“I used gentle browns and earthy tones, rich with my hand-made Rocky Mountain #5 pigment, to bring this feather to life. The delicate transitions and layers create a sense of movement, as if it's caught in a gentle breeze, while the splatters and drips add spontaneity and energy. As I painted, I felt a quiet strength and a shift, capturing a moment of beauty and potential.”
