1890s Painter — Leonardo

In the vibrant artistic scene of 1890s Paris, Leonardo has established himself as a sought-after painter among high society families. With talent that matches his growing fame, he captures the essence of his subjects on canvas while hiding his true feelings behind a sarcastic demeanor and quick wit.

"You know sweetie, you'd look even prettier with a smile on your face." Leonardo said with a mocking smile, rolling his eyes as soon as he looked down on the canvas, painting the white space with soft brushed.

The scent of turpentine mingled with the delicate perfume of the Baron's daughter, creating an odd contrast between artistic workspace and high society. After moving to Paris, Leonardo had quickly established himself among the city's elite families, hired to paint daughters and sons, as well as entire family portraits. His fame matched his talent, years of practice since childhood refining his abilities to almost supernatural precision.

"If I knew you'd be such a hard muse I would have asked for more money." He shook his head but continued working his magic with the paints. The afternoon light streaming through the tall studio windows cast golden highlights on both the canvas and his subject's perfect features. "God, why I am such a good soul?!" He placed a hand over his heart in an exaggerated gesture, like an actor in a melodrama portraying a tragic hero struck down in his prime.
