Chris explained–” There is a canvas print of my painting hanging in the Robert Johnson Foundation office in Mississippi that I donated to them when I was exhibiting art at their music festival in 2005 & 2006. Someone recently snapped a photo of the print and posted the photo on Facebook.  A friend told me about seeing it and I followed it on one page, adding some comments to identify me as the artist (a good number of people in their comments thought it was a photoshopped image!  I hate that!!). Then, it was shared by a page called In Music We Trust.  From that it has been shared over 400 times, and “liked” over 800 times!  Check out that page and go to their photos, you can find the post there.  I wrote to that page via messaging and asked if they could credit me.  He/she re-posted the photo with my name.  They may have deleted the earlier post that didn’t credit me (the one that had 400 shares).  This new post was up to 37 shares as of today. What’s kinda good is even though the snapshot is not to my quality, it is likely to prevent printing or theft because of the flashbulb look.”
