As a fundraiser, the school sent us to a website where you can view some art your kid has done and then order it as a pillow, tote bag, calendar or a bunch of other options. Only this website lets you look at every piece of art that every kid in the school has done and pick any art any kid at the school has done. You just say I want this kid's art on my $15 tote bag, thanks.

My dilemma is my kid is not the greatest artist in the school.

Say to the kid 'hey you can do ANY of them! Which one you like?'

Sounds like a copyright nightmare. Did you sign some sort of release?

If you want to send a message to encourage art improvement, get another kids art on a tote or framed lol

You go the cheapest option available with your own child's artwork and you will love it because it's the best artwork ever.

Ps. Can you please approve Seagoon's new login details.

There are no new account requests waiting for approval.
Well, there was one, but it was some spam about roof repairs in Canberra and I rejected that one. Now, there are none waiting.

I've sent a message to her.

I’m not sure what the dilemma is? You afraid nobody will buy their artwork?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

@Duenan has hit the issue right on the head. πŸ˜†

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago

Oh right, I thought that was a given that you would buy one. Shit, I’ll buy one

As a parent you’re obligated to get your own kid’s art.

Without a doubt!

Yeah, we will of course. His artwork is even pretty good - particularly for him.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago

Maybe if you want you can ask him if he wants to pick one out as well.
