Yes, unless you have permission from the copyright holder of the original, or an exemption in the law. For example, if you are copying a work in order to learn a technique, that use should be defensible as fair.

Is it OK to draw a celebrity and sell your drawing online?
Selling Celebrity Drawing Legality Amelia Mia Is it OK to draw a celebrity and sell your drawing online? It is generally not legal to sell a drawing of a celebrity without their permission, as it would likely be considered a violation of their right of publicity. This means that you would need to obtain a license or permission from the celebrity in order to sell your drawing. Additionally, you could be at risk of copyright infringement if you depict the celebrity in a way that is substantially similar to a copyrighted photograph or other image of the celebrity. It's best to consult with a lawyer before selling any drawing of a celebrity. My recommendations : 𝒉𝒕𝒕𝒑𝒔://𝒘𝒘𝒘.𝒅𝒊𝒈𝒊𝒔𝒕𝒐𝒓𝒆24.𝒄𝒐𝒎/𝒓𝒆𝒅𝒊𝒓/283755/𝑫𝒊𝒔𝒉𝒂7/
What does a copyright cost?
Nothing. All creative works in the US are automatically copyrighted when first physically made. There are fees to REGISTER a copyright, but registration is needed only if you anticipate a likelihood of commercial use. The "mail it to yourself" idea suggested by a couple of other posters is sometimes called a "poor mans copyright", and has no legal value whatsoever in the US. If a copyright is infringed, and the copyright is not registered, the only legal recourse is to have a court order the infringement stopped - no damages can be sought or awarded. If the copyright IS registered, then there can be damages. There's no 'in-between' area for stuff that's been mailed back to yourself. Copyright law - including 'poor mans copyright' - is addressed by the US copyright office in the link below.
