Paparazzi

Elderly man with unkempt, wispy white hair and highly exaggerated facial features, featuring oversized, bulging eyes, an elongated, prominent nose, and an overly wide, toothy grin. His pale, heavily wrinkled skin adds to the comically grotesque appearance. Hunched over and dressed in a loose-fitting, blue and white striped shirt with buttons undone, he peers intently at the viewer. The man firmly grasps a large, vintage camera mounted atop a sturdy, wooden tripod, its lens pointed directly forward. A warm, textured, beige background with visible patches of peeling paint surrounds him, amplifying the quirky, humorous ambiance. Think Jean Giraud's Moebius meets Robert Crumb's caricature style with touches of Hayao Miyazaki's whimsy and a dash of Quentin Blake's expressive illustration.
