Licensing
My work is available for licensing. Whether you're creating products, building spaces, or developing a line of goods, we can explore how to collaborate.
Orientation — what this is
I've spent years developing a distinctive approach to color, composition, and craft. Those skills and designs don't have to live only in my studio. Businesses, makers, and designers have licensed my work for product lines, interior installations, and creative projects that benefit from the particular eye I bring.
Licensing is straightforward: you get permission to use a design or style in a specified way, and I help you do it right. This protects both of us. You get to use work that has already proven itself, and I ensure my designs are used in contexts that honor the intention behind them. It's a real collaboration, not a transaction.
Good licensing amplifies the reach of good work. When you collaborate with a designer or artist, you're borrowing years of accumulated knowledge about what works and what doesn't.
If you're interested in licensing my designs, colors, or approach for a product line, a commissioned installation, or another creative context, let's talk. Each project is unique, and the terms reflect what you're actually doing.
The detail
Worth knowing
Anyone paid to disturb painted surfaces in a home built before 1978 has to be certified in lead-safe work practices. The rule is worth a read before you hire for an older New Hampshire house. More at the US EPA's Renovation, Repair and Painting Program page.
The reference table
Product line licensing
Your company manufactures or creates products—textiles, wallpaper, home goods, art prints. You want a design that carries integrity and distinctive character. We work out terms for how your line can carry my aesthetic.
Commercial installation
You're designing a retail space, restaurant, hotel, or office. You want walls or finishes that reflect a particular philosophy about craft and color. We create a custom agreement for that specific installation.
Educational use
Schools, workshops, and training programs sometimes want permission to teach techniques or case studies based on my work. We can structure that as a licensing agreement that serves educational goals.
Commissioned adaptations
You might want me to adapt an existing design for your project, or to create something new within a licensed relationship. That's a more involved collaboration, and the terms reflect the scope of the work.
