    Hi guys!

    Turns out that at the end of the month I'm going to be in an art show! Just a little "art walk" downtown, so nothing snooty and high-browed.
    I want to bring some prints along of a few of my silhouettes, and see if they sell. The only thing I know to do is scan the art and send it to Sams to be printed. Am I supposed to do something else? Sign the bottom, write "1 of 5" or something?
    I'm totally lost, so if you have and info I'd love to know!

    Thanks!
    Laura
   

This was MyWeekThroughArt. How was yours?

I've been kind of in active on here because I've been in Walt Disney World for the past week and still have a week more! There's not been many new silhouettes because I got 5 orders the day before I left for Florida I have many plans for the summer though!

Here's and update on the project I'm doing now-
I've drawn over 50 Disney characters and right now I'm trying to get them all signed! I literally just met Pooh, Tigger, Dug, and Russell in the last hour or so. It's been fun!

More updates to come,
Laura

So, guys, this girl- www.redbubble.com/people/cwrob… has stolen 5 of my silhouettes and has been selling them on t-shirts and stickers. Also, she has stolen other artists' works.
Now, I don't usually mind if a work of mine shows up on Pinterest or Tumblr without credit, because it can eventually be traced back to me, and nobody is making money from it. But when my work is sold without my permission,that is something that I am not okay with.
I'm going to start with a formal complaint, and see what happens. Hopefully she will take them down, and this won't be a big mess.
Also, I think I'm going to have to start watermarking all of my stuff. I really hate to do it, but I want to try and prevent this from happening again.

Do you guys know if there's anything else I can do?

Thanks
Laura

I haven't posted anything in a while (school is insane), so the traffic on my page has decreased, but I noticed that today (for some reason) the view count peaked at 73! That doesn't even happen when I post a new picture! I don't know if something was posted on tumblr or Pinterest or what but this is weird (not that I mind xD)
Has something like this happened to you guys before?

That is all
