-HOW TO GET INTO THE SKATEBOARD ART BUSINESS-

All the research that I have done to have my art published for skatboard art has come to one conclusion!!! It comes down to knowing someone that owns a big time skateboard business, such as DC, or Element. I talked to the owner of the AEdion and he told me that you must have a reputation of amazing art and you need to know someone that has an IN. He also told me if I really have a goal you should never give up because you never know who you will meet on a plain or in a coffee shop. Until that day that I meet this person I will keep on working on my dream and goals.

The procces to get a symbol trademarked!! Trademarks are governed by both state and federal law. In order to serve as a trademark, a mark must be distinctive.

Registration constitutes nationwide constructive notice to others that the trademark is owned by the party.
