   CHALLENGE: Selfportrait of Umbohr
The Chain of Challenges, Part 7.

Portrait - RGB + Umbohr = Portrait of Umbohr.

The full title is "Selfportrait of Umbohr made by somone else than Umbohr".

[It is a quote from Weerdmeester's dislike list on 2022 Secret Santa].

You have the right to interpret this title however you like. It can simply be a portrait of Umbohr, or you can surprise us with a wacky understanding of the title, like an "inception" of meta levels of a picture of a painter painting himself, reflected in a mirror or looking at us - the "real" painter (check "Las Meninas" by Velázquez). You can also try to dive deep into science fiction with multiple universes, mulipersonality, time travel, or logical quagmires. The meaning of this challenge title is totally open for interpretation.

The result doesn't have to be a portrait, but if not, it should at least have a portrait of Umbohr as a part of it. For example, a scene with a portrait in it.

Bonus challenge: try to immitate Umbohr's style or use a palette from one of his works.

Canvas size: min 64x64, max 640x640.
Colours: max 64.
Transparency: no.
Animation: no.

A note to Umbohr:

Dear Umohr, it you wish to participate in this challenge, you have to  make "A Portrait of Someone Else than Umbohr made by Umbohr". Sorry, but this is the only way I fount it to be fair. By someone esle I mean another member of a PJ community, not just anyone ;)
