What about miniatures?

Enzie, I am with you. It seems a big factor should be content and complexity, more so than size alone.

By your scale Richard, a miniature portait with all the content and complexity of a life size portrait might be a hundredth the price! There must be other factors to be considered.

It seems most portrait artists cannot adhere rigidly to a size only pricing scale. A small head and shoulders might be better than half a spacious three-quarter figure on a typical portrait price schedule. Why should it amount to a quarter the price by scale?

Can we tweak the formula?
