Ninja at Eclipse: A Watercolor Moment

A solitary ninja in a flowing midnight-black cloak stands on a weathered stone bridge in a misty Japanese garden as a solar eclipse unfolds above. The scene is rendered in watercolor with wet-on-wet washes, soft bleeds, and delicate grainy paper texture. The sky shifts from deep indigo to pale lavender, and a dramatic corona halo surrounds the darkened sun. The ninja’s silhouette is crisp against the luminous halo, a katana sheathed at his side, moonlit highlights catching on the fabric. Cherry blossoms drift, their petals blurred by brushstrokes, while koi reflect in a rippled pond beneath the bridge. The image evokes quiet tension and awe at the fleeting moment when daylight yields to night in a watercolor dream.
