people stealing my art

Hello, i will try to write this the best i can, english is not my first lenguage.
If you follow me on twitter, you might have seen this happen. Long story short; someone stole my Ankha illustration from last year to sell as a t-shirt on Redbubble, even changed the background to make a different one. It really hurts me, i've been dealing with people stealing my art for a while, and now my art getting stolen for profit is way too much.
Luckily, yesterday Redbubble took it down, but it was a very stressful situation. (I'm a lot more relaxed now tho)
I decided to stop drawing fanart, at least for a few months, i will only do exceptions with sonic characters, but it's also not something that i want to do frequently, sorry... I really don't want to deal with these situations anymore, it's annoying and i'm already in a ton of stress thanks to college.
With these i just want to remind you to not buy any stuff from Redbubble or Etsy if it's NOT directly linked by the artist. If you see any of my drawing as merch in any of these pages, it's not me and you should report it :(
If you have any page for me to sell automatized merch that is not redbubble, i would be happy to know! After this i want to make my own merch. But shipping to other countries from Chile it's kinda difficult, so i want to tests the water with that kind of pages!
