Hansens Art Pricing Calculator

The Value of Visual Art is inherently subjective which makes establishing a commercial price for designs a very difficult task. Whether you are an artist who wants to self-value your work, or a buyer who wants to value the price of a design against industry benchmarks, the Hansens Art Pricing Calculator is for you.
Formula Behind Hansens Art Pricing Calculator

How does it work?

The formula behind Hansens Art Pricing Calculator is designed by Nerida Hansen, an experienced buyer, design agent and licensee. Nerida designed this calculator after years of being asked “how to I price my designs?” and “what should I pay for this design”?

 

 

Nerida uses weighted key metrics, which acknowledges innate talent, artistry & technical skill.

The calculator follows 5 simple steps

#1

Enter the “ceiling” price which represents the highest paid price for the product category the art is being purchased for

#2

All values are scored on a scale between 1-10

#3

A weighting is calculated for each score

#4

A total weighted score is calculated as a percentage

#5

The percentage is then applied to the ceiling price to give a realistic commercial value

Resulting values do not need to be fixed, but the calculator acknowledges subjective values & provides a guide to pricing for both artists, and buyers.

It also provides a common ground for artists & buyers to negotiate from.
