A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to Art Walk Yesterday
Posted by leedman on July 25, 2011
First, let me say that I pushed myself to complete two new paintings to exhibit at Art Walk this month. It is a thrill to sign a painting, knowing that you are "sealing the deal". I was pleased with the final products, and especially pleased that my self-imposed deadline was met. I packed up my paintings for transport, gathered extra business cards, my e-newsletter sign up book and layered myself in sweaters, coats, gloves, scarves and hat (it was a very cold, windy day). Out the door I went with high expectations of meeting new people and sharing my art.

Does Facebook Own Rights to My Photos?

Q: Sharing Artwork & Photos on Facebook
I've got a friend who constantly chastises me about putting my work up on Facebook, taunting me that Mark Zuckerberg now "owns" my work. I've read people argue both for and against this being true and I still can't decide what the truth is... I do realize that facebook reserves some sort of right to use photos of us in their ads, but is there anything in the regulations that says they would be able to use or reproduce our artwork in any way?
