It's more of a paradox. Let's say I wanted to draw a grasshopper. So I go onto Google Images, and search for an image of a grasshopper. I print the best photo of the grasshopper. If I use my photo off of the image of the grasshopper I printed as a reference, am I drawing a portrait of that grasshopper?

"a painting, drawing, photograph, or engraving of a person, especially one depicting only the face or head and shoulders." - Definition of Portrait

It's not a person, so no.

A portrait is usually a human being, and just the upper half of the person basically. Otherwise, I guess you could say it's a portrait.

The definition of a portrait doesn't have to always be a person. In my sense, I'm asking if I'm basically drawing a photo of the EXACT SAME grasshopper.

"The definition of a portrait doesn't have to always be a person."

I challenge you to look up "portrait" in Google images, and don't stop scrolling until you find anything other than a human face.

@skeletal

Yes, but I'm using "portrait" in my own sense, which is an illustration of any living being, not specifically a human being.

Although portraits are mainly upper half pictures of human beings, I understand that they can be a picture of any living thing. However, an image of a grasshopper would rather be considered something else other than a portrait.
