Blog / 2014 / Say What You Mean with Regards to Image Use

I describe one of the reasons why I began questioning copyright in this vlog about a ruined friendship. For more about Creative Commons licensing, check out this video. My book about uncopyrighting is here.
The friend who insisted I be more legal in how I talk about the permitted uses of my images is Richard Stallman of the Free Software Foundation. We met at TEDxGeneva and his talk from that event is here.

I created a longer talk about freeing your art and yourself from copyright that’s illustrated prettily with the butterfly story.

I painted Richard’s portrait and created my first ever GIF to show the making of that piece!
Art is the love of other humans made tangible across space and time. When a person can’t get a hug from a friend, art is there to make them feel seen and understood. Please share my work with your favorite people!
Maybe this post made you think of something you want to tell me? I’d love to hear from you.
