The weirdest part of this is it isn’t even good art. It’s the sort of art you would expect from 12-year-old junior high students.

So at least he probably hardly sold any of it.

    Possible that the teacher can’t pay for shit on their small income. If that’s the reason, this is pretty depressing.

      I was going to shit on you because I’m used to Ontario teacher wages where they are compensated adequately (as opposed to say the US). But that apparently doesn’t hold true for Quebec.

        Here in the freedom land, we make our teachers buy their own art supplies.

      So talk to the kids, parents and/or the school and do this the right way. Instead of, you know, sketchy online tactics. They’d probably sell better with community support too.

        The school won’t do jack squat.

        The right way is to suck up to 100s of people on the chain of command. The alternative is to do it yourself. I think the decision is easy on this one (maybe not for you, if you’re into that shit)

          The decision of stealing form literal kids and getting fired? I mean… If that’s a clear decision for you…

            I am sure you will forget all about this once this “criminal” is behind bars. But you will never lift your fingers for actual education reform or raising teachers’ salaries.

                Ok then what other venture takes others’ creation and sells it off as their own?
