Howdy!

Since I was talking about licensing images yesterday, I figured it would dovetail nicely with these three images…

Last week I was walking along Greene Avenue when I saw these magnificent paintings in the window of the Galerie de Bellefeuille. While I don’t think there is a patent on spraying diamond dust on silkscreen prints, I would bet dollars to doughnuts that Russell Young is not paying any royalties to the Michael Ochs Archives or Getty Images for his use of their photograph. (Which if I did the drop down boxes properly would cost somewhere around $600)

And while I’m not entirely certain (after all I did take a crappy and blurry picture) but it certainly does look like a painting of Tintin, and again I would bet dollars to doughnuts (Tim Horton’s even!) that someone forgot to cut a check to Paramount Pictures for their royalties…
