Fine Art image pricing is typically some combination of these four components:
1) Artist Fee, 2) Print Fee, 3) Display Fee (matting and framing, etc.) and 4) applicable Packing/Shipping fees.
My Artist Fees are constant across all print types and apply to ranges of print sizes (itemized below).
Print Fees are determined by the printer. They are calculated on the exact square inch coverage of each printed piece and are unique for each type of Fine Art print (paper, metal, mounted, etc.).
A Display Fee comes into play when you order Fine Art prints that your local frame shop will be matting and framing for you (sample image below) or a canvas print they’ll be stretching. Most other pieces fall under the Ready-to-Hang category meaning they are composite pieces and everything is built into the Print Fee (sample image below).
Packaging and Shipping costs vary and will be calculated during the ordering process.
Below are my Artist Fees and some popular print sizes which fall under each. Below those I give pricing for several Fine Art print types for two different sizes.
