There’s a surprising number of people who I see posting polls and journals asking ‘what should I charge for commissions/my art?’   Every single time I see this, and the consumer responses I physically cringe. 9 times out of 10 the consumers are telling the artist $10-$20 max. Period. That’s it. A lot of these artists are trying to balance prices for consumers with the quality of their art and how much they can make to supplement their income. What do I mean?   I mean that a severely large number of artists are selling themselves short and cheating themselves, as well as the rest of us, by setting their pricing standard
