How To Calculate Cost For Artwork:
1. The customer has to pay for ALL art materials (paint/pencils, paper/canvas, spray fixative/varnish, frame, etc.) that was used in creating the artwork. When you buy art supplies, keep your receipts, so you will know how much they cost. Or buy a notebook and keep a log of how much art materials cost. (Note: If the tube of paint cost, Example: $2.50, you would still charge the full amount of $2.50 even if you used a small amount of paint from the tube. So example, $2.50 x 4 tubes of paint used = $10.00. This would also apply to each pencil used).
2. The customer has to pay for labor – the time you spent in creating the artwork. There are two ways to calculate labor:
A) Give an ESTIMATE as the final cost, Example: Charge $8.00 (approximate minimum wage) every hour. Estimate how many hours you think it will take to create artwork, Example: $8.00 x 2 hours = $16.00. Giving an estimate is the better choice when doing commissions and writing up contracts because the customer will know the final price you will be charging for the artwork.
B) Charge the EXACT price, Example: Charge $8.00 every hour. Everytime you work on the piece of artwork, write down the time. When the art is completed, add up the times to get the exact hours you worked on creating the artwork, Example: 2 hours 25 minutes. Round Up or Round Down the minutes to get total. In this example, you would round up to 30 minutes which would be 0.50, Example: $8.00 x 2.50 hours = $20.00
0.25 = 15 minutes (Example: 2.25 = 2hrs 15min)
0.50 = 30 minutes (Example: 2.50 = 2hrs 30min)
0.75 = 45 minutes (Example: 2.75 = 2hrs 45min)
3. Make a profit: Add the cost of materials (#1 above) and labor (#2 above), Example: $10 + $20 = $30. Then you double, triple, quadruple, etc. that amount to get your profit, Example: $30×2=$60 or $30×3=$90 or $30×4=$120 and etc. You will have to decide how much “PROFIT” you want to make.
4. Add up amounts to get your grand total, Example:
$10.00 Materials
$20.00 Labor ($8 x 2.50 hours)
$30.00 SUB TOTAL
$60.00 GRAND TOTAL ($30 Subtotal x 2 Profit)
FRAMING:
