Pricing – traceymiles.art

It’s very important to me that my work is affordable for everyone so I charge £200 a day as I think that’s about par with a tradesman.

Cost for completed Art varies depending on the type of work; a sale of work already created, teaching, an event, a commission and also the complexity of the work involved and therefore the time it takes to complete.

The rate is standardised across the board as it’s about my time and current level of expertise.

Size, media, surface and subject matter don’t affect pricing really on this basis and so I hope the below is clear and understandable:

SALES

I produce varied work each week as part of my practise and in order to keep my skill set honed, so this is pretty much all for sale and affordable; Generally studio work is between £50 up to £500

EVENTS

For working at your day event generally £200 plus £50 for materials and travel covers it.

WORKSHOPS

I charge the same rate, so £100 for a half day and £200 for the day but there’s an additional £50 for a model and materials if needed

WEDDING

This work is on this daily rate too but there may be significant additional travel and accommodation costs which add to this.

It may also spill over into the commission work if I’m then completing a painting back at the studio as well:

Wedding paintings can be completed within a 4 week timeframe to allow time to organise printing of thank you cards too if required.

COMMISSIONS

For bespoke it is costed around the time it takes me to create it, at the same rate: For clarity

I keep notes on all time spent actually working,

I generally have half the week available with around 5 hours actual painting time a day.

I make Timelapse videos of work in process and this also shows you much of the time spent;

I like to work on a number of things at once, this keeps it clear for commissioners. I also keep detailed notes on all time working on all aspects of your piece readily available to you.

There’s an initial consultation and then a face to face meeting where we discuss and agree initial aspects including budget with a deposit at that point. This covers the consultation, research time, drawings and a study for your approval before starting the final piece.

There’s also communication and ongoing consultation for your agreement/approval during the main work with imagery available.

Payment is staggered into 3, 4 or more; an upfront deposit, when I’m ready to start the main piece, on completion and then remittance on delivery; though it can be by monthly instalment.

Feel free to contact me: If you leave your contact information and a brief summary of your enquiry I will get in touch with more information including a ball park figure on price and we can have a no obligation chat in the first instance.
