My photos as a reference......

Journal Entry: Sun Jun 24, 2012, 2:06 AM
I receive many request for using my photos as a reference for drawings,  paintings, tattoos etc.
Usually it's fine with me and I've enjoyed some wonderful creations based on my photography.
I thought it might be a nice idea to feature some of these artworks in my journal or blog.

The rules according to reference use can be found in my signature, but since I get asked so often here they are again:

♥ Yes, You can use my photos as a reference  for drawings/paintings etc.
♥ For commercial use, please send me a note
♥ My photos aren't stock, so photo manipulations of my work are not allowed.
♥ Proper credits (link back to the original) are appreciated
♥ And I'd love to see the result, so please let me know (through a note)when your artwork is finished.












What I like best about these works is the creativity that's put into it, which adds a lot.
This way the painting is often more beautiful than the reference! :D

Met verwondering heb ik naar je foto's gekeken. Wat een mooie platen!
En wat ben ik blij om te lezen dat je je foto's beschikbaar stelt voor kunst.
Nu komt alleen de moeilijke taak om te kiezen met welke ik zou willen beginnen...

I've been wanting to use one of your fox photos as a reference... The issue is deciding which one! XD I love your work, simply beautiful!
