DUDE, CHARLES.
The glasses, the overcoat, this smug AF eyebrow? Too much. You look like an old photo of my dad’s fraternity brothers.
And, man, I get it. You’re trying to do this hipster/tortured soul thing to hang out with Gauguin. Spoiler, though, Chuck: The whole “tortured soul” thing will be quick routine should you continue to chill with Gauguin. He suuuuucks.
(Note: Charles Laval was also an artist, and friends with Gauguin, to the point they both traveled to Panama together in 1887. An earlier post describes how more than 20,000 died during the construction of the Canal…and Gauguin survived.)
