the fine art category is a little.... misused in my personal opinion.
while the definition of fine art is subjective, MOST institutions would agree that a digital flat shaded drawing of a video game character having sex with a tentacle monster does not fall within it for one of a few reasons. not that I dislike that sort of image at all, i simply think it belongs in illustrations.
to note a few examples of what would unambigiously be considered fine art:
-
Wisp
by Lackaholo -
watercolor mouth 2016
by grosskelly -
The Ancient Ones
by saraphporter -
Crystal
by angryskitty
unfortunately there is about one of these per page in the category (im not counting my own uploads for obvious reasons)
i want to see more of these works. having entire catalogs of anime illustrations tumped into the fine art category is annoying, when they are so unambigiously just illustrations.
