It's likely a derivative work...but it's debatable if the added originality is truly deserving of extensive flags. It wasn't just a copy, but a copy of a reference for simply a portion of a work. I personally really liked the mandala flowers. Treating everyone the same regardless of circumstance ignores the fact that every situation is different. It's not an exact copy. It's far closer than she should have done...but she also did a lot of originality in the rest of the work.
