Gargoyle in an Icebound Cryogenic Chamber

An oil painting of a solitary gargoyle inside a high-tech cryogenic chamber. The gargoyle is carved stone, weathered with patina and cracks, wings folded against its back, perched on a cold metal console above a frosted glass cryo pod. Frost coats glass and tubing; blue-white light from recessed lamps casts glacial reflections on chrome walls and damp stone. Thick, impasto brushstrokes render rough stone texture, chipped edges, and smoky shadows. The composition blends gothic myth with sci-fi aesthetics, evoking timeless awe as the ancient guardian seems to awaken within a frozen laboratory; mood is eerie, contemplative, and solemn.
