I provide this disclaimer to protect me as well as others whose images I may utilize in my art pages.

Original Photo Manipulation And AI Artwork

Photo Manipulation Artworks are created completely by me with various stock images and images I create myself.  They are constructed via my own imagination.

AI artworks are created with various AI art applications largely by the input of my prompts.

I respect both as viable forms of artwork.

Please note this exception:  

As a recent student of Sabastian Michaels Photoshop Artistry class, I maintain a Commercial use license from the following designers whose graphics I utlilize for some of my artwork:

I hold a Print On Demand license to use the digital kits and images of Itkupilli for my POD merchandise and art pieces.

I hold a license from Foxy Squirrel that states specifically:  ARTISTIC USE LICENSE Artists and photographers in courses by Sebastian Michaels have artistic rights to use these graphics to create or enhance projects they may later sell using for promotional purposes.  This license does not allow you to sell the items as is.

I hold a Lifetime Commercial License from Junkin Punkin to resell any of her CU packs as is, and to implement her images into any of my artwork for commercial use.

I have been given explicit permission from RJ to use any of her poser images inside my artwork for commercial use.

I hold commercial use license for numerous illustrations and images purchased via Creative Fabrica.  

I also hold a commercial license from numerous art packs created purchased via Design Cuts.

I use a great amount of unrestricted and CU okay stock from various stock sites and image sites across the internet and use their images in good faith that each one is being offered with full legalities intact for me to use them on a Commercial Use basis.

I will try to update the license area when need be.  


ARTWORK CREATED VIA VARIOUS TUTORIALS (PSP, TAGGER, AND OTHERWISE), AND ART JOURNAL PAGES, SCRAPBOOK PAGES

IMAGES USED INSIDE MY ARTWORK

For a while I have been attempting to put credits for every single image inside my art journal and scrapbook layouts.  However, it's becoming a tedious so I probably won't continue to do that, it requires way too much work and organization.

Most individual elements used inside my collage PSP artwork are not my own.  Individual png images and other images come from various places across the internet:  scrapbook shops, individual persons' with private blogs who offer clear cut png's, groups and forums that offer images, as well as clipart and stock sites.  

Images used inside my artworks are used with demostration of 'FAIR RIGHTS' usage...images are cut, shared and used inside tutorial images for purposes of education only in learning PSP programs for the creation of Personal Use art images.  

I DO NOT claim copyrights to any images used inside my artworks.  They are used with lessons for PSP and created for fun and for my private use only.  Copyrights of any and all images always belong to the true and original creators.  

NO flattened artwork images here are to be shared, printed, sold or otherwise used for any commercial purposes.

Signature tagger artwork usually is created with art dolls and character illustrations that are purchased directly from artists who create them.  Artists create and tube these images and sell them for use inside PERSONAL USE tags and art pages with the requirement that a copyright be given (on the image you create) so that they get copyright credit for their illustrations.  So, that is why tagger artwork contains a copyright symbol and credit! 


FAIR USE AND DMCA COPYRIGHT DISCLAIMER

Because I use tutorials and images created and written by various other people/places across the net and because I do not always know the true origin from which many of these images come from, I am providing a complete copyright disclaimer and 'fair use rights' disclaimer.  Please read this disclaimer in full:  Some elements, images and tubes used inside my artworks are used primarily for learning and educational purposes.  

Under section 107 of the Copyright Act of 1976 allowance is made for 'fair use' for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, TEACHING, EDUCATION, and research.  Fair use is a use permitted by copyright statute that may otherwise be infringing.  Fair use is a doctrine in the United States copyright law that allows for limited use of copyright material without requiring permission from the rights holder.  It allows for legal, non-licensed incorporation of copyright material in another persons' work.  

This website may contain copyright material which may not have been specifically authorized by the copyright holder.  These images were made available as download png and tube images used primarily for Paintshop Pro lessons for learning and education of how to use Paintshop Pro program only.  And artworks created with images are for display on this blog of my learning of PSP program only.  They may not be used, redistributed, saved, sold, or otherwise.  The materials contained and displayed on this website are for learning purposes and educational purposes only and are shared for the public good for those interested in learning to create image and artwork with PSP. 

 I DO NOT claim ownership, or legal copyright of ANY element, image, art doll, png tube, art doll, poser, scrap kit, or tutorial used to create ANY of the artwork on this blog!


And, I will state again, please DO NOT take images from my blog to repost elsewhere, claim as your own, cut up and use in your own artwork, print, or try to sell them.
