You didn't draw this, you traced it. Here's your "drawing" overlaid on top of a photo of Carole Lombard from her profile page on IMDB. Your linework matches the photo perfectly. That's not art, that's theft. lombard_ov...ca40aa.jpg
"Femme Fatale" Veronica Lake, 1940s
"Blonde Bombshell" Marilyn Monroe, 1950s
"The Princess" Audrey Hepburn, 1950/1960s

TO: LakotaWolf -- I'm not sure why you are picking on me. Many artists use tracing to create their art and speed up their workflow for representational accuracy. When I started using procreate to do digital illustration, I found tracing a valuable tool in learning how to use the program. What I am trying to do is find what my visual "style" is. Tracing helps me find my style. SO... you can call me out but it doesn't change the fact that artists throughout history have used some form of tracing. Advances in realism in Western Art were a result of using optical instruments such as the camera obscura, camera lucida, and curved mirrors. I used photos in the public domain. In addition, I do not sell any of my artwork. I just draw for fun. ...but thank you for looking at my artwork. I appreciate it.
