Copy right?
I can remember studying art at Baker University. It was the era of angst for many people. Too bad, I might have a better time now! I can picture myself strolling through campus like I was the Big man. Everyone did at that time. Had I realized what was ahead of me I would have had more fun.
The most essential lesson my instructors taught was on ownership. I own a house. I own a car. And any image I compose I own. Wether it is a painting, drawing or photograph. That is my entitlement as an artist. So if you want a copy you pay me for it.
As an artist I am not attached to this copyright though. I love taking photographs but I am part of the new generation of photographers who shares images everywhere. I want to make a name for myself not bankrupt my subjects. My goal in life has always been to help spread joy and cheer. If I wanted to roll in money I would have chosen careers worth more. Instead I went into rewarding jobs like photography, painting and teaching elementary students.
From now on I am going to be adding more prevalent logos to my work so that the word can be spread out better. I realized this was one thing I should do to spread my word out more! Look for logos on all future work this way people will remember the name.
