If my photo is "copied" through a painting, is that a legal?

Are both scenarios legal?

  • I own a photo, and someone painted a replica (using canvas and paints) and sold prints.
  • Someone altered it using Photoshop to look like a painting and sold prints.

Do I need to copyright my pictures to prevent this?
