He’s allowed to copyright it as a collage, just not claim ownership to the source images.
When you say a painting from a sketch, what do you mean? Is it a sketch from another artist? If so, you can still copyright the painting, you just can’t claim ownership of the sketch, because you didn’t make it.

Well if the sketch was made by the artist then no you can't, and if the sketch wasn't then the copyright board has a right to know, and he didn't disclose the original image.
