Watercolor Pilot in an Ice Cave

Watercolor illustration of a lone pilot inside an ice cave. The pilot wears a vintage brown leather flight jacket with a fur collar, a weathered scarf, and aviator goggles resting on his cap. He stands beside a small vintage propeller plane half-buried in snow and ice. The cave walls are deep blue and translucent, with hanging icicles, frost textures, and delicate refractions. Pale light filters through the icy ceiling, casting soft blue-white washes, subtle color bleeds, and grainy texture across the scene. The painterly technique should mimic wet-on-wet watercolor: soft edges, gentle transitions, and luminous glazes. Include details such as frost on the goggles, footprints in the snow, a compass peeking from a pocket, and breath fog curling in the cold air. The composition places the pilot off-center, looking toward a distant glow at the cave mouth as the ice recedes into the background. Overall mood is solitary and hopeful, with a dreamlike, adventurous quality.
