Adobe Illustrator/graphic design

Question
Hi Kevin,
I hope you can answer my question.  I am interested in selling custom t-shirts.  I do not know how to design the artwork, so I would like to hire a graphic designer.  I have a logo and several artwork to give to the designer.  I was wondering, once the designer designs my artwork, does he/she put it on software; in order for me to use it over and over again.  Or, would I have to have him/her design my artwork each time I want to transfer it on paper or clothing?  Thank you

Answer
Hi Lisa,

If you are serious about selling shirts, you may have to invest in some software.  Either way though, the artist should give you an electronic piece of art that you can reproduce as much as you want. Not on paper or design it each time you need it.

Thanks

Kevin
