Thunderbird in the Dungeon: An Oil Painting

An enormous thunderbird, a mythic bird of storms, with electric-blue and molten-gold plumage, perched on a jagged stone ledge inside a damp medieval dungeon. Rendered in lush oil-painting style with thick impasto, rich textures, and dramatic chiaroscuro. Torchlight flickers along mossy walls, arched ceilings, and iron shackles, while lightning crackles around the bird's wings, illuminating its fierce eyes. The scene exudes awe and menace, a dark fantasy tableau.
