Observations
Across all four renders, recognizable landscapes and creatures are built from heavily textured, visibly worked paint, with broad scraped marks and layered surfaces. The style combines saturated orange, red, teal, and blue with deep shadow, stark silhouettes, glowing circular moons, and simplified surreal forms.
