84 Times Artists Caught Companies And Fake Artists Copying Their Work And Selling It As Their Own
Thanks to the internet it's never been easier for people to rip off something that somebody else created and pass it off as their own. It isn't just individuals who do it either, but major well-known companies like New Look, Forever21, and even Disney. We wrote about one such case before, where artist Tuesday Bassen discovered that Spanish retailer Zara had stolen her designs and were using them without crediting her, and now Bored Panda has compiled an extended list of people who have experienced similar unfair treatment at the hands of people too lazy, or too talentless, to create something for themselves. Scroll down to see for yourself, and let us know how you feel in the comments.

Zara Steals Tuesday Bassen's Artwork
This is outrageous! Zara should be so ashamed!!! They got enough money to hire an entire team of designer FFS, do they really need to steal???
It is never a question of "needing" or not it is alway's a Cost/profit calculations. Same as the right price for a product is one the customer is willing to pay. Not the cost + a small margin. They probably still have an entire design team. But it still saves them designers and time to steal stuff.

This is nauseating. I never shop at Zara but I know people who do; I'm going to show them this and get them to boycott this disgusting bully of a company.
The arrogant response by Zara really makes me angry!!! Please contact the lawmakers of your country. We need laws that protect intellectual property. The law is behind the times. Shameful that big companies that can afford to pay would steal even such a small amount from someone. Really unethical. Boycott them and let these thieves' businesses die.
This is justice in the western world. You are right if you can afford it. Else you are wrong. Justice is for the priviliged. The more money you have the more right you are. In an ideal world every party would have acces to the same amount of tools to prove their point.
The funny thing is that everything Tuesday Bassen has here, isn't their original work either. These are pretty common ideas that have been done over and over again, over the years. You can't actually claim that this is your original work when it isn't original in the first place.
Can you "quietly" get a patent on this? Then you can sue her a*s off for using it! That is all I can think of. Good luck, really, very good luck.
That letter that claims that they are a major corp. and you're an indie will come in very useful in the lawsuit.
A cease and desist letter should not cost that much. Mainly, if you can show how they could have come across your work (the INTERNET, of course)...they cannot, by law use your work. Contact the Artists Guild from your nearest large city.
I went to their Facebook page to tell them exactly what I think about their p**s poor business practices and found that they have a terrible rating. Apparently, they have the work customer service ever. A lot of really pissed off people were leaving comments about being ripped off by them. It was crazy. If you want to check it out, just take a look at the ZARA Facebook page. I have no idea how they even stay in business with such an awful reputation and such terrible business practices. I won't be giving them any of my money or business. I don't do business with buncha lying thieves.
With future designs you could post a copy to yourself in a sealed envelope. Leave it sealed and if another person/ company steals your designs again you can prove you did the design before them as it will be in a sealed envelope where the post mark on the envelope will have an earlier date on it than the date the other person/ company 'designed ' it.
Zara robbing indie art and then saying they don't owe anyone anything because...indie art - criminals!!!!
No, they don't need to steal, it's just easier for them to do so and make a bigger profit....I'll never buy anything with their label...nor should anyone else!!!!
register all your images with the library of congress copyright office. It gives you more leverage and, hen you win in court, the loser has to pay all you legal fees!
It's bad enough they copy you and then to add insult to injury, they basically say you are insignificant! I honestly can't believe how arrogant their stance is! No empathy at all! Well I hope that rage makes you even more determined to fight their asses and win your deserved millions!!
Absolutely shameful for corporation like Sarah tips stoops so low
Someone needs to find an attorney that would donate their time for struggling artists who have had their artwork stolen!
..as i have supported this women before, i got a back lash from a major company simply because i upset them.. i even had many smaller design works taken~This action i have worked out holds some security. 1st, always aim on 3sections to your Art, BUT ALWAYS ON paper book design & place it in a 3 section completion; place the 1st part for a month to show, note who picks up ,& on your Paper written private book add info & times; do this through to the 3rd end part..Note, make a friend within the ‘Legal System’ somewhere~the easiest is the justice of the peace,even with your smile add a small good faith donation for their signature...Do Not Ever Put Anything On Digital~ you must wait your 3 months. If enough of Artists group together to do this,(& pls dont forget dates on your book; arrange for an ink print stamp for dates too,additionally stamp the final date with your authority person..this is the cheapest to hold ur copyrigt),& as said if enough do this then its going to create a scare.
That happened to an artist friend of mine as well, Zara had stolen her motive and used it for merch. Though in her case it was stuff she did for a published project, so the publisher was the one to sue Zara and she appeared in the trial as a witness. They are a ruthless bunch of soulless bastards.
it's their reply that's making me mad. so frikkin brash. not even a sign of shame or apology. >:/
Okay a-hole million (billion?)-dollar company--you want creative input, pay for it!!

