Hello,
Welcome to Grove Canada's studio website...A place where we can see & work on ideas & paintings & keep in touch with our friends...So often people wonder, what do you do? & where have you been for the last three months? & are you ever going to get a real job? Well, here we are...stop by, say hello, enjoy the art...If you might like to purchase a painting, drop us a message & we will make sure it is still available, find out where you are for a shipping estimate, & discuss price & payment options... |

Ballpark pricing a painting:
get the measurments...Say 24x36
Multiply those two numbers...
864...If you are paying a dollar per square inch then that is $864.00
Now, if the artist has a gallery, then they should be paying one third of the final retail price to the gallery...
So, an easy way to figure out the final retail price, if the artist has a gallery...
Take the 864 dollars...Cut that in half=432
Add that 432 to the 864...(the 864 is what the artist has to get back)...
So...864 plus 432 equals...1296 or $1,296.00
That is what you should pay before taxes & shipping & packaging...
That way, the artist gives the gallery one third commission, 432 dollars & then they go home with the 864 dollars for their troubles...
Now, this is a bare bones MINIMUM price...Below one dollar a square inch you may be cutting into the artist's livelihood...
(You might assume that the artist's profit is half that number, the 432 again- meaning they are spending 432 on materials, which may include their artist website, c.v. statement & any other supporting materials, studio rent or whatever else in costs went into painting that painting...)
So...My paintings are going for $1,200.00 Canadian currency right now...Based on the minimum one dollar per square inch plus gallery commission...This price is considerably lower than my prices in 2001, about half...Though it is higher than I have had to sell for in the past decade, economy & all...I am hoping things will pick-up & return to a more normal number...In the interim though, I am happy to have survived the storm & am grateful for all of my sales in these lean years...
