected demand than lower them to kick-start sales, upsetting past clients in the process.<br /><br />How to price limited-edition prints is another hurdle I'll have to face! Do you have any thoughts on this topic?Peter Brownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04750958946589052344noreply@blogger.com
