Uncomfortable Conversations around Social Media and Intellectual Property for Artists

Show Up or Shut Up with Wendy Solganik

Are you an artist and art instructor who wonders if it’s okay for you to take other artists’ courses? Or if it’s okay for you to teach something that was inspired by another artist’s work or what you learned from them in a class you took? Is it okay to tag another artist while also promoting your own thing? In this episode, Sarah Gardner and I discuss a plethora social media etiquette and intellectual property questions. We are showing up here to have an open conversation about many sticky topics. I’m definitely not going to say that we have the answers, only our thoughts and experiences to share. Sarah is a Mixed Media Artist, art instructor, practicing attorney and soon to be published author of a book on mail art called “Share Your Joy: Inspired Mixed Media Mail Art.” You can find Sarah at her website, https://www.juicy-s.net, and on Instagram @juicy.s.art.
