Laladrawsโ€™ Advice for Artists Setting Their Commission: Know Your Worth and Donโ€™t Sell Yourself Short.

โ€œLike sa traditional gigs din, donโ€™t sell yourself short. Personally, Iโ€™ll go for percentages rather than fixed amount. And itโ€™s also important that you know your worth and the value youโ€™re bringing into the project.โ€

NFT FAQ: How Artist Must Set Their Commission by Laladraws of Planktoons NFT

This is the statement of Laladraws, Lead Artist and Co-Founder of Planktoons when asked about her advice for artists in setting the price of their commission or art works during the BitPinas Webcast 11 โ€“ (Laladraws) Planktoons NFT and Bored Punks of Society last February 24, 2022.

Clarifying that in her case, she was more into partnership negotiations than contracts, Laladraws emphasized that it is important to know the proper pricing of an artwork.

โ€œI donโ€™t have exact ano eh, kasi medyo malawak po siya, case-to-case (basis) po siya. Pero ayun po, know your worth lang po talaga and donโ€™t sell yourself short, kasi ano eh, ang daming nae-exploit eh, nakakalungkot,โ€ Laladraws concluded.

(I do not have an exact term, for the topic is too broad, and it is a case-to-case basis. But, you really have to know your worth and not sell yourself short, because, sad to say, there are artists who are exploited.)

On the same webcast, Laladraws insisted that NFTs can only hurt small-time artists only if they will allow themselves to be exploited.

She also stressed that knowing your worth as an artist and knowing the value of your art will help an artist be able to avoid exploitation.

About three weeks ago, AJ Dimarucot of First Mint Fund, during the BitPinas Webcast 09, highlighted that NFTs do not hurt small-time artists, but actually help them. Read more about his statement here.
