This photo is 10+ years old, taken at the New York Presbyterian medical clinic. I wanted to make a faux #Rembrandt.

A timeless, painterly portrait of an elderly man with a long white beard and black brimmed hat, seated thoughtfully in a wooden chair. He wears a heavy dark coat that dissolves into deep shadows, his weathered hands resting quietly on his knee and the chair frame. The soft, warm ivory background and gentle chiaroscuro evoke the solemn intimacy of an Old Master oil painting.

A drawing of Saint Yves of Kermartin. Pen and ink.
I drew this using my fountain pen and used a dip pen for white highlights.

A dramatic Baroque-style oil portrait of an English Bulldog dressed as a wealthy 17th-century aristocratic gentleman. The bulldog sits upright in an ornate carved wooden chair upholstered in deep burgundy velvet, wearing a curled white powdered wig, a midnight-blue velvet coat with gold embroidery, lace cuffs, a lace cravat, pearl-like buttons, and a decorative sash. His wrinkled face, heavy jowls, and solemn expression make him look comically dignified and mildly displeased. One paw rests on the chair arm while the other holds a rolled parchment sealed with a red wax paw-print. Beside him are lit candles, antique books, a silver box, and a small gold bowl filled with dog biscuits. Behind him, crimson drapes, marble columns, gilded details, and an arched window reveal a stormy moonlit landscape with a distant glowing estate. The image uses deep shadows, warm candlelight, rich jewel tones, and old-master brushwork for a regal, whimsical, surreal museum-portrait effect.
