(24,259 posts)The rightful artist is shared at the link. The buttwipe, Chris Devins, who stole her creation even used a go fund me to raise money to put this up. He admits it's her image but he claims it was 'inspiration'. It's not just 'inspiration' if you use the exact same image and just make it bigger, it's STEALING.
Here's an article on this. I found the original graphic on the artists page at the link know and it's obviously hers and since hers is dated to last October it predates the mural.

(24,259 posts)Off the web to display on his bedroom wall. He misrepresented someone else's work as his own and set up a go fund me account to raise money to create a piece of art.
It's my understanding that taking someone else's work and misrepresenting it as your own is plagiarism.
