Im a beginner, started drawing digitally somewhat recently. I started using Pinterest for references like poses or clothing and its been mostly useful but right now ive had 2 drawings tainted by the fact that the reference I was using is ai. The have a small ass watermark at the bottom right but I just never notice it. When I realize its ai I delete it and try to continue drawing without the reference but at that point it still had a affect on the piece. I dont know what to do and how to feel about this. One of those drawings ive finished but the other one im working on right now and I dont know if I should even continue it because of this. Like, I know I drew this myself so its art but it still hurts
