Art commissions: 4 questions artist can expect clients to ask and they must be prepared to answer immediately. Clients will ask artists for their portfolio before they hire them for an art commission. Budget is the next crucial question that clients will inquire about. Artists will set the price for art commissions based on several differing factors, such as subject and medium, size of the piece, display, location, etc.

The client will also want to know the amount of input they will have on the art. Artists should have references ready from previous clients who commissioned art from them in order to attract new clients and provide adequate reassurance.
