Maybe it just comes down to the difference in the edge sharpness of the actual paintings. (Duh!)
I've posted an overall shot of one of my sharper-edged paintings and then an "actual pixels" image cut out of the original overall photo (not a close-up photo).
I still see a bit more graininess in my darks compared to the one Michael posted, but the edges of the leaf closeup photo are a lot sharper than on the painting of the boy (as they are on the actual canvases).
This canvas is 30 x 40".
