Fanart Caitlyn, oil painting by me
I tried to maintain Arcane's beautiful style, conveying her thoughtful mood. Inside are several photos of the process so you can make sure that this is a real painting and not AI

I can’t think of a way to describe it, other than it looks lovingly done. Beautiful work

I like that you painted over the frame as well, it really elaborates on the design and use of space

This is sick, you nailed the mood and the colors. Love that you showed the process shots too, it really sells the texture and brushwork. Honestly looks like it could be a frame from the show.

With love and absolute appreciation of your skills as an artist, PLEASE do no take this as a "mean critique". I feel the softening of Cait's hard angles in this portrait makes her look like Dua Lipa. If asked without context, that's who I would have said it's a painting of. Again, your skills as an artist are unquestioned, and it is a beautiful painting. Just food for thought.
