Hey patrons!
I've gotten many messages from friends and followers that they've seen my art being used on shirts. Most can tell it's been stolen, but some wonder if I've authorized this site to use my work. I have not.
Alohahoo, a company nobody's ever heard of, appears to be stealing queer art from a BUNCH of artists, including five of my pieces, and selling it on shitty polyester shirts. So if you want a stolen jpeg that's been blown up bigger than it's meant to be and then printed on plastic, props to you I guess.
Obviously, do not buy anything from these people. There's not much I can do, I'm barely making rent right now, and certainly can't afford legal defense, haha. But I can make noise and that's something.
If you're a queer artist yourself, look through their "Pride" collection. You might be featured! How flattering!
Oh by the way, through some sleuthing, I've found that there's a more-than-0% chance that the person stealing my art is one of my patrons, so if you're here and your'e reading this:
Fuck you and I hope you burn in hell.
(It's not likely this person is a patron but it's not impossible, so just covering my bases.)
Thanks!
Drew
