Art Pricing Calculator

Finally, Fair Pricing for Artists of All Sizes

Traditional art pricing methods like “price per square inch” create unfair pricing that makes small paintings too cheap and large paintings too expensive. This smart art pricing calculator solves the common problem artists face when pricing original artwork by automatically adjusting for canvas size.

Our algorithm recognizes that smaller pieces often require just as much time, skill, and detail as larger works, while very large paintings can be completed more efficiently. Instead of charging the same rate per square inch regardless of size, this tool gives smaller artwork the premium pricing it deserves while keeping larger pieces accessible to collectors.

Note: Prices are automatically rounded for professional presentation – to the nearest $25 for pieces under $500, $50 for pieces $500-$1000, and $100 for pieces over $1000.
