Pricing explained
I believe in transparency when it comes to pricing my artwork. Here's a breakdown of how my prices are determined:
Hourly Rate: I charge 15 euros per painted hour, reflecting the time invested in each piece.
Frame and Construction: Additionally, I include the hours spent constructing the frame and canvas, as well as framing costs, in the total price.
Administration: I allocate 2 hours for administrative tasks related to each artwork, such as photography, listing on my webshop, and other paperwork.
Materials: The cost of materials, including canvas, paint, and brushes, is added to the hourly rate.
Tax: For paintings, I apply a 9% VAT rate, while prints are subject to a 21% VAT rate, calculated on the total price.
For example painting 'Serenity in the grass'
Hours painted: 32x15= 480 euro
Hours on frame and construction: 3x15= 45 euro
Hours on administration: 2x15=30 euro
Materials: 130 euro (frame included)
Tax: 61,65 euro
Total: 746,65
By accounting for these factors, I ensure fair and transparent pricing for my customers. If you have any questions about my pricing structure, feel free to contact me. Thank you for supporting independent artists!
