Parents commissioned the grandad? Sounds like they were trying to raise his self-esteem.
As an amateur artist, may I suggest a few improvements
(Reference)Looks like grandad was painting his 18th century peasant ghost girl from his nightmares instead. Easy mistake to make honestly
Victorian-era Realism was much better than this
This is just a shitty painting
Profile picture is missing an eyeball
She had to take one out after looking at this portrait.
WARNING: Do not look at
LASERportrait with remaining eye
It’s still very sweet though.
I mean, everyone is shitting on the painting, but we have no reference photo of OP at 16. We only have what little you can see in the profile photo.
It’s the same picture, I’m confused.
My dad had paid someone to draw my portrait from a graduation photo. The drawing is horribly bad. It’s also quite big and hanging on a wall at the center of the house so there’s no chance one could avoid looking at it.
The painting looks objectively shitty, and yet, somehow you can’t help but feel that the eyes are following you
These are two different pictures, though. Does nobody else see this?
Hard to tell but it looks like the same picture with pretty intense artifacting on the left to me.
Whitest peopletwitter ever
Disappointed if her username hasn’t changed to Flour.
They should’ve commissioned an artist
They should have sent a poet
Emmmm, flour chicken.
I wanna shop that painting into the office meme where Angela scares Dwight.
I think that the grandad misunderstood the commission and made a self-portrait.
