Is it permissible to delete an Instagram drawing account due to an intention of competition and challenge with another female artist, and then start anew, or is it permissible to continue with the current account with the intention of publishing drawings and gaining followers, knowing that no animate beings are drawn? And is it permissible to follow accounts that draw animate beings for the purpose of inspiration or merely out of admiration for the drawing?
The default is the permissibility of your use of the account, and what you mentioned does not necessitate its deletion. Looking at pictures of living beings is not forbidden according to a group of scholars, and therefore there is no objection to adding accounts that publish drawings of living beings.
