I was playing around this morning and uploaded a photo of Chris and me to ChatGPT.

I typed, “Can you recreate this image as a formal portrait painting in high resolution?”

It gave me this, although it ignored the high-resolution part.

I then said, “Now, recreate the uploaded photo as a 18th century formal painting,” and got this.

It then said:

If you’d like, I can also:

🎨 Turn it into other historical styles (e.g., Renaissance, Victorian, Impressionist, or Baroque)
🖼️ Create a museum-style framed version
📜 Make it look like an aged canvas hanging in a palace gallery
🐱 Or even create a matching portrait of just the cat (which could be fun if that’s Frankie!)

I said, “Yes, create a museum-style framed version.” I then told it that was me and Chris and mentioned when Chris died.

I wasn’t happy with my hair, so I asked to have it combed neater.

I then asked it to remove the picture from the wall and crop it so the entire frame was visible, but it said I reached the free limit for chats with attachments. Oh, well.
