Copyright and Usage

May I print extra coloring pages for my friends?

Printing Extra Coloring Pages

May I print extra coloring pages for my friends?

Every OrnaMENTALs coloring page or bundle you purchase from this site includes a copyright statement along with it. Usually this is found on the cover page or in the first few pages. In most cases, I permit printing extra pages in small numbers to color with a friend or two. For example:

This PDF download is for personal use only. Please don’t share the PDF or the printed pages without permission, except to print in small numbers to color with a friend or two. If you’re hosting a coloring party you may share printed copies of these pages, but I ask that you distribute copies of the information page for your group attendees to take with them. Do not remove my branding or copyright notice.

As you can see, I usually permit making additional copies in small numbers (less than 5) with some conditions. Be sure to check each product for its specific terms of use.

I do ask that if you will be printing many copies, such as for a coloring party, that you add to the minimum price of my name your price bundles. You can also come back at a later time and contribute a donation if you feel like you got more value out of my coloring page than what you originally paid.

Can I sell OrnaMENTALs coloring pages after I have colored them?

Can I sell OrnaMENTALs coloring pages after I have colored them?

When you purchase any coloring book, it is legal to sell the colored pages under the First Sale Doctrine (explained here). As long as you aren’t copying the pages in your books, a book that you purchased is yours to do with as you please.

Digital files are another matter. Copying the coloring pages other than for the purposes of printing for yourself, and for backup, is prohibited under international copyright law. However, the terms of use statement I include with my digital coloring pages allows a bit more than that. For example:

This PDF download is for personal use only. Please don’t share the PDF or the printed pages without permission, except to print in small numbers to color with a friend or two. If you’re hosting a coloring party you may share printed copies of these pages, but I ask that you distribute copies of the information page for your group attendees to take with them. Do not remove my branding or copyright notice.

As you can see, I permit making additional copies in small numbers with some conditions.

So what about selling the colored pages when you purchase them in printable format?

This is entirely up to the creator and what they wish to permit. Each artist will have to answer this question for their own artwork. What follows only applies to OrnaMENTALs™ designs by Sue Chastain. Let’s explore some scenarios…

Scenario 1: You printed one copy of a page, colored it beautifully, and someone offers to buy it from you.

That’s great! I want you to be able to make money with your talent. Art supplies don’t grow on trees, after all. In one-off situations, you do not need my prior approval. However, I would be grateful if you gave a portion of your profit back to me as the line artist either by contributing a donation, or buying more of my products. I would also love to see and hear about what you sold!

Scenario 2: You colored a page and wish to make copies of the colored page to use on items you will sell such as greeting cards, framed prints, print-on-demand-products, tshirts, etc.

I’m sorry, but any making any number of extra copies of the colored pages for commercial use would not be permitted. It is also not permitted to upload the colored pages to another party for mass production, such as a print-on-demand site.

Scenario 3: You wish to make multiple copies of OrnaMENTALs™ line art, to color each page individually and resell the colored piece, or to use the colored piece in a handcrafted project you will sell.

This would require special licensing. Contact me to explain your usage in detail and I can make arrangements with you for extended licensing that is mutually beneficial.

Feel free to get in touch if there is another scenario your feel I have not addressed in this FAQ.

May I print extra copies of coloring pages to distribute to patrons in a healthcare facility or educational institution?

Printing Extra Copies of Coloring Pages

May I print extra copies of coloring pages I’ve purchased to distribute to patrons in a healthcare facility or educational institution?

Not yet. I absolutely support the use of coloring pages in libraries, schools, and healthcare facilities. I’m working on a way to provide approval and special licensing for this usage. If this interests you, get in touch and I’ll work with you to make it happen or make sure you are notified when I open it up to applicants.

May I upload OrnaMENTALs™ to a print-on-demand site?

May I upload OrnaMENTALs™ to a print-on-demand site?

You may only upload to a print-on-demand (POD) site for products you will be purchasing for yourself or as one-off gifts, provided the images you upload are only stored in your personal account for that service and not made available to the service provider beyond what is needed to create your personal product. You may not upload OrnaMENTALs™ to any POD site to create products for sale. This applies to OrnaMENTALs designs which have been colored as well as the uncolored line-art.

If there is a product you would like to see OrnaMENTALs on, please let me know and I will try to find a supplier!