I have seen that girls badge, like literally an exact copy of, they didn't even bother to try and maleness it look different in a shop somewhere, I'm not sure exactly I think it was in Next or something, and it was like 3 pounds per one I remember thinking about buying one

That's Briana Garcia, she works for Disney. I've been following her work for years and she's fantastic. She started in Disneyland and has worked her way into their artist showcases and character drawing demonstrations. She is very talented. Her sketches and illustrations are 100% her property and do not belong to disney or the public unless she expressly says so. Regardless of the subject. If i draw Disney's cinderella, that is 100% MY work. Credit to Disney for their character but MY illustration. If i take YOUR illustration of disney's cinderella and claim it as my own then i am stealing YOUR work. If i take your illustration and try to sell it, i'm putting myself at legal risk for stealing both IP's because i did not make the drawing and do not have permission to sell it as my own goods and i do not have permission to profit from the selling of a copyrighted disney character.

Well, it s complicated for tatoo. of course the Kshocks s one is gorgeous. But i can imagine that someone can t travel to get this tatoo and ask an other tatoo artist to make it... very common actually. A lot of tatoos are just copy of some design because the customers want it. What we need is a good tatoo artist who can do everything we ask. but asking them to copy some work can just have a very bas result on you at the end, it s a risk sinc everybody as skills in some styles or not... but i dont see the problem. If my tatoo artist dont see any problem to do a copyright caracter or drawing if i ask it... why should we be upset for that one. Should we jail all the tatoo artist who did a mickey on their customers. Wake up people. The customers ask and you just fulfill his wish. It would be some art work from internet, nobody would have say s**t.

Just fund a funny detail... Post #58 from this thread shows a design from instagram @crimewa.ve.

This makes me so sad. Specially when the copycats are big companies stealing artwork of new and young artists knowing that the original artists can't do a thing to protect their work. Obviously designers get inspired by the things that they see and might eventually end up creating something similar, but just copying what they see is so low. I have this top which has been fairly popular ever since I made the first prototype in 2013. Over the last year so I've seen it being copied plenty times. The one on the left is my original design. One on the right is IHeartRaves's version titled as "Exclusively designed by the IHeartRaves team". dreamwarri...b1171a.jpg 
What I want to see are the reactions of the thieves and how those stories unfolded, be it catching red-handed, lawsuits and other actions. I hope the thieves get what they deserve, starting from social exclusion, through embarrasement and undermined "talent" to heavy financial punishment. How can you be so insolent and steal like that?! Have you no shame?
It's very hard to actually punish them. Those Zara and Berska things are sold all around (saw them at the store only a few months back), and people were buying them like crazy because they're cute indeed. Did these people know the designs were stolen? Probably not. And even if they were, convenience would have probably won anyway. Lawyers cost a lot of money, and usually artists are short on that. The only ones who can easily be taken care of are those small businesses selling stuff online, by spreading the word. But the rest? It's going to be very hard.

Looks like they didn't steal the original photo, just copied it as an illustration. Depending on whether or not your fox in a suit photo creation is used as a business identity, it would probably be hard to get them stopped, especially if you cannot afford lawyers (if it's a representation of your business, then you can sue for brand confusion). Do you have your own works on a website? Promote the hell out of them everywhere you see this copy. Send take-down notices every time you find your stuff copied and see what happens.

This frustrates me so much. People have no respect for the amount of skill and time it takes to produce an artwork. With bigger companies, if they like the artwork enough, I'm sure they can shell out enough to pay artists for their time, but they just don't want to bother. Bigger companies know they can get away with ripping off smaller artists, and it is so maddening. I myself recently had my work ripped off. I do searches of my images from time to time with Google Images to see if anyone is illegally using my work, and I came across someone using my illustration for a brooch. fox-brooch...040f71.jpg 
Was your illustration posted online somewhere that Google Image Search can find it? Most likely, this is how most of these rip offs are being made. Instead of hiring an artist, they're appropriating stuff they find with search engines and not caring about the source. The only solution to this particular problem is to never post your stuff on line. Get into galleries or sell your own product with clear watermarks on the photographs of your merchandise, but don't post your stuff online in any usable size. This is frustrating indeed, because how do we artists share our works with others without them being harvested?

