How do you price your art when you are starting out?

A simple method: your costs, your time, the format, and a range of prices so every budget can buy something.

A simple method: your costs, your time, the format, and a range of prices so every budget can buy something.

Price from your costs and your time, then build a range: a few accessible pieces, a middle one and a rare one.

Start from your costs

Materials, printing, framing, shipping supplies. Your price must cover them with room for your time.

Build a range

Small formats or prints at a low price, originals higher, one-of-a-kind pieces at the top. Each level reaches a different budget.

A real example

On HYK, Jungle Raiddog sells originals from €25 to €215, and pieces at every level have found buyers.

Raise over time

When a series sells out, the next one can cost more. Do not lower the price of what is already sold.

Next step: Publish your first artwork on HYK at app.hyk.media. Then read the Pricing guide.
