Mijn Schatje<\/a> (aka Marie Blanco Hendrickx) is a young, highly successful artist with a distinctive style. I posted a few of her illustrations on this blog<\/a> last month after she was listed in the Netdiver Powagirrrls<\/em><\/a>* directory.<\/p>\n

Today I received a very interesting e-mail\u00a0entitled \u201cIs Mijn Schatje an art thief?\u201d <\/em>from an anonymous source claiming that Mijn takes her archetypic doll faces (mostly Asian ball-jointed dolls, or BJDs) and other components of her work from photographs by other artists without permission and without giving credit to the original creators\u2026 the site offers numerous examples (with overlays demonstrating the appropriation process in a compelling manner) along with a variety of postings by and on behalf of \u201cthe people responsible for the sculpting, delicate painting, and painstaking photography of these labor-intensive creations.\u201d<\/p>\n
