I thought I needed to post about this because I was shocked with what I saw on the web. I was surfing the web yesterday and found some of my work directly copied by another ‘chalk sign artist’… although plagiarism is the sincerest form of flattery, I pride myself on the fact that my work is mine and each board is an original (not to mention copyrighted) design! I am by no means a competitive person, I am just trying to make a living doing something I enjoy doing! What makes all of us artists unique, is our style, and I encourage all the aspiring chalk artists out there to come up with there own… the process is much more fun and the product is far more original! You’d think that an artist would pride themselves on their ability to be creative. I mean, if you are going to copy my work… don’t publish on the web. I have politely and professionally informed this person of their copyright infringement and asked that they remove the content, but if she does not do so then I will post her name… sorry gal.
That's horrible!! Your stuff is much better. If this person was going to copy your ideas…you would think that maybe they could have changed it up a little bit and used your stuff as a reference, but WOW – those are full out COPIES!!
