Answer :

In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

Assalaamu `alaykum waRahmatullahi Wabarakatuh
It is not permissible to draw pictures of human faces or any living creature.
(Aap ki Masā’il, vol 7 pg 68, Ludyānwi)
(Fatāwa Mahmoodiyyah, vol 19 pg 470, Farookiyyah)
(Fatāwa Rahimiyyah, vol 10 pg 146, Ishā’at)

 أن ابن عباس رضي الله عنهما قال أخبرني أبو طلحة رضي الله عنه صاحب رسول الله صلى الله عليه و سلم وكان قد شهد بدرا مع رسول الله صلى الله عليه و سلم أنه قال ( لا تدخل الملائكة بيتا فيه كلب ولا صورة ) . يريد صورة التماثيل التي فيها الأرواح
(Bukhari pg 570, Deoband)
 Rasulullah (صلى الله عليه وسلم) has mentioned: “The Angels (of mercy) do not enter a house in which there is a dog or a picture (i.e. of animate objects) 
 
عن عائشة رضي الله عنها قالت  : دخل علي النبي صلى الله عليه و سلم وفي البيت قرام فيه صور فتلون وجهه ثم تناول الستر فهتكه وقالت قال النبي صلى الله عليه و سلم ( من أشد الناس عذابا يوم القيامة الذين يصورون هذه الصور )
(Bukhari pg 902, Deoband)
Hazrat Aisha (رضي الله عنها) reports that Nabi (صلى الله عليه وسلم)came to her and in the house there was a curtain which had pictures on it. His face turned colour, he took hold of the curtain and tore it. Thereafter Nabi (صلى الله عليه وسلم) remarked: “Those who create these pictures will receive the most severe of punishments on the day of Qiyaamah”
 
 عن ابن عباس أن النبى -صلى الله عليه وسلم- قال « من صور صورة عذبه الله بها يوم القيامة حتى ينفخ فيها وليس بنافخ
(Sunan Abi Dawood pg 329,HM Saeed )
Rasulullah (صلى الله عليه وسلم) has mentioned: “Whoever creates a picture of an animate object, Allah Ta’ala will punish him on the day of Qiyaamah until he will give life to the picture, which he will be unable to do”.
However, if it is your hobby to draw pictures or a means of earning income, then the advice of Ibn Abbass
(رضي الله عنهما) is:
إن كنت لا بد فاعلا فاصنع الشجر وما لا نفس له
“If you have to draw, then draw either trees or inanimate objects”
If you adopt a Halaal means of income, Allah will grant you Barakah in that.
 
And Allah knows best
