- The page describes a ten-work cap, an 85% artist share at auction, and a 5% payment to the artist on later sales.
Field notes
The proposed training material includes finished works, sketches, studio footage, and interviews in which the artist discusses individual works. The artist is said to set restrictions on subject matter and use, with advertising and politics given as examples of uses they may refuse. The page also describes a Patron auction and resale payments, but its named artist example is explicitly fictional.
