    Orphan Works and Artists Copyright

    stock artists alliance.jpgThis press release just showed up in my email about the Orphan Works copyright bill that is working its way thru the system.

    What does this have to do with the fine arts? Well, imagine you are walking through a store and see a product with your art work on it. No one told you about it. No one contacted you to get permission, offer you some $$ or other compensation. How would you feel?
