I love everything about this. The detailing on the guy's face, how cartoonishly spooky the monster behind the door is, but really the overall texture of the canvas is what sets it apart. 10/10
For me, it's the reflection on the door and glasses, like it's coming from the flash of a camera. It's such a great unsettling detail that makes it more like a photo than a painting.
I think the monster is Barney.
