Having a family of lawyers I wanted to stay as far from the field as possible. Hence being an artist. now, depending on what I depict in a image that I create, physical traditional media or digitally, I'm subjected to legal issues etc. Recently I was reading an article where someone went and painted a picture in oil of a house. the owners of the house had signs up saying no paintings or pictures, because they used the images and photos for finantual gain and to keep up the lighthouse. so a legal battle insued. It hadn't be resolved at the writing of the article, I never found out what happened. Still scary. can't even paint a picture anymore these days with out a lawyer. I'm going back under the covers now.
