HOW IT WORKS
1. Download the files from your Etsy purchase page right after checkout.
2. Open the .xlsx in Excel, or upload it to Google Drive and open with Google Sheets. No macros, nothing to install.
3. Start on the "Start here" tab, then type in the yellow cells. Grey cells are formulas and recalculate for you. The workbook comes in two copies: an Example with sample entries marked "Sample — delete" so you can see how it works, and a blank copy for you.

WHO IT IS FOR
Artists and illustrators who take commissions (portraits, pet portraits, murals, book covers, wedding paintings) and want prices that cover their time, fees and taxes, plus clean records of deposits, balances and 1099s.

DETAILS
2026 figures with sources in the workbook: 1099-NEC threshold $2,000 for 2026 payments (IRS Instructions for Forms 1099-MISC and 1099-NEC, 12/2026), SE tax 15.3% on 92.35%. Two copies: Example (a sample illustrator, entries marked "Sample — delete") and blank.

Important: the tax set-aside is a savings estimate, not your tax bill. Sales tax on commissions depends on your state and what you deliver. The contract checklist is not legal advice: see an attorney for contracts.

Last reviewed Oct. 25, 2026. Uses 2026 IRS figures with sources listed in the workbook.
