@AliceSacco You do not copy from the artists, you learn from their pros and learn from their cons. As a magician, I will watch countless magicians and their different styles, use them as my base to further pursue and create my own style but there are always people who create the foundations of the art. You do not copy from them, you learn from them :D

@AliceSacco I think the clue to copying artists, and I'm mainly coming from a musicians perspective here, but it applies to all things, is that you copy as many artists as you possibly can. A parallel to this would be "Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it." By knowing a lot of history, or artists, in this case, you can draw conclusions as to which are right, or rather which are right for your particular style. That said, your view has equal merit.

@deadithink Finally someone say that! People always suggested me to copy from other artists rather than prom photos and life, but i never listened them, i always said 'other artist may do mistakes even if very good, reality is never wrong!' and they answered: 'if they make mistakes, you must correct their mistakes!'
The problem is that i don't know how correct a mistake of an artist that is better than me.

@AliceSacco You don't copy from life, you interpret life. That makes a true artist.
