Hey guys, you never, ever have to ask me for permission for personal usage of my artwork - like saving them to your computer or phone, whether just to keep, or to make an avatar out, or to set as your wallpaper, or even printing out to decorate your room - I don’t mind, it’s nice and flattering and it’s what I’m here for. Any non-profit usage of my art is fine.
I also get a lot of people asking if they can copy/imitate my art for learning purposes, like as color studies or brush studies, I don’t know. I’m okay with this too, as long as your intentions are purely educational.
Y’know, I’m just going to answer another common inquiry while I’m here. Yes, you can use my art as a tattoo design (it’s very flattering that you’d want to, please think it through though, lol. And send me a picture when you’re done!)
Really, the only thing that ISN’T okay is claiming you created my artwork when you clearly didn’t, and/or selling it for your own profit. That’s just silly.
