About this episode

Do you ever feel like pricing your art is a scary mystery? You’re not alone!

In the previous episode, you heard me share several pricing techniques you can use for your art. And while you might think there’s a way to discover that one perfect price, here’s a surprising truth: the technique you use doesn’t really matter!

In this episode of The Savvy Painter podcast, you’ll learn about the real reasons you’re procrastinating on pricing your work and why your art might not be selling (hint: it’s probably not the price). I’ll show you how your brain can be your biggest obstacle with pricing and give you practical tips to overcome your fears so you can start pricing your artwork with confidence.

1:41 - Common fears that artists have with how they price their work and the truth about pricing

5:08 - The real problem you have with pricing and how it causes you to silently quit

9:52 - How your brain sometimes tries to stop you from doing something you want to do

12:56 - Why you can’t get it wrong and how to gut-check your pricing decisions

15:32 - A few guidelines to help you price your artwork

17:52 - Why, more often than not, your price has nothing to do with why someone didn’t buy your work
