If everything is your own original work that has NEVER been done before, then you PATENT>
If you are putting the art work out in mags, newspapers, posters etc. you add a copyright 'C' sign.
Once you are an established company, then you have a trademark.
art is copyrighted
Those are protected under Copyrights.

A trademark is if you form a company under which you work and you create a symbol thats attached to every piece you make. Thats a trademark. Like GM is a trademark of Genreral Motors corp and they place it on every vehicle they make.

A Patent is if you design and build something unique (invent) and you wish to protect that design. For example if you design and build a refridgerator that runs on solar power, you can patent your design.
