I most recently became aware of this artist's deplorable and shameful plight through the Confessions of a Pagan Soccer Mom's blog. Apparently, John T. Unger is being sued by a large manufacturer so they can sell cheap knockoffs of his art. Read his story here.
Please spread the word about this situation any way you can. If this manufacturer wins, it will set a dangerous precedent for artists everywhere, who only want to profit from their own hard work.
As this is an ongoing legal battle, keep it classy and don't contact the company responsible for this action or badmouth them on your blog or social networking site. That could backfire on John, and the poor guy has enough on his plate right now.
Thanks for helping out!
