Licensing enquiry form
Licensing, in brief terms
I license my artwork — I never sell it. I keep full copyright and ownership of every design at all times.
Through a licence, I grant your company the right to use a specific design, on a specific product, for an agreed time and place, in return for a flat fee or royalties. Licences can be non-exclusive (the design can be used by more than one company) or exclusive (you're the only company using it within an agreed scope). I don't offer buyouts of any kind.
For full details on how licensing works, copyright, and how we'll work together, see my Art Licensing page →
Copyright
As the designer, I retain all copyright and ownership of the artwork and all derivative works at all times. All artwork is the sole property of Kirsten Katz and is held under copyright.
The images, artwork, and contents of this website may not be copied, collected, or used for personal or professional gain without written permission from Kirsten Katz. All images of artwork, sold or otherwise, are retained by Kirsten Katz.
Who actually owns the painting?
I retain all rights to all artwork I create. This includes the rights to the image of sold & commissioned original paintings. I retain the right to make reproductions of any and all artwork I create.
The Collector or buyer may not reproduce the artwork in any way without written permission.
When you purchase an original painting, you own that physical artwork — but copyright always remains with me. The rights to reproduce, license, or make prints of the artwork are never included in a sale and are not available for purchase. This protects the value of your original and the integrity of my work.
