Some more or less Ripper-related paintings

Hi folks - I love this thread. I'm new to the forums, my first post was earlier today, so go easy on me! I'm an artist who lives quite close to Whitechapel, in the Hackney area, and in fact I buy my art materials at a large store on Hanbury St, quite near Bucks Row/Durward St. A lot of my work used to be quite closely related to the Ripper murders, and the idea of murder is still hovering around in the background, although it's thankfully presented slightly more obliquely these days. Anyway, here are some of my images.

They're all old-fashioned oil on canvas, and the topmost is my first oil painting from many years ago, entitled 'The Fourth Canonical Victim'. The rest, in order of appearance, are:

The Man Who Cut Off His Halo
The Man Who Was Afraid To Ask
The Man Who Stared At The Moon
Mapping the Mechanisms of Escape
Notes Toward a Narrative Account of Several Fictitious Past Lives

I regret the crude morbidity of the first painting, a human being's memory perhaps deserves different, but I was quite young at the time.

All my JTR stuff is on fb under Suzi Hanney Artist- must get around to editing it all though!

Copyright

Hello,
I am an artist in America and I am creating a series of illustration's about JTR.
I was wondering if any of ya'll know anything about the copyright laws of using some of the JTR case photograph's as inspiration for illustration's that I am creating? Is there a web site that has the copyright laws concerning the photograph's I am using?
Many thanks,
Cameron :-)

By the way, Magpie, excellent work. Excellent work indeed.

Made it awhile ago as my Casebook profile pic.

However, when I posted it, the picture came out extremely small. Any tips to fix this?

It's me and Grell Sutcliff, taken at AnimeBoston 2010.

Here's a link to John Atkinson Grimshaw's paintings. He did marvelously atmospheric paintings. One of them is on the cover of Dust and Shadow, by Lyndsey Faye, a Sherlock Vs the Ripper novel, referenced here on the Conan Doyle thread. I just thought people would enjoy looking at these. Wasn't quite sure where to put this.

Spent the evening doodling, so I thought I'd share:

Hello you all!

At least on my behalf I can say;

It needs a lot of practice, it doesn't come easy!

All the best
Jukka
