[Art Market] Legal issues?
Scenario: If I started doing custom paintings on tote bags, for example, and ordered the bags online to paint on them and started selling these bags, am I breaking any laws on copyright or ownership or something?
because technically the bag isnt mine,, but the painting is, and i DID buy the bag, but i didn't create it
Another scenario: If I started a commission sample/template that provides book covers/sleeves for bookworms for their favorite books, am I liable for anything? I won't be producing/printing the sleeves, its a commission service and I will have to make sure it's not official art or anything like that. Will the publishing companies come for my throat?
