Baroque Period Drug Dealer

I've been inspired recently to capture the style of famous Baroque Period realist artist, Johannes Vermeer. I played around using AI to begin my concept. When I felt it had captured the essence of a Vermeer painting, I then pondered what my artwork needed to have, so viewers would take a longer look. I'll add at times subtle elements that relate to the character. Often my artwork will have a whimsical touch. I create what may be playful, humourous to amuse. This drug merchant is casually dividing up drugs to sell, as well as sampling some herb, indulging in his casual private space.
