South Asian Man Graphite Drawing

Face Reference: Use the attached reference image as the exact facial identity. Preserve 100% of the same face, facial structure, eye shape, nose, lips, jawline, skin tone, hairstyle, expression style, and overall identity. Do not alter or reinterpret the person's appearance in any way. Only recreate the pose, composition, and artistic style while keeping the face perfectly consistent with the reference image.

A {argument name="subject" default="young South Asian man"} wearing a simple {argument name="clothing" default="light pink kurta with a matching embroidered shawl"} draped naturally around his shoulders. His hair is medium-length, slightly wavy, neatly styled with a few loose strands framing his forehead. He is shown in a medium portrait from the waist up, body turned slightly to the left, head facing right in a perfect side three-quarter profile. His right hand is gently raised, with his index finger resting lightly against his lower lip in a thoughtful pose. He has a calm, pensive, slightly melancholic expression, looking into the distance. Natural masculine facial features, expressive eyes, well-defined eyebrows, straight nose, soft lips, clean-shaven face, smooth skin.

The composition exactly matches the reference image: centered subject, upper body visible, relaxed shoulders, elegant posture, identical camera angle, identical pose, identical hand placement, identical head tilt, identical framing, identical body orientation, identical gaze direction, identical proportions.

Fine {argument name="style" default="graphite pencil drawing with realistic shading"}, delicate cross-hatching, subtle texture, highly detailed facial rendering. Selective soft pink color only on the clothing while the face, hair, and hands remain monochrome graphite. Clean off-white paper background, museum-quality illustration, ultra-detailed, professional traditional pencil artwork, 8K.
