Pricing Your Images

[Paul Merritt]

I have an exhibit set to begin this Friday at our local Audubon. It will be my first exhibit. All (24) of the images are 13" x 19" in 18" x 24" frames. The prints were done by me on my Canon Pixma Pro9500 (pigment ink) on Ilford Smooth Pearl. The frames are Nielsen and the Mat board and mounting board are acid free. The glass is non-glare UV.

I would like to know what you think would be fair pricing. Any input would be much appreciated. I must give 20% of the price to the Audubon. Here is one of the images.

Paul - You have to consider your local market in pricing. What I might price in New Mexico would not necessarily fly in New York City. I even see vastly different pricing levels between Albuquerque and Santa Fe, only about 45 miles apart. Given that, I have prints of the same quality and size/mat/framing as yours, and those are priced at $275 for the Albuquerque market.

Beautiful image, btw.
