Detective on a Glacier: Watercolor Mystery

A moody detective in a classic trench coat and fedora stands on a vast arctic glacier, studying frost-covered clues. The scene is painted in watercolor: soft washes of blue, turquoise, and lavender with visible color bleeds and granulation. Wind-swept snow swirls around; distant crevasses run through the ice; pale aurora or cold pink dusk light touches the horizon. The detective is positioned on the left third of the frame, eyes fixed on the ice, a faint lantern glow reflecting off the surface. Brushwork is loose and expressive, edges bleed into snow to create a dreamlike noir mood, with wet-on-wet textures, delicate ice crystals, and a cinematic sense of isolation and discovery.
