Plagiarism is taking the work of others and passing it as your own without crediting the authors. In this case the photographer created his work of art/composition, the user's work is completely based on the work of art of the photographer, a derivative work, and she doesnt credit the author, hence, its plagiarism.
The work being in a different art medium is irrelevant, since its clearly a derivative work regardless of the medium.
Additionally, she doesnt have permission to monetize derivative works of that copyrighted photograph, so she is also infringing copyright law.
hi daio, i love your Profile <3!!!
don't follow those who plagiarize!
@ilgiaguaro This is not plagiarism! She draws a person from a photo! so do all the artists! Read the law of law!
The law says that if you are going to monetize derivative works of a copyrighted photograph you need permission from the author.
This is not called plagiarism! This is an art loan!
