RE: Art Plagiarism and CryptoRecycler Case: @daio (#photographersarenotartists)

I do not understand? I know my rights! I did not steal and did not expose her photo for my own! I draw portraits to order. I draw portraits of people!
Do not confuse plagiarism! You do not have the right to call me that. Plagiarism is the appropriation, pictures, photos, names, and so on. Assignment, it means giving someone work for their own!
I painted a portrait, and this is already my art! I was inspired by this child and I wanted to draw it! What's not clear!?

You do Not have the right to Monetize derivative artworks of a copyrighted photograph Without the Permission of the Author.

We are not confusing the definition of plagiarism https://steemit.com/abuse/@jaguar.force/what-is-art-plagiarism-by-francis-leverett-golden inform yourself about the true scope and shades of art plagiarism.

Plagiarism is not only taking someones drawing/photograph/artwork and passing it as your own, thats called art theft, and its only the most blatant form of art plagiarism, the most common one is called art paraphrasing, which is what you are doing.

If somebody gives you a picture so you make a portrait of them, thats a different thing, since they are the model on the photograph and have the right to use it.

In this case, the photograph is Copyrighted by the photographer, that means that the photographer reserves all the rights of the picture to herself, and that means that to make derivative works of that photograph, as for example Your Drawing, you need permission from the author to do so. Additionally since by posting it in Steemit you are monetizing it you also need permission from the author to do that as well.
