I'd say so, but how do you find something if it isn't copyright? Do you just search all images on the internet?

Not defending the club, but asking how would you go about it? I wouldn't know where to start.

I guess it is hard as the artist has come out and said she hasn't had it on Instagram and typically she doesn't with her artwork.

So unless the image was photographed and uploaded and they did an image search it would come down to actually seeing the painting which is down at Flinders Medical Centre.

I think Port have to do away with this community engagement of the gurnseys design is n future and just go straight to an artist for this type of work.

The girl who designed this could say she's an artist, an artist is part of the community, how do you differentiate?

So in this case I agree there's absolutely no way the Power could've known about this unless someone from the club actually saw the painting itself.

Without trademarks or the like, how do you check it?

Purely guessing but I reckon the girl might have seen it some time ago then redrawn it without recalling it was someone else's or probably knowing the ramifications of copying someone's design.

Dont think you can sink the boots into the club for this one, all done in good faith and taken on face value, you could never be 100% any design isn't copied somehow, as long as the original artist is acknowledged then good can come out of this and play on.

FWIW I reckon it looks great.