This really makes me sad/mad. These artist spend so much time and put some much of themselves into their projects and these thieves come and take them away. It's horrible. Lawyers probably cost more than a lot of these people can afford, and when it's overseas... good luck trying to get them to stop. I hope they get their justice.
It makes me furious to see that so many artists got ripped off. I had to add watermarks to my paintings. For the last few months I filled in over 2500 DMCA's and I still need to fill in 5-20 each day. While I make next to nothing and struggle to survive, my art is illegally sold on phone cases, bags, yoga mats, t-shirts etc. with cheap inferior quality all over the world (e.g. USA, China, Europe, India, Indonesia) via Amazon, Ebay, Etsy, Alibaba, Aliexpress, Taobao etc. They don't have a license and I never gave my consent. The text on my artworks are important to prevent art theft. Sadly, not all of these thieves respect watermarks. So here is what happened (Btw, if you see your art on these hoodies the main source is Alibaba.com, Taobao.com, 1688.com and Aliexpress.com. I highly recommend joining their IPR system to prevent more art thefts. From there people buy cheap products and they sell them on Amazon, Ebay, Shopify and other online stores): ArtInfring...56d0fd.jpg 
How are they getting your images? Are you presenting them in large format online? If yes, then Google Image Search (and others) is letting people harvest your work. Are your own online sales pages using large images? Reduce them and add strong watermarks.
Load More Replies... How much does it cost to copyright an image? A couple of hundred bucks? So here's a tip from a fellow artist. NEVER, EVER, EVER post ANY of your work online until AFTER you have a copyright number. ... Then, when you post it, append the copyright number at the bottom of the image. That way, copying your work is clearly illegal. .... Never be naive enough to think that it can't happen, and don't kid yourself that no one will steal your work. Remember if you post it online ANYONE CAN GET IT.
You're confusing copyright with trademark. Copyrights are free, trademarks are not. While an artist cannot assume complete security from theft when they post their work on the internet, there is and should be an expectation of compensation, just as there is with any other type of theft. Copying work without permission is stealing, period. It's the same thing as plagiarism.
Load More Replies... The most frustrating part about being an artist is to be seen you must display your work and so scumbags are easger to steal it. Even more frustrating are the complete a******s that make millions off other's work and are celebrated for doing it. People like Richard Prince and others are celebrated for blatantly stealing other's work and selling it for large profits and are protected by the art community.
Don't post large versions of your creations online. Most rip-offs are probable made by sellers using an image search engine to find "free" artwork to put on their merchandise. The only way to be safe is to not post your work online in a usable format. Try to get your work in real galleries, not posted online. If you must post online, use a small image with a huge watermark that's hard to remove.

From the first time I am thinking, "who made this picture, can I download, an I like the picture or anyhow appreciate the photographer behind it?"

Microsoft is likely purchasing the rights to those photos. You'd have to try using Google Reverse Image Search to find info about them (maybe the original or a stock photography site will show up in search),, or contact Microsoft's marketing or legal departments to ask for a list of the original artists (they will probably ignore you since they only want to spend time on things that they are legally compelled to spend time on).

Examples? Are you talking about "fan art"? If someone isn't SELLING fan art, then making and presenting fan art is not illegal. It's fair use. If they ARE selling someone else's IP, then yes, that's not legal and they might get threatened by the owners of the IP.

Brian Rubenacker should be at the top of this list. Every pillow/mug/iPhone case dealer in China has ripped him off and eBay and aliexpress were complicit. He's probably spent a fortune trying to preserve his work.
The companies know exactly who they are buying from. Its not only photos and art but song lyrics, cover art, television shows screen plays and inventions. I have been financially raped by these types of people and it needs to stop. I have to find a good lawyer to aid me in my quest. There are laws that protect artist and inventors but those of us with limited financial resources are very limited in what we can do. .I saw one of my drawings redone hanging in a Hilton hotel. This kind of theft has to be put an end to and the fakes need to be exposed and made to pay what they owe.
It's like what Rappers do by camp lung others artists work in their songs and then passing it off as their own w/o given credit or compensation to the artist(s) they sampled from.

