On my first block shade that I just finished, (finally!) well guess what happened. Welp, I can't delete the background image. Because, you know how you do block shades?

1. You get a picture from the web
2. You use the eyedropper to get the right color
3. You do circles until it's finished.
4. You delete the image behind the circles.

Now, when I try to click on the image behind, apparently it's part of the circles now. So if I delete, it deletes all the block shades too.

What should I do?

The following are what I could think of:
1. It is grouped. Try selecting all of it and if there is a button that is not faded called ‘Ungroup’, click that.
2. It is in bitmap. If it is bitmap, it is stuck there forever. You can try erasing around the blockshade, though.

If it's in bitmap, sorry. There's really nothing you can do there.

unfortunately, it looks like you forgot to convert to vector. Nothing you can do

Thanks for your responses!
It looks like I did some of it in bit map, I will make sure to make it vector next time!
