Funny thing, as my “micro-business” grows people are starting to borrow/steal my designs for their own profit. I’m beginning to get more and more familiar with copyright law…..I’ve even had to get a lawyer! Can you believe it? People must think that it’s no big deal to use my designs. I must assume that because they don’t see a copyright symbol, they think my art is theirs to use. These people are quite wrong. Because I can prove the age and originality of my designs, they are mine to use only. Just today, an online t-shirt printing business had to remove a number of items featuring the phrase “Eat More Kale”. These were cheap, mass-produced wears with no heart and soul. The rip off artist must have known I was going to fight for what was mine. I’m no pushover. Do me a favor please, contact me if you ever see a website or retailer illegally using and selling my designs.
