Because I had such a difficult time understanding the concept of getting a free Creative Commons license, I am sharing the instructions of the one I found helped me the best.  It is on the Fifty-Nine Minutes youtube video.

An area that is growing exponentially in terms of copyright is Aboriginal art.  Artists desire to produce their work for commercial output but the question of proprietary rights and exploitation arise.  There are many considerations that must be balanced to ensure that these rights are protected.  Terry Janke speaks about this issue especially the commercialization of culture.

NAB’s Indigenous Affairs Master Class – Terri Janke

Terri Janke deals with artwork Copyright. Where are you taking my art – beyond its cultural settings? Lots depends on whether or not they will allow their Indigenous Knowledge to become public knowledge, make it available and then it exists that breach of copyright happens and Indigenous art and Knowledge needs to be protected from the commercialization of culture – so this poses challenges. She speaks of copyright to protect Indigenous artists and talks about communal artwork and cultural expression – what is the artwork representing and who does it belong to?! However, Copyright tends to be more focused on individual rights vs communal, tribal, historical cultural expression and rights –Indigenous artists connect their works to their cultural stories and these connections are essential for Indigenous artists / peoples.
