: If i create a one-of-a-kind oil painting, to be sold to a private individual, and one of the items contains a brand (in this case an old bottle of Coke), am I breaking intellectual property law? Does Coke have the right to own the painting or demand a royalty because one of the items in the oil painting is a coke bottle?

Dear Mr. Robbins,

Early legal advice is not expensive. If you screw up early it can cost down the line. Without taking professional responsibility, it is my feeling you are safe this time as far as you ask.
