An art commercial use agreement gives a client permission to use work created by an artist. It clarifies key aspects, such as the scope of work, payment terms, and rights to the work. This ensures clarity and prevents future disputes between parties.

ContractsCounsel, an online legal network, provides an art commercial use agreement template that’s drafted by a professional, vetted lawyer on the platform.

In this article, we explore what this art commercial use agreement template contains, how to fill it out so that it’s specific to your working relationship, and why it’s beneficial to purchase it from ContractsCounsel.

What Does an Art Commercial Use Agreement Template Contain?

This template contains comprehensive, essential terms that are important to specify, protecting the artist against unauthorized usage. Some clauses include:

Scope of Work

Parties agree that the artwork will be created by the artist according to the client’s specifications. This section specifies the description of the work so both parties have clarity.

Deadlines

To prevent confusion, the artist agrees to complete the work according to a specific timeline and schedule. This protects the client against delays.

Rights

When the artist completes the work, certain rights will be transferred to the client. This template will identify these rights, such as exclusive rights to publish and print the work.

Compensation

After completing the work, the client will compensate the artist according to a payment schedule that both parties agree to. If the client doesn’t pay on time, they will have to pay interest and will be responsible for any fees incurred by the artist when enforcing this agreement, such as court costs.

Termination

The client can end the agreement at any time as long as written notice is provided. The template provides compensation, such as 50% of the compensation if the artist has completed the work.

How to Fill out the Art Commercial Use Agreement Template

There are some important details to include in the template. Here are the steps to follow when filling it out.

  • Step 1: At the start of the agreement, fill in the day, month, year, and names of both parties: the artist’s and client’s. Include their addresses.
  • Step 2: Describe the artwork that is referred to in this agreement.
  • Step 3: Write the work schedule that needs to be followed.
  • Step 4: Include the purpose for which the artwork will be used.
  • Step 5: Write the payment schedule both parties agree to follow.
  • Step 6: In the space provided, write the year and artist name so that the client provides an accurate copyright notice.
  • Step 7: Sign the document. The client and artist must include their names and signatures.
