Terms of Use

I am receiving a lot of questions about commercial usage of my brushes and other artwork that is available on this blog. Most of you, naturally, understand that I invest lot of work, time and effort to create and offer free brushes and other free resources on this blog.

Now, here is the deal:

ALL WORK ON GRAPHIC-ILLUSTRATIONS.COM BLOG IS PROTECTED BY COPYRIGHT AND/OR OTHER APPLICABLE LAW. ANY USE OF THE WORK OTHER THAN AS AUTHORIZED UNDER THIS LICENSE OR COPYRIGHT LAW IS PROHIBITED.

OK. So, general idea is:
All artwork here is offered for you to create your own designs with it. Naturally, you are then the owner of all artwork you derive from the artwork offered on my blog.

        1. Hi Sylvia

          Your brushes are awesome! thankyou so much for sharing them with us, I will be purchasing your swirls on payday woot :) lol
          I will of course include link to your awesome site, in anything that i create
          Many thanks again
          Kirsty

        2. Thanks guys :)
          As of April 2008 I also accept credit cards!

        3. Great stuff as usual! Do you take Paypal donations as well as proliferate exultation about your art? I would like to use some of your designs for clear acrylic stamps. We’re home-based and small potatoes, but I really have always loved your stuff and would like to do a little more than give you praise in return for your permission to use some of your work. We don’t want you totally starving… :-)

        4. Yes Karen, you can use them for papers. Link (and praise :)) from your website are always welcome!

          S*

        5. Would it be possible to use your fab brushes for making papers to resell? It is a bit hard to credit you, when it is a physical product :) I would of course link and praise your work from my website!

        6. Thanks for asking Shannoon. Well, you can do it.
          I just hope, that one day I can earn my living by my creativity… one day… :)

          S*

        7. Firstly, thankyou for creating such wonderful brushes, and sharing so many of them for free!

          I create templates for digital scrapbooking. Using a swirl for example on a template (on it’s own layer), would that be acceptable use? That’s not reselling the actual brush, but i guess if they wanted they could save the image and use it later on….is that a problem?

          I await your answer…and thanks again!
          Shannon

        8. Sure Fufu, why not? :)
          S*

        9. I own an online tshirt company, and am interested in knowing if I could use some of your brushes in my designs? I am more than happy to excessively credit and praise :)
