Feather # 108 — Scarlet Macaw

“In this painting, I wanted to capture the vibrant spirit of a Scarlet Macaw through its feather's natural beauty. The bold reds shift gently into softer pinks with smooth transitions, while earthy browns anchor the piece with grounding, organic tones. Delicate brushstrokes and subtle blending create a sense of gentle movement, reminiscent of a feather swaying in a breeze. I think this piece has a gentle rhythm, making it a lovely choice for anyone looking to add a touch of grace and elegance to their home.”
