Art licensing and this guide are for you if:
You are a 2D visual artist (painter, digital artist, illustrator, more)
Many styles of art and mediums are licensable - as long as it is your original work.
You want to see your art produced onto physical products and sold in retail stores
All without having to pay for the manufacturing costs! You instead get a percentage (royalties) of sales or a flat fee.
You understand that art licensing can be a long but fulfilling process (overnight success is not the norm!)
But you're also excited to DO THIS!
Here's What's Inside...

About Juliet Meeks
Hi! I'm Juliet, and I've been licensing my artwork since 2015. I've worked with brands like Anthropologie, Uncommon Goods, Birchbox, and more (over 60 licensees and counting!). My artwork is on products in stores like Barnes & Noble, Walmart, Staples, World Market, Home Goods, T.J. Maxx, Marshalls, and more. I want to teach you how you can get YOUR artwork on products and in stores through art licensing. As a self-taught artist who Googled my way through the beginning, I've learned a ton and made some mistakes, but I've also seen my own dreams come true. After years on my own, I recently partnered with an art agent and can share my experience from both sides. Let's get started - I'll see you on the inside! Juliet
