From 1999-2018 I use to work full time in the Art and Media Indusrty.
So if I did this then why do very few people know about me or my work?
When you are asked do you about your eamoyment status the Govement will set what they call a criteria for what they class diffrent types of employement being and also your rights.

Now one of the area that I use to work in was teaching, Art and Media.
So one of the questions a lot of students would ask me or would be asked was, "Who will you sell your art work?"
So I looked into ways to help and to surport my students into doing this.
One of the ways that a lot of work is sold today is degitial and theirfore on line.
BUt when looking at selling your art work their are a lot of pros and cons once you post an image on social media whether it is to promote a one off piece of art work or something that can be mass-produced.
So I looked into Redbubble for my students and have encluded the link below.

Before looking at selling or buying form Redbubble I would advise that you look at the whole site incliding their terms and contitions when it come to copy right law.
What is Coppy Right?
Copyright law is a legal framework that grants exclusive rights to creators of original works, allowing them to control the reproduction, distribution, and derivative use of their creations. In the United States, copyright law aims to promote art and culture by providing authors the rights to make and sell copies of their works, create derivative works, and publicly perform or display their works. Essentially, copyright protects the intellectual property of creators, ensuring they can benefit from their work.

If you are able to sell your art work this way, weldone; I use Redbubble like most online art selling sights to help promote myslef and to keep my art work porfoilio up to date and accessable to people all over the world.
I would also like to say that over the eatrs year I have had people steal my work and sell it pretending it is theirs. Is is really upsetting due to them getting paid and not me.
So when you work in any industry it is important to know what your rights are and how to protect yourself as much as you can.
