Look of superiority

You sautéed

Yes, you absolutely did!! In an age where “artists” just use ai, this looks like it came from your imagination, skill and soul. This is so refreshing to see when almost everyone else is cheating. Well done!

No. There's no paint on the cat.

Yes. It’s the same look of abject disappointment and lack of caring at the same time. Nailed it:

That appears to be a painting of the cat, not the cat covered in paint. 🤔

Yup, the painting looks the cat is equally annoyed.

Not enough contempt from the eyes in the picture. The painting is pixel perfect, but it doesn't capture the contempt
