Mandala portrait design

Prompt:

Create a hand-painted digital portrait of a young Indian man in a calm, thoughtful pose, looking slightly sideways and upward. He has thick wavy dark hair, expressive eyes, a subtle beard and mustache, and a strong cinematic facial structure. He is wearing a casual black overshirt layered over a soft white t-shirt, shown in a centered waist-up composition.

Behind his head, place a large symmetrical golden lotus and mandala halo inspired by Indian traditional art, temple motifs, spiritual ornament patterns, and vintage sacred poster design. The background should be deep maroon with rich brown tones, textured like aged handmade paper with distressed brush marks, grunge edges, and painterly canvas grain.

Use warm cinematic lighting, golden highlights on the face, realistic skin texture, expressive shadows, and detailed brush strokes. The artwork should blend realism with painterly illustration style, giving a premium cultural character poster look. Add intricate golden floral patterns around the halo, symmetrical framing, rich contrast, earthy tones, handcrafted paint texture, museum-quality composition, soulful mood, and ultra-detailed digital artwork.