This is what happens if you don't copyright your work before you make it available online.
Imagine you are a big company that deals with a ton of artwork, like Ford, type deal. An artist claims a work as original and sells it to you. Is it up to you to dig into the history of the artwork to make sure they didn't steal it from someone else? I don't feel like it is, beyond perhaps a quick google reverse image search, but even that shouldn't be the buyers responsibility. It's messed up when you become responsible for someone else's claims. Then again, if you purchase something that turns out to have been stolen, the police take it from you. I dunno, it's a tough one because I see it from both sides (and I've had video I took stolen and used for profit from a company with international reach so believe me I understand how it feels).
lawyers call it due diligence, such artists are usually required sign a legal document stating that the work they are selling is original and theirs alone.

I’m surprised Lisa Congdon isn’t in here. She’s probably the most famous artist of our time who’s made a career for herself off copying other artists work, or using it as a jumping off point.

Working as a Graphic Designer in the fashion industry I learned that shamelessly copying designs is the industry standard. I worked for the largest clothing retailers in South Africa and they all do it. They actually send "buyers" overseas to go on clothing shopping sprees. Then the buyers destroy the clothing by cutting them up to make them unwearable (this creates a loophole to get past import customs), then it's the job of a junior graphic designer to make carbon copies of the designs. I'm not talking about using it for trend prediction or inspiration, I mean literally carbon copies, sometimes down to the smallest details.
I remember once ripping off an entire Nike active-wear range. We took images from their catalogue, photoshopped their logo out and replaced it with a generic made-up brand, and voila that was our spring/summer active wear range to be sold in stores across the country.
Load More Replies... I've worked as a Graphic Designer for the top retailers and clothing brands here in South Africa and the standard practice is to send "buyers" overseas. They basically go on a clothes shopping spree, then "destroy" the items by cutting them up and making them unwearable (this gives them a loophole to get past import customs), then they bring it to a designer like myself who's job it was to copy the designs. They aren't just using these items for trend prediction or for inspiration, they are literally making carbon copies. I must reiterate that these aren;t fringe-cases... this is the de facto industry standard.

Whenever art is stolen or used without credit/permission, it hurts the whole art community...I know it's hard for consumers to know when this is happening ie/ Forever 21, Etsy, Target, and other large companies, present their wares as legal. Most people expect that the T-shirt, keychain, mug etc... belongs to them and isn't stolen. But as you can see from these posts, art is brazenly stolen all the time! Typically from small artists that don't have a pot to p**s in and have no legal recourse. They can't afford a good lawyer, so most of the time the best the artist can do is point out that their work has been stolen. As consumers, we have the ability to stop buying things that have stolen art work on them. So if you see that an artist is saying their work hasn't been credited, or they didn't get permission to use it, then boycott it! As the mother of an artist I've seen personally what this does to an artist. It's not only sad but it is stealing money from a group of hard working people

This makes me so angry. Artists have a hard enough time making a living, and for them to be ripped off my major corporations is immoral and a flagrant abuse of power. Yeah, I know--this is often a case of a lazy design company ripping off someone else's ideas, but you know what--you want something, pay for it (i.e. design company).
There are also people who steal art that isn't decorative mediocrity. For example: "Rat Fink" artists and designers Johnny Ace and Kali Verra have shared numerous examples of people lifting their copyrighted drawings and paintings for unauthorized merchandise.
Thank you Bored Panda & Šarūnė Mac for exposing these ruthless thieves &/or con artists!!! They deserve to be outed at the very least.
When I lived in San Jose, CA At the local flea market ICE agents were always busting some Vietnamese for making T shirts with nike, NFL, etc logos. But they won't go after big corporations?
I had one of my photos stolen by Karen millian clothing, twice ! at least they had to compensate me, but I think they got it from a German agency because the multinational firm ARUP stole the same photo for one of their prospectus on lighting that they handed out to clients.

Stock photo sites capitalize on this and they know the importance of giving there artist a safe place to post their work. I know that these companies have no right, but better safe then sorry.
That's why I put a watermark on every piece of my artwork I post on the internet. I'm not taking any chances.

Perhaps people shouldn't be posting their original artwork on the internet if they plan on monetizing it at some point?
The comments throughout this article's postings... Most people seem to get that art theft is bad, but it's still sad how many people don't get it. So few people understand intellectual property law and ethics. Especially bizarre that people seem to excuse it when it's a tattoo. Tattoos are not a free-for-all to steal artwork. No, an unapproved tattoo copy of someone's artwork is not flattery. It's theft. Flattery does not pay the bills. When the tattoo artist gets paid (knowingly or not) for copying someone else's art, that's an exchange of money for stolen art, and the artist is not getting that money (getting no compensation for their intellectual property being used/sold).

