I'd second between 100 and 200. Commissions in general should run higher than something you might make in your own time. I think around 120 or so is plenty reasonable for a piece of that size.

Writing an Artist's Statement? Start with These Questions What does your work look like? What are its physical properties? How does it exist in space? Where do we see it? Is your work temporal? How are you making this work? Why do you make this work? How do viewers experience your work?
Breakthrough: “Whiskey Glasses” and Other Songs He formed a temporary band called Morgan Wallen & Them Shadows with Serg Sanchez of the group Atom Smash. Sanchez introduced Wallen to executives at Panacea Records, which signed the artist in 2015 and financed an EP called Stand Alone and the single “Spin You Around.”
In 2015, Wallen's manager, Dirk Hemsath of Working Group Artist Management, sent a demo of Wallen to record executive Seth England, who had Wallen audition for Big Loud, an independent record label. They signed Wallen to the label and the publishing company, who began pairing his songs with other artists.
Morgan Wallen got his start on season six of The Voice — he competed on Adam Levine's team and made it to the playoffs round before being eliminated. His stint on the show was enough to get him a record deal with indie label Panacea Records, which helped him release his first EP, Stand Alone, in 2015.
GETTING SIGNED TO A MAJOR LABEL We're talking between 20-100k followers. Many artists end up hiring social media management to get this done so they can stay focused on the music.
If your music quality is on par with the top artists currently signed, you still have a 1 in 100 chance to be signed to a top independent record label or 1% chance.
