Greek God Poseidon Rising From Stormy Sea With Trident

The Greek god Poseidon rises from a stormy sea with a raised trident, his hair and the waves echoing each other in sweeping bands of teal, cobalt and pearl beside rearing sea horses.

Prompt

A painting, clearly not a photograph: long undulating painted colour bands in visible brushwork that echo selected contours through the subject and setting, using broad flat-brushed bands rather than a distortion filter, with the large silhouettes and painted landmarks readable. Poseidon, the Greek god of the sea, rising to colossal height from a stormy ocean: a powerful bearded god with long flowing hair holding a three-pronged trident aloft, waves of every size rising and curling around his waist and the foam trailing from his arm, a team of rearing sea-horses in the surf at his side. Light: a break in the storm clouds behind him throwing silver-gold light across the crests, the waves, his hair, his beard and the clouds all echoing one sweeping rhythm of bands in deep teal, cobalt, sea-green and pearl, the trident tip catching a bright highlight; low angle at water level so the god towers over the horizon; palette of teal, cobalt, pearl, gold and slate; monumental and atmospheric, oil painting finish with visible brush edges. Wide 16:9 frame. A dignified, respectful depiction in draped or armoured dress; no readable text, inscriptions, letters or logos anywhere.
