I don't think it's ai, simply going by op's history. An imbalance of skill maybe, but not ai. It's sad that we have to even speculate :(

I don't think this is AI art. Perhaps the background, but if you zoom in on particular parts of the image and are a digital artist yourself you can very clearly see the "brush" strokes. The hand especially gives it away, cos I would be really impressed if AI could replicate the look of amateur smudge-and-airbrush-tool use. The crosshatching in the sweater is also too sloppy to be a robot. AI art is typically super smooth and blended, and any lines are really crisp until encountering a spliced area, where the line again just becomes super blended out. Handmade art can achieve the same look, but AI can't achieve the same look as handmade.

Could you give me the link ?

It does look like it but there’s timelapse videos of the paintings he does so this is real

I think this is AI art.

"AI art, making shit aestetic since 2022"

That was my first impression as well. A whole bunch of minor things that add up to it not looking fully right.

Edit: Did some quick digging and found a WIP so is hard to say.

definitely AI, since an artist with skill to draw the subject matter would never settle for such an atrocious background and poor overall composition.

These AI bros can always make the AI take other artists skill and make a single subject look good, but they lack the eye for composition that comes with the craft.

Yeah, but chonky geometry and rough edges can be a part of an artstyle.

looks like it to me too

The best representation of winter being a favorite season

Gorgeous perspective. Well done

There is a serious perspective gaffe and a minor one, too. The subject's left arm is at an impossible perspective compared to the cat's belly. Also the cat's right arm is disjointed where it's obscured by the subjects left arm.

Amazing, did you work from a photo?

yea it looks funky. almost like they picked up a statue of a cat

Stylistically this is gorgeous, and I hope I get to see more animated movies in your style.

One question I have is why is the fence/house crooked in the background? Is that an intentional choice? If so, why?

Also, I love the blurred trees background. Again, very stylish.

I think this is AI art because the arm goes in front of the cat then comes out behind it.

​

Edit : other perspective mistake : the fence on the right goes behind the back fence at the its top, and in front of it lower.
