Thanks for your kind comments!
I should perhaps also clarify something about my current pricing structure that may not be apparent on my website. I charge 30% extra for backgrounds that are pretty much anything other than a flat wall (which I call "a studio background"). I tend to do a lot of complex backgrounds because I also enjoy depicting things other than just the people in the portraits, and it makes the painting more personal to the client. I find these backgrounds take almost as much time as the figures. (The staircase that the teens are standing on drove me insane!)
So a composition like the one of the two kids on the chair reading works out to be just over $8,000 for a 30x40 painting. (I don't charge by size but that's what paintings with two kids in a three quarter pose often works out to be.)
The one of the boy in the goofy shirt sitting on the brick steps would end up being $6,500 based on that same formula.
