    Art cost dilemma

    Yss thank you. There isn't really a easy answer of exact cost. I'll have to time myself and pay attention to how detailed the designs are. Wish there was a picture of art and beside the prices. Be so much easier to get a image on what is worth what

    Art cost dilemma

    Hey all. So I have decided to start charging for art due to taking classes and product charges and becoming more experienced.
