Licensing Caveats - incorporating the work of others

Adam Lister - Pixelated Art

Van Gogh self-portrait, Art History 101 series by Adam Lister. (Original Painting by Vincent van Gogh, 1889). *note attribution to original work.

Art History Pixelated : New Watercolour Paintings by Adam Lister (Yatzer) "Adam Lister studied at New York’s School of Visual Arts where he graduated in 2003. Through his work, he found a way to explore his love for 8-bit graphics by creating watercolours with pixel-like shapes. Previously, he explored figures from popular culture with his digital stylings, representing characters from the television and movie world. These include portraits of ‘Star Wars’ characters like Yoda and Princess Leia, and scenes from ‘The Godfather’. Now Lister has moved towards the topic of art history, which is something he holds a deep passion and respect for."
