The ethics of artistry

It's not often that it happens, but it seems that the very talented Kandice Seeber comes in for more than her fair share of problems with copyright theft of her images of her very lovely beads. This time it has gone a step beyond. Read about it on her blog at http://coloraddictionblog.blogspot.com/

It's a shame that places like Etsy, which are for the handcrafted works of original artists can end up with people using images without permission and profiting from them. Kandice has shown a significant amount of restraint and class in handling what is a very real problem.
