And who's to say that every other item on that site was not made by some sweatshop that churns out crates of knick-knacks? This is a "featured item" on the front page: http://www.etsy.com/listing/88946705/tomato-art-print-lovely-vegetables?ref=fp_treasury_1 http://www.etsy.com/listing/88946705/tomato-art-print-lovely... Does the creator need to send documentation of them creating the original? Why not?

But in that case, the art was an original design (supposedly). They don't need a sweatshop, it's just a run of prints. What's happening here is more like he made a stencil from someone else's art and says it should count as hand made because he paints each canvas using the stencil and puts it in a generic frame he made.
