Wizard on a Wind-Swept Rocky Outcrop

An oil painting of a majestic wizard on a windswept rocky outcrop above crashing surf. Thick impasto brushstrokes and dramatic chiaroscuro render warm sunset gold against stormy blues. The wizard wears a flowing midnight-blue robe with silver runes, a tattered cloak, and a gnarled staff topped with a pulsing crystal. Energetic wisps of magic swirl around him as gusts whip his hair and cloak. Jagged rocks jut from the cliff as foamy sea spray erupts, and dark storm clouds brood overhead. The composition uses a low-angle three-quarter view to heighten grandeur, with painterly textures and layered glazes to evoke an epic fantasy mood reminiscent of old master oil paintings.