This makes me so sad. Specially when the copycats are big companies stealing artwork of new and young artists knowing that the original artists can't do a thing to protect their work. Obviously designers get inspired by the things that they see and might eventually end up creating something similar, but just copying what they see is so low. I have this top which has been fairly popular ever since I made the first prototype in 2013. Over the last year so I've seen it being copied plenty times. The one on the left is my original design. One on the right is IHeartRaves's version titled as "Exclusively designed by the IHeartRaves team". dreamwarri...b1171a.jpg
What I want to see are the reactions of the thieves and how those stories unfolded, be it catching red-handed, lawsuits and other actions. I hope the thieves get what they deserve, starting from social exclusion, through embarrasement and undermined "talent" to heavy financial punishment. How can you be so insolent and steal like that?! Have you no shame?
It's very hard to actually punish them. Those Zara and Berska things are sold all around (saw them at the store only a few months back), and people were buying them like crazy because they're cute indeed. Did these people know the designs were stolen? Probably not. And even if they were, convenience would have probably won anyway. Lawyers cost a lot of money, and usually artists are short on that. The only ones who can easily be taken care of are those small businesses selling stuff online, by spreading the word. But the rest? It's going to be very hard.

Looks like they didn't steal the original photo, just copied it as an illustration. Depending on whether or not your fox in a suit photo creation is used as a business identity, it would probably be hard to get them stopped, especially if you cannot afford lawyers (if it's a representation of your business, then you can sue for brand confusion). Do you have your own works on a website? Promote the hell out of them everywhere you see this copy. Send take-down notices every time you find your stuff copied and see what happens.

This frustrates me so much. People have no respect for the amount of skill and time it takes to produce an artwork. With bigger companies, if they like the artwork enough, I'm sure they can shell out enough to pay artists for their time, but they just don't want to bother. Bigger companies know they can get away with ripping off smaller artists, and it is so maddening. I myself recently had my work ripped off. I do searches of my images from time to time with Google Images to see if anyone is illegally using my work, and I came across someone using my illustration for a brooch. fox-brooch...040f71.jpg
Was your illustration posted online somewhere that Google Image Search can find it? Most likely, this is how most of these rip offs are being made. Instead of hiring an artist, they're appropriating stuff they find with search engines and not caring about the source. The only solution to this particular problem is to never post your stuff on line. Get into galleries or sell your own product with clear watermarks on the photographs of your merchandise, but don't post your stuff online in any usable size. This is frustrating indeed, because how do we artists share our works with others without them being harvested?

It makes me furious to see that so many artists got ripped off. I had to add watermarks to my paintings. For the last few months I filled in over 2500 DMCA's and I still need to fill in 5-20 each day. While I make next to nothing and struggle to survive, my art is illegally sold on phone cases, bags, yoga mats, t-shirts etc. with cheap inferior quality all over the world (e.g. USA, China, Europe, India, Indonesia) via Amazon, Ebay, Etsy, Alibaba, Aliexpress, Taobao etc. They don't have a license and I never gave my consent. The text on my artworks are important to prevent art theft. Sadly, not all of these thieves respect watermarks. So here is what happened (Btw, if you see your art on these hoodies the main source is Alibaba.com, Taobao.com, 1688.com and Aliexpress.com. I highly recommend joining their IPR system to prevent more art thefts. From there people buy cheap products and they sell them on Amazon, Ebay, Shopify and other online stores): ArtInfring...56d0fd.jpg
How are they getting your images? Are you presenting them in large format online? If yes, then Google Image Search (and others) is letting people harvest your work. Are your own online sales pages using large images? Reduce them and add strong watermarks.
Load More Replies... How much does it cost to copyright an image? A couple of hundred bucks? So here's a tip from a fellow artist. NEVER, EVER, EVER post ANY of your work online until AFTER you have a copyright number. ... Then, when you post it, append the copyright number at the bottom of the image. That way, copying your work is clearly illegal. .... Never be naive enough to think that it can't happen, and don't kid yourself that no one will steal your work. Remember if you post it online ANYONE CAN GET IT.
You're confusing copyright with trademark. Copyrights are free, trademarks are not. While an artist cannot assume complete security from theft when they post their work on the internet, there is and should be an expectation of compensation, just as there is with any other type of theft. Copying work without permission is stealing, period. It's the same thing as plagiarism.
Load More Replies... The most frustrating part about being an artist is to be seen you must display your work and so scumbags are easger to steal it. Even more frustrating are the complete a******s that make millions off other's work and are celebrated for doing it. People like Richard Prince and others are celebrated for blatantly stealing other's work and selling it for large profits and are protected by the art community.
Don't post large versions of your creations online. Most rip-offs are probable made by sellers using an image search engine to find "free" artwork to put on their merchandise. The only way to be safe is to not post your work online in a usable format. Try to get your work in real galleries, not posted online. If you must post online, use a small image with a huge watermark that's hard to remove.

