Pen and Watercolor Photo Transformation

Using REFERENCE_0 as the sole source image, transform the scene into a freehand pen-and-ink illustration on white textured paper. Retain the original pose, composition, the positions of the suit, tie, and American flag, including the rectangle obscuring the face. Remove the photographic stage/background and replace it with a plain off-white paper. Present the subject with expressive black ink lines, bold cross-hatching, uneven hand-drawn outlines, visible watercolor washes, soft color blending, gentle navy/red tones, and slightly unfinished edges. Keep the composition close to the original midground and do not add any new objects, text, or background details.
