I got it from wallhaven, images are public domain. With public domain images you're free to use them in any way.

Er, just because an arbitrary web site spuriously declares it to be public domain doesn't make it so, they have no right to make that assignment.

The image owner is Tokyo Fashion, the image rights are clearly stated on the flickr page: “All rights reserved”.

That's not public domain by any stretch of the imagination.

Not necessarily.... Check the precedent here https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cariou_v._Prince
If an artists changes another artists work significantly, or in a transformative manner, the copyrights change over too. So what you add to an existing work must comment on the original or change its appearance significantly.
OP would most likely lose this argument, but as long as he is t selling it he might be safe. The original copyright holders might not care, at worst would send a cease and desist.
Richard Prince pretty much obliterates the original material in his (hugely overrated) artworks.

Nice bitcoin artwork, you should setup a small gallery portfolio with a bitcoin donation so they could download your artwork at a set resolution you feel good with and make some satoshis of those who donate.

I started recently and made a limited amount of around 2-3 wallpapers. I will make dark theme once i set up a website available for download, cheers.

No problem, I'm not sure that if you will be the first one to do this but is a pretty good shot to get a good amount of exposure if you land a good domain and with it you could offer other digital artist to show their work on your website for bitcoin sales or donations you could make it pretty big, maybe writing an investor pitch could get you some funding if you need a good amount of fund to develop something unique.

The hair covering the one eye in your avatar made me suspicious, are you friends with WoodCollector by chance?

No i'm friends with the illuminatie, hence the covering of one eye.

No. Not the Illuminati!
Nice art btw.

Thanks for drawing my attention to that, I wasn't aware the appeal had succeeded. Not that it negates the point I made. Prince was fully aware of the image rights whereas OP was labouring under a profound misapprehension that the work was in the public domain and could be freely adapted and re-used.

OP would most likely lose this argument, but as long as he is t selling it he might be safe. The original copyright holders might not care, at worst would send a cease and desist.

I agree but s'not so much the current instance, more a case of helping someone avoid easily-avoidable trouble in the future. I would imagine Tokyo Fashion would've responded positively if the OP had sought permission and a “by kind permission” would lend just a bit more weight to the work.

The web-served versions of our own works are freely available for non-commercial re-use. An example:



They're available as limited-edition prints, we're looking at using the blockchain for provenance.

Did you paint that little yellow word on the left? Or did you just find this?

I painted the bitcoin part.

what do you mean about you painted the bitcoin part.

with photoshop or maya you can do amazing things, but i think he used something less heavy, not paint for sure  , but maybe it drew them in the good old way? would be amazing

if he can do the same on famous paintings, it would be awesome

seems legit... also the bitcoin word in the first post was really really realistic and cool

did you ask that because the original picture doesnt have that word? the person clearly stated that it was photoshoped

[amiryaqot]

BTCitcoin word seems awesome and that is nice piece of artwork, the color combination looking eye catching, that is interesting idea to put bitcoin word on famous paintings to get attention from new people towards this innovation.
