Stolen sherlock fanart is being printed and sold in facebook!!!

plaiHey guys, first of all I’m a fanart hoarder and I recognize a lot of artists here in tumblr, so when i first ecountered this while scrolling down on facebook I was ENRAGED. 

WTF! This is fanart made by gorgeous  @rednavi also by willietheplaidjacket and there’s also stuff by @taikova and some stuff by @sh2jw(i dont have the screenshots for those)but I do have a lot of fanarts of theirs in my johnlock files and I’m very pissed because I have found not one piece of evidence that any of the artists has given permission for their artwork to be sold in this way. 

They print it on canvas and I’m not even sure how they print it in suchlarge sizes. But please please help me report this page and make them erase their dishonest way of making money. 

Send them messages asking them to stop and send complains to facebook about this page. This is the URL

I already warned them to stop this and they just saw my message and no response:

I always tell my students not to worry about originality; just try to copy the manners and musics of the various, the more various the better, poetries you love: your originality will come from your inability to copy well: YOUR GENIUS IS YOUR ERROR.

I know a lot of people have been honoring Matt’s request to do something creative in Monty’s name, and I thought it might be nice to have a common place to post it.

If you’ve done something creative, please post it with the hashtag #CreativeForMonty on Twitter/tumblr/Instagram. It doesn’t have to...

I might eventually go and edit this but

Likes can only go so far for artists. Artists may exclusively upload their artwork to tumblr, or don’t have the time to use other sites and prefer tumblr over deviantART due to its simplicity, but the tagging system can make it harder to navigate. Many artists on tumblr tag with high-traffic tags or use their own tags to prevent tag clogging which eventually become lost. That’s why it’s very important to reblog an artist’s work. 

I’m not trying to push you to ruin your blog’s aesthetic or something, nor am I saying that “you must absolutely reblog your favourite artist’s work or you’re trash”, all I’m saying is if you truly want to support your favourite artist, instead of just liking their posts, try to reblog them once in a while. The more reblogs they receive, the more exposure/notes/followers they may receive, and it’s just one of the easiest ways to show you care about them.

*This does not mean to reblog unsourced artwork or works reuploaded to another person’s blog without permission (re:stolen). Nor does this mean to reblog artworks without the artist’s consent, even if this case is slim.

The overseas news reports keep trying to explain why so many Hong Kong people are so dispirited and angry, and they keep only scratching the surface. Start with this: that the parents or grandparents of almost every Hongkonger came here to escape the politics and chaos and lawlessness of mainland China. Today, they look at a local government made up almost entirely of people chosen for their loyalty to the PRC, irrespective of their ability or their personal ethics. Almost every government minister has profound “communist” sympathies or former DAB or “leftist” connections. Some are not so “hidden” Communists. That is the only reason they are there. It feels to many Hong Kong people that they are trapped, ruled by these people. No one voted for them. When the public DID vote a prominent leftist out of the Legislative Council, the Chief Executive just appointed him to the Executive Council, which has MORE power. Screw your democracy. That would not seem so bad if the Legislative Council could impose any restraints on the government. But too few observers understand or care that the Legislative Council is half made up of functional constituencies who are either kowtowing to Beijing or to big business. There is a split voting system where legislation must be passed both by geographically elected legislators and these special interest legislators, who are basically lobbyists. The public did not vote for them, but they can veto ANY legislation aimed at controlling the government or supporting grassroot interests. That is why, for many democrats, Legco becomes solely a space for political theatre. Because democrats and pro-grassroots legislators can achieve nothing there. NO WORTHWHILE LEGISLATION THE GOVERNMENT DOES NOT LIKE CAN BE PASSED. EVER. It feels to many Hong Kong people that they are trapped, ruled by this system. More and more young people feel they can’t have children. Many cannot even afford to get married. Rents sky rocket. Homes of their own are too expensive. Prices are being driven up by property developers and mainland investors. The government and the CE hate the idea of rent control or seriously changing this. If you send your kids to public school, the government wants to feed them a propagandist version of history. The compulsory application of this is blocked for now, but some schools are doing it anyway. If you want to send them to a good private school, forget it. You probably can’t afford it. It feels to many Hong Kong people that they and their next generation are trapped, ruled by these circumstances. Rent seekers are destroying innovation and local business. Young innovators can’t survive. Any successful business has its rents pushed up until the owner is working for the landlord. Hong Kong home grown business is dying. The media could help. But look at the people given pride of place when the tycoons went to Beijing. And you know that the media are not inclined to help. Hong Kong has about one and a half papers that do not toe the line. Its commercial TV stations are both perceived as pandering to political interests. Self censorship is rife. Local broadcast media are turning away from international English-language programming, which lowers HK’s profile worldwide. It feels to many Hong Kong people that they are finding no help there, so they turn to social media instead. But they feel the forums for debate are shrinking. And then there’s the influx of mainlanders. This is nothing against the mainlanders themselves, but Hongkongers do feel they are being used as a deliberate tool of assimilation: to mainlandise their home and remove it of its identity. So, international press, look deeper. This is NOT just a petty argument about public nomination for the Chief Executive. It’s about having room to breathe. It is about a sense of complete despair, of seeing no direction open. Hongkongers are not stupid. I do not believe they would choose a Chief Executive that the PRC has the ability to reject anyway. They just want to breathe and not feel they are being boxed into an ever tighter and tighter corner where someone is about to turn the lights out for good. This is no rebellion. It’s desperation.

I’ve been on vacation and am returning to the real world now, and I’m sure what I’m about to write will be repetitive for some. But I can’t not write it, and I hope that you share it because tomorrow, October 1, has the potential to be a historic day for Hong Kong, good or bad.

You have probably...

When Van Gogh was a young man in his early twenties, he was in London studying to be a clergyman. He had no thought of being an artist at all. he sat in his cheap little room writing a letter to his younger brother in Holland, whom he loved very much. He looked out his window at a watery twilight, a thin lampost, a star, and he said in his letter something like this: “it is so beautiful I must show you how it looks.” And then on his cheap ruled note paper, he made the most beautiful, tender, little drawing of it. When I read this letter of Van Gogh’s it comforted me very much and seemed to throw a clear light on the whole road of Art. Before, I thought that to produce a work of painting or literature, you scowled and thought long and ponderously and weighed everything solemnly and learned everything that all artists had ever done aforetime, and what their influences and schools were, and you were extremely careful about *design* and *balance* and getting *interesting planes* into your painting, and avoided, with the most astringent severity, showing the faintest *acedemical* tendency, and were strictly modern. And so on and so on. But the moment I read Van Gogh’s letter I knew what art was, and the creative impulse. It is a feeling of love and enthusiasm for something, and in a direct, simple, passionate and true way, you try to show this beauty in things to others, by drawing it. And Van Gogh’s little drawing on the cheap note paper was a work of art because he loved the sky and the frail lamppost against it so seriously that he made the drawing with the most exquisite conscientiousness and care.
