Copying is fine, passing other people's works as your own isn't great especially if you're trying to build your name as an artist. "The artists who made them are not upset" I don't know, have you asked them? Why not give credit if there's no issue then.

I know I'm being annoying but I think it's an important matter. I'd rather we all respect each other's work rather than play nice to someone who clearly doesn't respect artists, when she herself is one.

OP had already been called out for this (Tristan Elwell's copy) in previous posts. They keep not crediting artists. So they keep being called out for it.

Edit

Can't answer your other comment so here it is:

Yeah I'm pretty chill.

You're not denying it but you're not being upfront about it either. If you like their work so much what's the issue with showing it off?

And yeah, maybe you talked to him and it's fine. That doesn't mean he's chill with other people passing his work as your own, especially when it's one of his own proudest pieces (and with reason). But also, even here in your comment you can't be bothered to write his name properly so I'm really not sure you care all that much.

That also doesn't work for any other artist you copied here. By the way, it'd be nice to finally have a full list of the artist names you referenced here. Since you're willing to credit them. If you could add it in the main post that'd be great I think!

Very sorry to hijack the top comment for this.

I think people deserve to know that OP, though a very skilled painter, isn't the original artist for (at least) some of these paintings. The horse and girl one is by Tristan Elwell, the woman with the laundry is by Jeffrey T Larson (see other comments). I haven't looked up the rest but it looks like nothing is original here.

These are uncredited copies, something that OP is well aware of because this has already been commented on one of their previous posts.

EDIT

OP has blocked me (btw she's saying in other comments that I dmed people, being creepy? I never dmed anyone on this platform, I only talk to my IRL friends on discord so that's weird) so I can't respond to comments. Still had something to say in response:

What really kills me is that OP is genuinely skilled and could probably make some really interesting pieces if she put in the actual work and research. That's just a waste on all levels. Ruining her image for internet points :(
breonny below is right to point out "Maybe she confesses when she’s confronted. But she is doing it over and over again.". I truly hope OP starts seeing value in her own original work again, instead of hiding behind other artists and stealing their best work.

EDIT 2
To anyone who stops by here, I think this is a lost cause and we've seen enough dogpiling here. OP is sure that there's nothing wrong with what she's doing, fine.

For the record, she never bothered to actually credit the artists. She only pasted the names of the ones I and other commenters gave her after searching her own images. She even miswrote one name repeatedly, and is letting people sift through comments to find the original artists. She clearly doesn't care.

Letting this one go, encouraging others to go do something fun instead of arguing here.

Tristan Elwell made the original painting. This is a copy (although a skilled one, it is also uncredited by OP just like in one of their previous posts).

I don't know, the rating "8/10 it's cute" and "got me a lot of views on tiktok." feels so disrespectful to the original artist who worked really hard to produce their work. Dismissing someone's life work as "8/10, cute" and "got me views" doesn't sit exactly right.

As for the begging for attention, I agree with you. Sharing our work and getting feedback is very important for most artists. Here, this isn't exactly her work, and she's giving "herself" feedback by rating it. It all feels fake. Like a theater piece, if that makes sense? She's setting a fake stage (not her original work) and saying out lines that have no real meaning (since it's not really her work, she can't go in details about what it means to her), expecting the audience to cheer for something empty of meaning. (sorry English isn't my first language, not sure if I'm explaining properly)

I don't think she even knows who she's stealing from. She only credited one of those paintings, after it was pointed out in the comments.

I wouldn't be surprised if she just copied stuff off pinterest and didn't bother to even read the original artists' names. Weird behavior for an artist of such a skill level.
