Cheetah in a Watercolor Oasis

Watercolor painting of a cheetah in an oasis. A serene desert oasis with a turquoise pool, emerald palm trees, and soft grasses. The cheetah sits at the water's edge with a graceful, poised stance, its fur a warm blend of golden yellows and ochres dotted with black spots. Rendered in loose, translucent watercolor washes using wet-on-wet technique on textured watercolor paper to achieve soft edges and natural color bleed. Capture golden-hour light: long shadows, sparkling reflections on the water, and a gentle mist at the surface. Background hints of distant dunes under a pale blue sky. Mood: a vivid harmony of speed and calm, energy and serenity.
