Derivative Art Painting Name: ___________________Pd. __

Derivative is defined as something that is based on another source.

Derivative Art is a creation that includes imagery from major, copyright-protected elements of an original,
previously created first work.

A painting based on a photograph is also a derivative work because you're adapting and transforming it.
(Remember, there's a difference between using photos for reference and copying one!
