Scattered across the map are six ruins transformed into an artist studio. At each of them, you’ll find a painting that acts as a treasure map to lead you to a generous helping of useful loot. However, the maps are pretty opaque, which can make finding the locations they are hinting at tricky.
We’ll walk you through how to find all six Devious Painting locations and how to find each map’s solution. Note that whenever you visit a Devious Painting location, you’ll need to tap Q to trigger Spacetime to reveal the easel and obtain the map for each one.
Dayton Wetlands
The painting is located at coordinates 6876, -5289, in a ruin west of Sutherland Family Orchard and southeast of the Inspection Point 7802.

The loot is found at coordinates 6485, -5775, on the banks of a river that runs into the sea to the west of the Overlook Town in the south of the Dayton Wetlands.
