Learning how to price art prints is a significant challenge for visual artists.
Since no accepted standards exist for pricing giclées, the industry term for digital fine art print reproductions, artists are left to costly trial and error methods. How to Price Digital Fine Art Prints, a new e-book by art print industry veteran, Barney Davey, fills the gap.
Artists informed with differing perspectives can use the knowledge to create competitive print pricing strategies. To help his readers, Davey chose top art marketing professionals with varied backgrounds to answer puzzling print pricing questions.
Barry Glustoff, a prominent digital fine art printmaker, and founder of Digital Arts Studio, says, “Visual artists can use this invaluable resource to discover how to competitively price fine art giclée prints.”
This one-of-a-kind reference for pricing digital fine art reproductions addresses thirty critical giclée pricing and print marketing questions, including these:
- Is pricing by the square inch the best method?
- Are there other effective ways to price prints besides per square inch?
- How important is consistency in pricing prints across different distribution channels, such as galleries, websites and selling direct?
- Should pricing for sale through galleries and dealers always be considered? In other words, if an artist is not in a gallery now, should her art prices include the markup to galleries? Or, only if there are plans to include galleries for distribution.
The author, Barney Davey, backs visual arts education, especially since arts program funding is being stripped from school budgets. To support the National Arts Education Foundation, $2.00 from every e-book order is donated to the NAEF. It assists teachers of art in America. Its programs improve the conditions of teaching art, promotes the teaching of art and much more.
The e-book, priced at $14.99, can be purchased and downloaded from the author’s website at: http://www.barneydavey.com/prices. E-books purchased on Davey’s site get an Exclusive Bonus Chapter; “Giclée & Digital Prints Insider Information.” It covers these important topics, and is not included with Kindle purchases:
- How Digital Fine-Art Prints (Giclées) Are Made
- Selecting a Giclée Printmaker
