Goblin Amid Temple Ruins: An Oil Painting

An earthy goblin stands among the crumbling arches of an ancient temple, painted in oil on canvas. Warm, golden light filters through broken skylights, illuminating dust motes and mossy stones. Thick impasto brushstrokes create a rich, textured surface with dramatic chiaroscuro, in a palette of ochre, burnt sienna, olive green, and slate. The goblin has a crooked nose, sharp teeth, and glowing amber eyes, wearing tattered robes. Relics and broken statues lie scattered on the cracked stone floor as creeping vines wind around cracked columns. The atmosphere is mystical and foreboding, hinting at long-forgotten rites, captured from a low-angle, cinematic perspective with painterly detail and crackled varnish.
