How do I estimate a quote for the commission I'd like?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

1.)  Multiply the width by the height of the size painting you'd like

2.)  Multiply this by the price per square inch to figure labor pricing.

3.)  If there is only one subject, simply add the base price to this for you total.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

EXAMPLE:  

 

 

10"w x 10"h = 100 square inches

100 sq in x $1.25 per square inch(psi) = $125.00 labor

$125.00 + $250 base

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If you have more than one subject, after completing the second step, multiply that number by the required percentage.  For an additional person, this would be 50%;  for a large subject, such as a horse, this would be 25%; and small subjects, such as a dog or cat,  it would be 10%.  Add this number to the original labor pricing amount for the total.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

EXAMPLE:

 

 

 

 

10"w x 10"h = 100 square inches

100 sq in x $1.25 per sq. inches(psi) = $125.00 labor

$125.00 x 10% (for additional small subject) = $12.50

$125.00 + $12.50 = $137.00 new labor cost

$137.50 + $175.00 base fee = $312.50
