Ever seen one of your creations show up somewhere without attribution, perhaps with your copyright blanked out? The new law being considered in the US makes it a lot easier for someone to steal your work and claim they didn't know it was copyrighted and use it for their own.

[link]===================================
Mostly I try to create art or something like that when I make photographs. To sell art, though, I guess I need to learn a foreign language, the patter used by gallery directors and such. Apparently I can't just say I got what I wanted to get and I like how it turned out, I have to explain it in terms of some kind of art movement...
I am sometimes available to do portraits, cover events, or do portfolio work of people or animals on location in the Jefferson City and Columbia Missouri area.

THIS IS A PERSONAL MESSAGE FROM HER SOUL:
I believe in all of artists who support me by watching my work.
My gallery is extensive and conceptual.
For a person to take interest in my style of art, it requires impressive intelligence and the ability to view "art" through the mind of it's creator.
Every time I see a new watcher/supporter on my messages, I always investigate them. I may not respond or comment, but I do follow. I have not been let down by any single person on my list:
[link]
truly I have an amazing group of thinkers on my page/side. It humbles me to know my simple display of art is appreciated because it is the people who support me that inspire me to keep pressing forward with projects.
MY MOST IMPORTANT PIECE OF ART TO DATE
I am hoping *with my fingers crossed* that those who have taken the time to fumble through my vast gallery would grant me one favor:
pretty pretty please:
VIEW MY LATEST PIECE AND LET ME KNOW YOUR THOUGHTS ON IT AS WELL AS YOUR VIEWS OF THE CONCEPT.
it would mean the world to me and all of the people who put countless hours into the prep of it.
IN ADDITION TO A SIMPLE CLICK, FULL VIEW, SCROLL, READ AND POSTED COMMENT.
I ASK THAT YOU VIEW THE JOURNAL POSTED FOR MY co-op, ( i am the creator of a true artist's co-op with many members, it is a dream of an entire city and is set in the motion of expanding internationally )
this is a simple favor to ask because i do the same for everyone who requests this of me, knowing that I have little time to even click to view. Supporting artists is what deviantART is about. Art is nothing without opinions on it... good, bad, or indifferent.
CLICK THE LINKS BELOW TO HELP SUPPORT AND BUILD A TRUE ART COMMUNITY, NOT ON THE NET BUT IN TANGIBLE FLESH AND TEARS FROM THE STRUGGLE OF TRYING TO STAY STRONG ENOUGH TO EXPRESS YOURSELF AFTER REJECTIONS, INSULTS, AND SHARP TONGUED OPPOSERS
THE LINKS *crosses fingers that you will take time to read*
[link] < the piece
[link] < the journal
[link] < my main page
through the stars i will bless all those who care about art, artists, and dreams. I will grant my true supporters any wish they chose. Karma is a good thing.
i truly thank all the people who take the time, as it does humble me to no end.
