As a creative business owner, I have several different revenue streams to keep my business, Gingiber, going and growing. Art Licensing is very appealing to artists and illustrators because companies essentially “rent” your artwork and put it on their products. I started licensing my art 10 years ago, and I love finding the right licensing partners to work with. You can license illustrations, surface patterns, hand lettered pieces, fine art.... there are so many possibilities.
