This was at Camrose Vintage Working Day which took place over the weekend. More than two stores entirely devoted to this drivel that took no more than a few seconds for them to generate. I spoke with some of the actual artists that were there selling their paintings, and many of them expressed how disappointed they were to see them at the event as they had been chosen over ACTUAL artists who couldn’t get a space for the craft tent.

Grifters go’n grift 😒
Ignore them and hopefully they’ll twig 🤞🤞
I don’t think selling this stuff is inherently an issue, it’s supply and demand, if people don’t buy this so stuff then they’ll soon stop selling it. Very sad to hear they got a stall spot over proper artists though. Whoever made that decision should be ashamed
There’s always a few stalls at these places that sell drivel or stolen artwork. AI is just a way of making it easier for the seller.
Oh wow this is absolutely awful
How can someone take pride in that ffs
You see these in local markets by me. Cwmbran etc.
I imagine these people have had a shop selling this shit at some point and are stuck with all the stock.
I regularly have stalls at craft markets around Wales – I hand paint and draw all my own merch. It’s soul destroying seeing stalls like this next to me! (Not to mention the stalls reselling stuff off temu!)Sadly lots of the event organisers just seem interested in taking the money for the pitches.
Get used to it because it’s not going away
