If someone is doing work for you, you get the copyright. That’s how it always worked

Yes, the artist must agree that copyright transfer is part of the agreement. By default ownership is with the artist.

Yes, in practice this would be a contract with the artist deciding whether the copyright is transferred or not.
Because by default, if you commission someone to draw something for you, they keep the copyright.
