MY RELEASE/PERMISSION: I give the SDAG and OTG permission to use images of me and/or my art for advertising, marketing, publicity, newsletters, news releases, the SDAG/OTG website, and social media. I understand these images may be used without me being credited and without my prior approval or inspection.
