Watercolor Altar by a Looming Lava Flow

A watercolor scene on a rocky cliff at dusk: an ancient stone altar sits near a glowing lava flow. Fiery orange and crimson lava lights the scene, casting warm reflections on damp stones, while smoke and steam rise into a cool, blue-purple sky. Watercolor techniques: soft washes, wet-on-wet blending, delicate color bleeding, and a textured paper grain for a painterly look. The altar is carved with runes, surrounded by offerings of fruit and petals, a simple cloth draped over the altar. Candles burn with tiny halos of light. The lava flow curls behind the altar, its glow illuminating the scene and creating a tense, reverent mood as fire meets prayer. Composition from a slightly low angle, focus on the altar with the lava edge leading the eye toward the horizon; subtle glaze-like highlights and granulated shadows enhance the atmospheric texture.
