Someone else has already mentioned the artist. That is not a real excuse (and would definitely not hold up in court), you could reverse image search or just choose a picture that you know the source of AND ask the creator for consent beforehand.
The internet (or Pinterest) is never the actual source, and trying to find the artist and using their work the legal way is not something only a superhero could manage to accomplish.
It is so incredibly easy to find information online (especially with a bit of practice), thereās hundreds of tutorials and guides on how to do it out there. So if someone just really, really have to use art from an unknown source instead of a known one, itās their obligation to do some research and get consent from the creator, otherwise it is theft. And encouraging others with a contest to copy that art work without consent from the artist is even worse, itās now much bigger scale than just one person copying something, and the evidence is all over this thread in writing.
Maybe research intellectual property and copyright a bit, you could start by watching a video about how Disney or nintendo regularly use lawsuits to protect their IP.
(I actually think that stealing from big corporations is totally valid and should be done more because of capitalism etc. but stealing from a single individual or a small company is very unethical since it hurts them much more. Itās just very easy to comprehend the whole issue if you research those two companies.)

1 possibility of who the author might be is Naiomi Lord on Facebook. If you search with Google lense thatās one of the images that comes up. IN her post she says she cant wait to finish the rest of her gemstone dragons which suggests she might have created it.

I did some more research and based on the art style and the fact that itās on her Facebook page, Naiomi Lord Art(thatās her account name) looks like she could very possibly be the artist

One question . Have u ever used picture,diagrams and drawings from the internet to make presentations for school?

Not really, but when I did I referenced the sources, thatās one of the most important things to do in essays and other school work. Not really relevant though since thatās more for personal use.
Iām really glad that the OP learned something and said sorry and I have absolutely no problem with them.
But someone else implying that art from the internet is hard to find the source of so why even bother pisses me off. Thatās just lazy, no one is entitled to use some one elseās work in any way they want for free just because itās on the internet.

ok yes the author said sheās sry. If she wants to start it again she will ask permission. We donāt really need more on this subject.
YOu helped us learn something and thank you for that but nothing more is really necessary. Pls donāt take this as rude, it just pisses me off when people keep talking about something when someone has already apologized.
Pls donāt take this as rude, I have absolutely no problem with you and I hope you donāt feel this is rude. If you feel it is pls DM me and we can chat there.
Have a great day!

I agree with @CountryGirlForever for me it sounded rude but u probably donāt mean it that way . And I usually react that way when people keep sending messages about the same thing over and over again but I agree I didnāt think enough before sending my message .
