From Carol Hovey:

Hello all, I am in need of some direction...Just before leaving for a trip 2 weeks ago I received a request from a textbook/software publishing company in Brazil to use the image of one of my watercolors in a new textbook.  They have asked me what my parameters for use and fee are, and I have no idea what to tell them, never having done this before.  If any of you have had similar experience with a  request to use an art image I'd really appreciate hearing from you! Thanks,
       Carol Hovey
