I used to draw ladies and model's faces from magazines when I was in my late teens, trying to get near perfect copies just for the enjoyment of seeing how exact I could be. But it's boring as you get older! After a while, you move on to other things and sketch real life. But being Jodi Arias - these are likely lies just like everything else! She probably did basically trace them if her paper is thin enough or she's very strong back-lighting under the original and her paper.
I saw something on Twitter about her sketch of Liz Taylor but when I clicked on it, couldn't see any sketch of Liz - just a nondescript woman's face. Her artwork is quite technical in nature and cold. Looks computer generated or something. It doesn't really have a natural flow to it somehow. Still, some do naturally draw that way but it's off-putting. Seems to have absolutely no emotion to it.
