Cliff Edge Over a Clockwork City (Watercolor)

Watercolor painting of a rugged cliff edge overlooking a sprawling clockwork city. Use soft wet-on-wet washes with translucent color bleeds and gentle granulation to create a dreamlike mood. The city below is a steampunk metropolis of brass, copper, and iron, filled with exposed gears, cogwheels, wind-up towers, glass domes, steam vents, and intricate bridges connecting elevated walkways. Wild grasses and moss cling to the cliff, with a weathered stone path curling toward the precipice. A peach and lavender dawn sky bathes the scene, sunlight glinting on brass edges and casting long shadows. The composition contrasts the organic cliff textures with the rigid geometry of gears and clockwork architecture, viewed from a slight low angle looking toward the city. A serene, contemplative atmosphere pervades the image, capturing the harmony of nature and machinery.
