    well google might lead them here for a start....

    they would ask you to produce the drawing in your defence, at least, that's what I would do...

    In pic 2 I transformed her left arm, This makes it that she is standing in some other position then what the photograph was taken. Is this claim good enough?

    About the drawing I can claim that it was lost

    it's obvious its not your photograph - so technically you should not be posting it up at all - if you produce new work that's fine, if you manipulate someone else's work it's not - can't make it any clearer that that can I

    Save yourself all the hassles Jacob and either draw your own or take your own picture of someone you know. They may be flattered to have their pic on your website.

    There is an option for drawing challenged person. Purchase the rights to a stock photograph. These days you can do this very inexpensively and then you do not have to worry about copyright infringement.

    The two examples you posted are most definitely a copyright infringement. I do not think you would get sued by the owner of the photograph but it is not worth taking the chance.

    No. It is of interest to other members.

    Hi Jacob, I agree with Gary, it's a reasonable question on copyright you asked and reasonable answers on the pitfalls of using copyrighted pics. It's useful to others who may have the same question.
