The "Right Click Crime"

Today is Studio Day and what am I doing? Am I producing loads of great artwork with all this creative peace and quiet I've scratched out of the week? No, I'm spending time trying to figure out how to make sure my artwork images aren't downloadable by you good people......and I'm SURE you are all good people. And as such would have no need to be taking my blood, sweat, and tears driven artwork off the net for your own purposes. So why the need to make them inaccessible? Because there is always a wolf in sheep's clothing out there, somewhere, lurking.....ready to pounce on unsuspecting artwork and rip it bodily from it's cyber resting place, forcing it to do it's graphic bidding. If I was a sculptress I would have no worries as the printed representation of my work would not compete for the sale of said work. If you want a sculpture for your garden you aren't going to put a piece of paper with a picture of the sculpture on it in that lovely garden spot...not nearly the same......at all.  If you are interested in hanging a print on the wall then my 2-D artwork is much more at risk, because lets face it, good printers are a dime a dozen and you can manage to print anything off the web with good enough clarity to frame and hang on your wall....depending on the size of the work. And that won't be too good for business.........my business, to be exact. So instead of producing work here I sit trying to figure out a way to not be a victim of the "right click crime"......**sigh**..........what 's the world coming to anyways....?....
