A hyper- detailed psychedelic digital painting featuring a man resembling Michael Stipe from R. E. M. with his head ((tilted back)) and his eyes closed in serene contemplation. He wears a sharp and twisted crown of thorns atop his head, silhouetted dramatically against a vibrant, radiant background of fiery oranges and deep reds. His facial features are sharp and angular, with a well- defined beard and textured skin. The face and neck are adorned with intricate, swirling psychedelic patterns in vivid electric blues, deep purples, and fiery reds, seamlessly blending into his skin. The beard and hair are detailed and natural, with subtle highlights adding dimension. The background glows with an intense, almost celestial warmth, radiating outward in smooth gradients that resemble a spiritual aura. The lighting is cinematic and divine, emphasizing the facial details and creating a contrast between light and shadow. Inspired by Alex Grey's visionary art style, this piece captures surreal realism, emotional intensity, and spiritual transcendence. Ultra- detailed, hyper- vibrant colors, 8K resolution, expressive emotion, and ethereal lighting
