with host artist Miriam Schulman
Pricing your art shouldn’t feel like standing on the edge of a cliff, but for most artists it does. I’m talking about why keeping everything cheap doesn’t make you generous, it makes your work harder to value and harder to sell. This conversation goes straight to the real reason collectors push back on prices and why that pushback is often a sign you’re finally doing something right. I also share how curating what you sell changes buyer psychology instantly and how to stop building your business around the wrong person. If you’re thinking about 2026 and want pricing that actually supports a full time art career, this is where it starts.
“You can’t price like a luxury brand while merchandising your art like a garage sale.” – Miriam Schulman
In this podcast, you will…
- Discover how curation increases perceived value without making more art
- Explore why price objections are not the red flag you think they are
- Create a simple price ladder that takes the pressure off every sale
“You don’t become full time by selling cheap work.” – Miriam Schulman
