Rembrandt




I always was told I look more like Rembrandt, but John is right about the dress.

I think the "looking off" away from the viewer is less confrontational and less engaging to the viewer. Figurative work that is not "purely" a portrait often does this. Most people would be hard pressed to say what is the difference between portrait and a figure paintiing. It's almost like the difference between naked and nude... but this is another subject.
