LICENSED CHARACTER ART

LICENSED ART

As a licensed character artist, I work with lots of big companies like Nickelodeon, Disney, and Cartoon Network to bring their characters to the publishing world. But how do these characters jump from the screen to your bookshelf? That's the magic of licensed art!

 

Companies like these hire highly specialized artists like me who are experts in publishing to illustrate for them. From there the stories can continue. I do illustration for all kinds of products including children's books, toys, and even games! 

WHAT IS LICENSED ILLUSTRATION?

Licensed art refers to artwork that an artist (licensor) gives permission for another party (licensee) to reproduce on various products. Licensors are very particular about who they hire in order to maintain the integrity of their creations. Unlike fan art or unapproved art, licensed artists must go through a rigorous approval process in order to work with licensors. The more popular the property the more competitive the approval process.
