Minotaur's Gaze

This is a close-up, head-on portrait of a powerful, humanoid creature with bovine features, strongly resembling a minotaur. Its face is heavily lined, suggesting age and strength, with a prominent brow and a short, pointed beard. Large, curved horns emerge from its head, with what appears to be metallic bands or caps near their bases. The creature has shaggy, light-colored hair and prominent, pointed ears. Its most striking feature is its eyes, which glow with an intense, fiery orange or yellow light, conveying a sense of intensity and perhaps menace. The background is dark and moody, with a subtle gradient of deep blues and greens, emphasizing the subject.
