Painting an image doesn't mean 'idolization' in any way, shape or form unless I suppose you're member of the oppressive Pharisee class who extract the sweetest pleasure from burdening people with their slimy bull and authoritism.
Also, I bet there are thousands of people who have died for drawing or painting Mohammed, or accidentally burping his name, or standing on a crack in the pavement that vaguely spelt his name.
A quick Google search brought this up. I don't know if this is true - but it sounds completely believable from my own experience.
