A dramatic black and white illustration showing Santa Claus with arms outstretched wide to the sides in an all-encompassing welcoming gesture, his face radiating warmth with eyes looking slightly upward and a broad genuine smile visible through his magnificent beard. The figure features bold contrasts with deep black shadows and bright white highlights creating a painterly, textured effect. His luxurious white beard flows in textured waves and his fur-trimmed suit shows rich detail through expressive brushstrokes and atmospheric splatter effects. Surrounding him in a circular halo pattern, various sizes of stylized stars including elaborate ten-pointed stars, simple twinkles, asterisk shapes, and intricate snowflake designs create an embracing cosmic frame. The artwork uses a gritty, high-contrast ink wash technique with organic edges and deliberate paint splatter details forming a subtle arc beneath the figure. The composition is centered with the figure dominating the middle canvas space, creating an encompassing welcoming energy. The design is print-ready, fully isolated on a white background with no shadows or textures, fully contained within canvas boundaries with no cut-off elements and proper margins around all elements, and intended for use in t-shirt printing. | PODspy AI Design
