Leopard Among Volcanic Rocks in Oil Impasto

An oil painting of a leopard perched on jagged volcanic rocks in a steaming lava landscape. Thick impasto brushstrokes render the leopard’s spotted fur in luminous golds and browns, contrasted with dark basalt rocks that glow with molten orange reflections. The scene is bathed in warm sunset light, creating dramatic chiaroscuro and long shadows. Wisps of steam rise from cracks, distant lava glows punctuate a moody sky; the composition emphasizes texture—fur, stone, and fire—with a keen focus on the leopard's piercing eyes and poised posture.
