TATTOOS AND COPYRIGHT
Copyright And Tattoos: Who Owns Your Skin?
This article is not intended as legal advice. It is intended for only general information purposes.
“Tattooing as an artistic culture is highly derivative and once an image is out in the community it is fair game for reproduction.
We take art from all cultures and all styles and transform them into skin art.
It is impossible to make two absolutely identical tattoos, and even if the client asks for a copy they will get their artist’s version of it, based on subtle changes to fit their body and the artist’s competence.”
