Specter Drifting Above Cloudscape

An ethereal specter floats above a sea of soft, cottony clouds, painted in oil on canvas. The translucent figure wears flowing, tattered robes, their face pale with hollow eyes and a gentle inner glow. Surrounding clouds swirl with loose, expressive brushstrokes and subtle impasto on the cloud edges. Chiaroscuro lighting with warm, golden highlights from a hidden sun against cool blue-gray shadows. A dreamlike, atmospheric mood achieved with old-master glazing techniques, muted palette of silvery blues, lavender, ivory, and pale rose. The composition suggests the specter drifting serenely through the mist, with a hazy horizon blurred by clouds.
