Can You Make 6 Figures in Painting?

You can absolutely make 6 figures in painting. While many painters start at entry-level wages, the ceiling is far higher than most people assume. Women painters can scale their earnings through:

• Specialization (e.g. fine finishing, cabinetry, murals)

• Owning a painting business (working for yourself!)

• Working in high-end markets

• Securing a Union position

Some painters hit 6 figures by combining skilled labor with smart business practices and niche branding. If you're wondering why painting is the best trade for women, read Why Painting Is the Best Trade for Women.
