Hi guys, I’m returning to the world of art after some time away. I really want to start making street pop art like the ones with an abstract background, words written in graffiti, flyers stuck on, with images of a character/person from pop culture (Mickey Mouse, Biggie Smalls, Marylin Monroe etc.) but I’ve heard that you need a license to actually use a lot of these images due to them being protected by copyright. Could anybody advise me on how to go about this as I really don’t have any idea, depending on how good my pieces end up being in the future I would like to start selling my work but I’m just not sure how using copyrighted characters/images work when it comes to making art with them? I’m from the UK by the way so if someone could show me some companies that deal with this stuff that would be great. Thanks guys👍🏻

ASP 02 S9 TransArtSpots is a non-profit and 100% community-driven project. We run it because we love to discover art and share it with others. The app does not contain any ads and we do not get money from this project at all. That's why we ask for your help! 

Wanna help spread the word about the App?

It would be great if you can tell your friends about ArtSpots, or if you run a website or blog, share the news and post a page. If you are active on social media, please also spread the word among your friends - art needs a space without commerce and it should be us, who count, not money and some shareholders. Thank you!

If you need pictures and stuff, here is the download to a media package, containing screens of the app, the image teaser and a short description you can freely use.

See you in ArtSpots.