I think you can post online (not use for selling product without permission of course) copies or reproductions of drawings you like as an art exercise. You can often see that on deviantart but.... just give credits to original artists !!! Come on be fair- play :/ !!!
Tell me this! I love the wonderful pictures that the Windows update is showing every single time I start my computer. BUT! From the first time I am thinking, "who made this picture, can I download, an I like the picture or anyhow appreciate the photographer behind it?" Anybody has any idea f thy have a database with all those beautiful pics and their origin?
Microsoft is likely purchasing the rights to those photos. You'd have to try using Google Reverse Image Search to find info about them (maybe the original or a stock photography site will show up in search),, or contact Microsoft's marketing or legal departments to ask for a list of the original artists (they will probably ignore you since they only want to spend time on things that they are legally compelled to spend time on).

I find this hilarious on Bored Panda, where we're subjected to never-ending posts from those "inspired by" (aka blatantly stealing) others' art every damn day.
Examples? Are you talking about "fan art"? If someone isn't SELLING fan art, then making and presenting fan art is not illegal. It's fair use. If they ARE selling someone else's IP, then yes, that's not legal and they might get threatened by the owners of the IP.

The companies know exactly who they are buying from. Its not only photos and art but song lyrics, cover art, television shows screen plays and inventions. I have been financially raped by these types of people and it needs to stop. I have to find a good lawyer to aid me in my quest. There are laws that protect artist and inventors but those of us with limited financial resources are very limited in what we can do. .I saw one of my drawings redone hanging in a Hilton hotel. This kind of theft has to be put an end to and the fakes need to be exposed and made to pay what they owe.
It's like what Rappers do by camp lung others artists work in their songs and then passing it off as their own w/o given credit or compensation to the artist(s) they sampled from.
Load More Replies... This is what happens if you don't copyright your work before you make it available online.
Imagine you are a big company that deals with a ton of artwork, like Ford, type deal. An artist claims a work as original and sells it to you. Is it up to you to dig into the history of the artwork to make sure they didn't steal it from someone else? I don't feel like it is, beyond perhaps a quick google reverse image search, but even that shouldn't be the buyers responsibility. It's messed up when you become responsible for someone else's claims. Then again, if you purchase something that turns out to have been stolen, the police take it from you. I dunno, it's a tough one because I see it from both sides (and I've had video I took stolen and used for profit from a company with international reach so believe me I understand how it feels).
lawyers call it due diligence, such artists are usually required sign a legal document stating that the work they are selling is original and theirs alone.

Working as a Graphic Designer in the fashion industry I learned that shamelessly copying designs is the industry standard. I worked for the largest clothing retailers in South Africa and they all do it. They actually send "buyers" overseas to go on clothing shopping sprees. Then the buyers destroy the clothing by cutting them up to make them unwearable (this creates a loophole to get past import customs), then it's the job of a junior graphic designer to make carbon copies of the designs. I'm not talking about using it for trend prediction or inspiration, I mean literally carbon copies, sometimes down to the smallest details.
I remember once ripping off an entire Nike active-wear range. We took images from their catalogue, photoshopped their logo out and replaced it with a generic made-up brand, and voila that was our spring/summer active wear range to be sold in stores across the country.

Whenever art is stolen or used without credit/permission, it hurts the whole art community...I know it's hard for consumers to know when this is happening ie/ Forever 21, Etsy, Target, and other large companies, present their wares as legal. Most people expect that the T-shirt, keychain, mug etc... belongs to them and isn't stolen. But as you can see from these posts, art is brazenly stolen all the time! Typically from small artists that don't have a pot to p**s in and have no legal recourse. They can't afford a good lawyer, so most of the time the best the artist can do is point out that their work has been stolen. As consumers, we have the ability to stop buying things that have stolen art work on them. So if you see that an artist is saying their work hasn't been credited, or they didn't get permission to use it, then boycott it! As the mother of an artist I've seen personally what this does to an artist. It's not only sad but it is stealing money from a group of hard working people
