Chef in a Dim Warehouse: An Oil Painting Scene

An oil painting of a chef in a vast warehouse. A tall chef in a white uniform and apron stands at a wooden prep table, chopping herbs as copper pots glint from the background. Around him are stacked crates, wooden pallets, sacks of flour, and exposed steel beams. Warm amber light from hanging Edison bulbs casts long, dramatic shadows in painterly chiaroscuro, with thick impasto brushstrokes and rich, earthy tones. The atmosphere blends culinary craft with industrial grit, captured in a textured, studio-like oil painting style.
