The amount of time it took him is directly relevant to how fast his hand moves. It took zero planning, zero effort, and zero experimentation. That's not creation, and it's hard to convince me it's even art when the case falls to directly tracing an image because then you have to say every second grader who puts tracing paper over a picture of the Mona Lisa is a thoughtful artist, rather than just getting their toes wet. Art isn't just the lines on the page, whether it's fanart or original.
