Alex,

For work I put into shows where I must put a price on, I usually put the amount I would charge to commission a similar portrait. I do that because I consider the piece more as advertising than a painting someone would buy. I want a potential customer to know about how much it would cost if they did commission such a portrait. Hope that helps.
