Santa making heart hand gesture portrait

A dynamic, warm portrait of Santa renders him in a modern minimal 3D-illustration blend, placed on the right side of the frame from mid-torso upward, with big, expressive eye contact and a delighted grin as he forms a large heart shape with both hands in front of his chest, fingers meeting cleanly to create a clear silhouette. His red coat and hat with simplified plush white fur trim feel graphic and tidy, and his gloves are a deep, muted green that stands out crisply against the background. The left two-thirds and upper region of the image are reserved for copy space: a smooth, calm gradient shifting from creamy white near Santa to a muted rose and soft peach toward the far left, with only the faintest suggestion of oversized, transparent circles to hint at festive glow without creating clutter. Soft, warm lighting from the upper left gently sculpts his cheeks, beard, and the arc of his heart-shaped hands, while subtle cooler fill from the right keeps shadows velvety and never harsh. The composition emphasizes Santa’s gesture as if he is sending affection straight to the viewer, while the large, open background remains low-detail and completely free of logos, patterns, or readable text, making it ideal for future headlines and captions.
