“In this piece, I chose muted earth tones, like soft browns and greens, to capture the delicate elegance of a single feather. I used gentle transitions and layered washes to create a sense of depth and movement, with subtle splatters and edges suggesting the organic texture of nature. In painting this, I felt a quiet joy and gratitude, hoping to share a sense of calm and kindness with others.”
