I say to workshop participants if you reproduce my work can you acknowledge it, say where you got the ideas and pattern from because it makes it nicer for everyone. I teach everyday my patterns and adaptations and acknowledge an ideas form other artists encouraging students to visit websites, read and show appreciation. The world is now a big exhibition and I show and teach my work in and find that like you although the item may have an essence of us it is not a true likeness. As artists we have to look on the positive and share, we do not know where are influence travels to and what effect it has.
