Business and Legal Forms for Illustrators (Business and Legal Forms Series)

The legal world can be a daunting place especially to someone not versed in legalese. The books by Tad Crawford distill this information into a very accessible text that helps explain all the important legal issues artists should be aware of. Everything you need to know for contracts, copyright, taxes, etc. is covered here. The book does a great job explaining what your rights are, which is especially important in this digital age where artistic theft is easy and rampant. The law is always changing, too, so it's great that they keep updating these books. One nice thing is the book has templates for standard contracts and invoices and such. Highly recommended.

Good resource for someone just starting out and isn't really familiar with visual art contracts. I also like that I can add my logo and edit the forms to meet my needs

"Business and Legal Forms for Illustrators" is an excellent source of artist agreement forms it even comes with a CD so you can easily print out the forms that you need when you need them. I had a pending art sale that required a different legal form from what I had previously been familiar with this book offers superb samples that can be used by an artist. Easy to understand written in plain English. This book is a wise investment that could save any artist a bunch of headaches and misunderstandings. I highly recommend this book.

this is super informative. glad i bought it.

Great resource. Wish it had the CD.
