I am receiving a lot of questions about commercial usage of my brushes and other artwork that is available on this blog. Most of you, naturally, understand that I invest lot of work, time and effort to create and offer free brushes and other free resources on this blog.

Now, here is the deal:

ALL WORK ON GRAPHIC-ILLUSTRATIONS.COM BLOG IS PROTECTED BY COPYRIGHT AND/OR OTHER APPLICABLE LAW. ANY USE OF THE WORK OTHER THAN AS AUTHORIZED UNDER THIS LICENSE OR COPYRIGHT LAW IS PROHIBITED.

OK. So, general idea is:
All artwork here is offered for you to create your own designs with it. Naturally, you are then the owner of all artwork you derive from the artwork offered on my blog.

Here is more details:
