Comissioning work from artists?, by Moron on Jun 17, 2008 21:37:29 GMT 1, I have started looking at comissioning work from certain artists.
Does commisioned pieces generally cost more than the prints that are already released by an artist?
Any examples and prices would be appreciated...

Yes, because a print is an edition of a fixed number, whereas a commission would almost certainly be an original - so it would naturally cost more.
