The original and its copies
If you buy an original from me, you will receive a certificate of authenticity. It confirms that your work is unique and belongs to AuroraGen (formerly Art by LiBe).
Certificate of authenticity
With your artwork (from a size of 50 cm) you will receive a combination of certificate and hologram, which guarantees that each certificate of authenticity only refers to a specific artwork.
What you are allowed to do
You are very welcome to photograph or film your artwork and use the recordings privately, for example:
-
Post on Instagram / Facebook / Pinterest
-
Stories or reels from your home
-
private website (without sales / without advertising for products)
If you mention me, I’ll be happy: AuroraGen (or via link to the Instagram profile: Auroragen_art). That’s nice and helps – but it’s not a must.
What is not allowed
Reproduction for commercial purposes is not permitted – whether in whole or in part. This includes, for example
-
Sell or give away prints/posters/canvas copies
-
Use on products (T-shirts, covers, packaging, advertising)
-
Use as a motif for commercial websites/advertisements
-
Forwarding to image databases/stock platforms
That would violate copyright law.
What I can show with the work
As long as it is not a commissioned work, I may use the work for my own communication – e.g. in the art catalog, on my website and in social media. I may also have limited edition art prints made of it for sale.
If you want a copy, a print or a license
Sometimes the desire for a copy is completely understandable – e.g. for a second home, an office or as a gift.
If you would like a print, an art print or a license, just write to me. We’ll clarify the format, material, edition and intended use.
FAQ
May I use a photo of the work as a profile picture or header?
Private yes. However, if it is in a clearly commercial context (e.g. company website/advertising), please ask beforehand.
May I photograph the work and have it printed as a poster – just for myself?
Please do not do this without prior agreement. Even “just for me” is a duplication. If you would like a print, we will find a clean solution.
What is different about commissioned work?
Depending on the agreement, special rules often apply to commissioned work (e.g. on publication/privacy). We will clarify this individually.
