Welcome to themuseslibrary, my account dedicated solely to stock and artist references! Read on for essential info on how to use this account.
GENERAL GUIDELINES
Proper credit given when using my stock. Optional if you're only using it as reference. Credit me as follows:
- On Instagram - www.instagram.com/themuseslibrary
- On Facebook - www.facebook.com/themuseslibrary
- On Twitter - www.twitter.com/themuseslibrary
To notify me of your work on DeviantART leave a comment with a link to your work on the stock image which inspired it. This allows others to see how the image has been used, bringing you more publicity. If your work is exclusive and you do not want it displayed on DA, you may still Note me a link instead.
Use of my stock in pornographic art is NOT ALLOWED. However, tasteful erotic art is acceptable. If you aren't sure where the line is, see these examples as erotic art I would not mind my stock being used in. When in doubt, Note me to see if your project is acceptable.
DO NOT re-package my stock for distribution on other sites OR share my Exclusive Stock with others! I offer this stock in good faith and expect good faith in return.
COMMERCIAL USAGE
I'm currently transitioning the majority of my stock to be FREE for commercial use, unless otherwise stated in the stock's description! Some of my stock will require a commercial use fee and will be labeled as such in the image/pack's description. A lot of my gallery is still in transition, so please be patient as I make these updates to this massive gallery!
If using my stock for commercial purposes, I request that you contact me to notify me of the use. This is not required, but by letting me know what you're doing with my stock, it gives me a chance to help promote your work!
My cost for commercial use of those stocks of mine requiring commercial use is listed in the images' description. You can click Purchase to pay in points via DeviantART's premium content system. Should an image not have a Purchase link yet, Note me and we'll sort it out.
Using my stock for drawing reference is now considered derivative commercial use! This means that if you intend to make money off of the painting or drawing you're creating referencing my stock photos that do require commercial usage, you will need to purchase the commercial use rights to my stock in order to legally use it for your projects.

What is non-commercial usage?
PRINT POLICY
Anyone using my stock has permission to make prints EXCLUSIVELY WITHIN DEVIANTART'S PRINT SHOP without having to pay for the commercial rights to my stock.
However, any prints sold outside of DEVIANTART PRINTS will be considered Commercial Use and require payment of my Commercial rates for the stock you intend to use (if that stock is listed as requiring commercial use). This is because dA is special for being my gracious stock gallery host and is a special perk for those of you supporting them via the Print Shop.
(Link to this journal from your print's description if you ever have any problems with the DeviantART staff concerning stock use.)
REQUESTS
Requests: CLOSED! I am just too busy to do any beyond what I shoot for my own art projects.
Please note that I'm an extremely busy person and it will take some time for me to accomplish requests.
A list of my current requests is available here: ladydove7-stock.deviantart.com…

Feel free to note me at this account, or at AngelaSasser as I check that one more regularly than any of my other accounts. These terms are subject to change at my discretion.

COMMERCIAL USAGE




What is commercial usage?
- Any photomanipulation which is requested to be used in a brochure, book cover, magazine ad, etc. (anything which will be published by a company, small or large).
- Any stock intended to be used on behalf of creating art or graphics for a company, small or large.
- Any stock used for promoting your own personal band, self-published book, prints through another site outside of DA, etc.
- A contest in which you win a cash prize. If you win, you owe me a commercial use fee.
- Images created from my stock to be used in an online stream, video, multimedia project, etc. which will be monetized.
- Rule of thumb, if you're making money (or going to make money) off the work which you will be creating using my stock in any way, this constitutes commercial use.
What is non-commercial usage?
- Using stock for your own personal artwork that is NOT being sold to a corporation, company, or small business.
- Use within DA Prints.
- Sketching from my stock for educational purposes.
- Streams that are not monetized. If you monetize them later, this will then be considered commercial use (for those particular images that require it).

Account Revamp! Free Stock?!
Long time, no see, stock fans! I have admittedly been quiet on this account for a long while. Life just sort of...happened, as it is wont to do! I graduated college, got married, and became a pro artist. Life got busy and this account was left behind (though I'd occasionally drop in to check messages and share any spare stock from my projects). In that time, I also expanded this account to include my art marketing tips, advice, and other resources. I'm happy to say I'm finally back! After experiencing the generosity of folks like @AdorkaStock and @JookpubStock , who have been invaluable in helping me bring my paintings to life as as an illustrator, I have made the major decision to transition most of my stock references here to being free for commercial use. Read on for a few of the big changes happening at this account! What's Changing at this Account? Free Stock A large majority of my stock is going to be made completely free to use for commercial projects (with some
Coloring Book Kickstarter + Stock Feature!
It's been so quiet around this account, but I promise I am still alive! My life has been completely absorbed in the art side of things while I've been wrapping up my birthstone art project. For those who missed my prior posts about it, this project is a combination of all of my passions, folklore, fashion, and the fantastical.
I call it The Ladies of the Months!
Just this past month, I've finally finished them all! I'm excited to move forward into the self-publication phase to get this art out into the world, beginning with a coloring book I'm funding this month via Kickstarter!
But I couldn't have done it without the hard work of many
Art Biz Suppliers Master List
As a working artist, I am often asked what printers, supplies, packaging, etc. I use. I've finally started collecting a list of my favorite suppliers with reviews of those suppliers and referral links at my blog. I thought it worth sharing here, since this account has started to expand from hosting not only stock, but my other helpful resources for artists as well.
More to be added to this list in the future as I have time to review them. I hope it helps someone out! Please share the link, if you find it useful.
As for stock, I actually have a backlog to upload here, but life has been so crazy (from hospitalized relatives to moving from a
More Art Nouveau Stock COMING SOON!
Greetings, all! I'm still alive at this account! I've been more than preoccupied with IRL concerns, a 2 month long mentorship, and a big new art project I'm embarking on that I'm excited to share with you!
You might remember these Art Nouveau themed stock sets?
They were the product of the photo shoots I did for reference for these Art Nouveau paintings I was working on:
Now, I'm really excited to return to the Ladies of the Months series to complete the rest of the Ladies for the other months!
Not only am I creating a painting, but I'm creating a matching leather carved mask for each Lady! I figured why not be ambitious?

I'm sure you're aware of my thoughts and opinions but I'll go ahead and say them again XD You looked beautiful, and so very natural in the whole thing. It was major fun working with you and hanging out and if you ever have the urge to be "all tied up" again, feel free to ask. I had a total blast and I'm glad you and the others did too.
