Description I realized that I never did put together a full documentation of my creation of Vantage Point, even though I had all of the images. Since it has been brought into question a few times in the past if I am the actual creator of this piece, this is to assure you that yes, I AM. This is a bit of a show-and-tell, a bit of a tutorial, and a bit of a territorial pissing. I created this piece, and this shows it step-by-step. I did not copy this from -anything- or -anyone-, this is purely from my own brain and creativity. Coming up with your own creation is what truly being artist is all about.

Sorry about the hugeness, but I wanted everyone to be able to see it all well enough.

OMG!!!!!! I have seen that picture EVERYWHERE. It's like, the cornerstone of werewolf/Native American artwork. I never knew who the artist was but, now I can easily see that it was you. You have my respect, which you had anyway.

This piece was created in my home town. AWESOME. I love this on my shirt and this was one of the first pieces I saw of yours that I loved. ^_^ Always a classic, and its so cool and inspirational how you make it. I wish I had the patience to try acrylic (or any traditional).

Haha, I laughed at "territorial pissing." (:
Seeing as this piece is exactly in your style, I'm not sure why it has been said to not be your original idea.

I'm very curious to know what your process for scanning in a good, clean file of a large painting is. My scans always turn out funky!

It's nice to see your process; you're really a brilliant artist. (I've been following your art since fifth grade! I'm now in college!) I'm just sad to hear what you're having to deal with right now. Some people just don't understand artistic copyright, and in today's digital age it's sometimes hard to keep track of who's claiming what. You could look at the silver lining and say that at least you got a whole bunch of fans that know better on your side. We fans who know you and your art and aren't about to believe what anyone else says on the subject.

Keep on doing what you do, you're amazing! We've got your back; we'll be your ever-watching eyes.

This is definitely one of my favorite pieces of yours Christy. I'm sorry that you had to do this to "prove", hey, this is mine. As a fellow artist, it's really sad when we have to do this. However, I very much enjoyed seeing your process.

Speaking of books, Goldie maybe you should consider publishing a book of your pieces and how you paint. Just a thought.

Snotted [2011-10-25 19:44:41 +0000 UTC]

All these years, and I never realized that this was done in traditional media. How you got it piece by piece into the computer digitally... wow. I always thought this was a digital production. Not to mention acrylic paint. I hate working with acrylic. Oil is my fancy. Great work, as always.

If you look at the original image in her gallery she says a t-shirt company has rights to print it by her permission.

You should post the name of the store...if Christy didn't give them rights to, she needs to contact them about it. Get the name of the company, tell the store to stop selling them, etc.
