Orc in a Sandstorm: An Oil Painting

An imposing orc with green skin and prominent tusks stands in a raging desert sandstorm. He wears battered bronze armor and a tattered cloak, muscles tensed as wind-whipped sand swirls around him. Painted in rich oil-on-canvas with thick impasto and visible brushstrokes, the scene uses warm ochre, burnt umber, and golden highlights. Dramatic chiaroscuro with a low sun piercing through storm clouds casts sharp shadows on the orc's rugged face. Dunes blur in the background while dust roils in the air, conveying motion, grit, and epic fantasy atmosphere.
