Copyright

Are there any copywrite restrictions to using licensed stock photos for tracing to use in surface pattern design, for instance, say tracing a fish from a photo then using that tracing to make a pattern design?

The Stock License Agreement allows you to alter the original asset to utilize it in your designs.

There are licence restrictions on the use of the assets, but you can modify the assets in a very wide range, without any issues.
