  What makes it low quality? I’ve seen some shittier hand painted art.

  I get the objection to it being AI generated, but I can’t place exactly what stood out as low quality…

    I think there’s more low quality than just the basic print with all the wrinkles and creases in it. For once the head is “painted” realistically, the shirt is another style and then the hands and legs are yet another style. There’s some obvious AI artifacts and it didn’t fool people, seems they were able to tell.

    And then with most of art there’s some layers to it. It’d have a deeper meaning, tell us something about the people depicted, or society at times. Or there’s an entire interesting story about the artist, what kind of struggles they had… And I don’t think there’s any of that with this picture. That’s just the “empty plate” in-your-face meaning. Some children don’t have food. But doesn’t seem to me like it tells more to the audience in itself.
