I just want to know if you need to have the copyrights for the maps that u use in order to create or just photocopying \scanning those maps is enough. Thanks and keep going to inspiring us through your art !

I took the photo of the Gold Medal Flour sign myself and it is a recognizable landmark so no copyright issues there. All the other brand images are vintage iterations of themselves, mostly over 50-60 years old and clipped from magazines, so that's not an issue either. You mostly have to be careful of using brand names if your image is promoting something, like if this were a painting that would be a promotional item for an unaffiliated company, however it's just a decorative piece for the office of a Minneapolis based company.Mae Chevrettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01789275008355482139noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2969001226305246.post-20769349688798629582014-12-12T12:52:48.024-05:002014-12-12T12:52:48.024-05:00(More wondering about brand names, like the flour)...(More wondering about brand names, like the flour) Stacey Knouff Smithnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2969001226305246.post-35548012637304616242014-12-12T12:51:09.358-05:002014-12-12T12:51:09.358-05:00Do you sell these pieces?

I have often stayed away from collage because of names or images of recognizable people or brands. I just wondered how that works. I have a setup almost identical to yours..ikea cart and table bases, and a double masted easel (it's fabulous, isn't it?)

This commission is incredible, and the balance of trust your client has with you and the trust you have with yourself to create their vision is amazing. One of the things I love most about your work is that I look at it and say, "How did she DO that?!" Thank you for being such a continuing inspiration.

I love hearing about an artist's approach to their work and since Minnesota is home, I'm sitting here studying every tiny detail and loving it all. Places near and dear to my heart. Your dedication to bringing out the very best in a painting with hours upon hours of your own photography and hours spent finding relevant ephemera shows in every piece you create.
