Style prompt
Use psychedelic graphic illustration with overlapping translucent color planes, bold circles, curved ribbons, and strong black focal contours. Let turquoise, coral, vermilion, magenta, violet, lime, and deep blue generate mixed hues where they intersect. Keep fine line hatching in selected textured areas while broad fields remain flat and poster-like. Build apparent light through warm-color placement rather than realistic shadow. Preserve a legible central silhouette amid dense rhythmic color.Full example prompt
A square psychedelic graphic portrait shows an older bearded man in a left-facing three-quarter view against a field of interlocking bright colors. His head occupies most of the right half, with a large round black eyeglass frame over the nearer eye. The nose projects toward the left, while a gray-white mustache and beard spread across the lower center in fine curving strands. He wears a dark jacket and a narrow pale yellow necktie below the chin. The face is not painted in natural skin tones. Translucent bands of turquoise, coral, vermilion, magenta, violet, lime, and deep blue cross the forehead, cheek, glasses, and beard, creating new colors wherever they overlap. Behind the head, broad circles and curved ribbons repeat those hues, filling the upper left and top edge. A clear black contour holds the glasses, nose, and ear together amid the color. Fine line hatching in the hair and beard gives texture to the otherwise flat poster-like shapes. At the bottom, a dark grainy patch stabilizes the bright transparent forms. Light is implied by the warm yellow and orange bands at the forehead and nose, rather than by a conventional cast shadow. The figure remains immediately recognizable although the colored layers pass through both face and background. The composition is dense and upbeat, using transparent overlap, bold circles, and a strong profile to turn a personal likeness into a lively design.
