LICENSING AND LOGO USE

We thank everyone who has kindly asked permission to use the Tree of Life for their commercial and private purposes, and we appreciate the respect and understanding many of you have given. We rarely enter into licensing options with other companies, and we NEVER grant permission to use the Tree of Life for a company Logo, or to represent an organisation other than our own, since it is our own trademark and Logo for Keltic Designs.

NO commercial reproductions without valid license from Keltic Designs Inc. Please note - we do NOT license our Tree of Life design for company LOGO since it is our own personal trademarked company logo.

We understand and appreciate the many requests we recieve to use Jen's Tree of Life as a Logo, or to represent a non-profit organisation. It is not easy for us to turn down the requests we receive from creative and positive businesses and non-profits. However, it would be impossible for us to protect our design from the public domain without our strict policy in place, and we have been consistent in actively restricting use of the design to Keltic Designs as our company symbol since it was created in 1990.
Thank you for helping us maintain the special protection we reserve for this design.

PUBLISHING & PERSONAL ONE-TIME USE

Credit must ALWAYS be given next to or near the image. Please contact info@kelticdesigns.com

However, we love when we are sent pictures of your tattoos, and enjoy your appreciation when you let us know you have done one with Jen's work.

COPYRIGHT STATEMENT

Thanks to Stephen Walker - Celtic artist - for this following statement

Celtic designs have an ancient heritage. However, the work shown here is not an imitation of historical Celtic Art but new and original creations which are authentic continuations of that artistic heritage. Because Celtic Art often is used to make a link to the distant past it is often mistakenly thought that genuine designs can only be copied from antiquity.

This is unfortunate because artistic integrity demands that the designer create a new manifestation of the art, unique to present times. As a living art form, Celtic Art can only be
sustained by pursuing the goal of mastery of the creative process that ultimately results in new and imaginative work.

It is commonly and wrongly supposed that all Celtic designs are ancient and therefore free from copyright restrictions. The truth is that new, traditionally correct designs often look as if they could be very old, but they are none-the-less intellectual property of the artist. Use of copyright designs by anyone other than the artist requires permission in the case of personal use or a licensing agreement in the case of commercial use. All rights reserved.

COPYRIGHT & TRADEMARK INFO
