Copyright question
I noted in the current issue of Artist's Magazine that Erin Crowe has been selling portraits she painted of Alan Greenspan over the years. The article says she works from source material such as newspapers and Web articles although "no painting is an exact copy of a photograph."
It is my understanding that this practice (exact copy or not) would still entail copyright infringement if she has not secured permission or a usage agreement with the photographer who took the photos. Can anyone clear this up for me?
Thanks,
Carol
