This tool helps you calculate the dimensions and costs for your art projects easily and accurately.
Art Calculator
This calculator helps you estimate the price of your artwork based on its dimensions and medium. Here is how it works:
How to Use
- Enter the width and height of your artwork in centimeters.
- Select the medium of your artwork from the dropdown list.
- Click the ‘Calculate’ button to get the estimation.
How It Calculates
The calculator first multiplies the width and height to get the area in square centimeters. It then determines the base price per square centimeter based on the selected medium. Finally, it calculates the total price by multiplying the base price per square centimeter by the area.
Limitations
- The calculator assumes a fixed base price for each medium, which might not reflect market variances.
- The price estimation is basic and does not include additional factors like complexity, framing, or special finishes.
