Fun comic patterns from portraits

Take the provided photo reference and transform the subject into a stylized, seamless illustrated pattern. Mimic the exact art style of a retro comic-inspired, warped cartoon texture — bold black outlines, flat cartoon neon colors x dark background color palette, halftone shading, thick linework, and surreal liquid distortions. Recreate the subject’s face in various warped, stretched, melted, and twisted expressions, all with a smug, sleepy, or sarcastic look, similar to a vintage Garfield comic. Layout the faces in a tightly packed, organic pattern — no background objects, no body, just the distorted heads of the person or character. Fill the frame with the faces in different shapes and angles, separated by gooey, wavy liquid borders that give the piece a psychedelic, absurd, and humorous tone. Keep the colors simple and bold: primarily neon tones (only one shade of the color spectrum per generation, bright and saturated) for the face, dark tones for the background, and no gradients or realistic shading — only flat colors and comic textures. The goal is to convert the subject into a funky, hand-drawn comic version of themselves.
