Feather # 129 — American Robin

“In this painting, I poured my soul into the gentle layering of cool blues and whites, creating a soft transition that draws the eye with its quiet strength. Each brushstroke is deliberate, echoing the steady grace of life's journey, while subtle splatters and drips add texture and depth, embodying the inevitable and beautiful marks we gather with time. Through this piece, I wanted to capture how enduring challenges and nurturing others leaves an imprint, much like the resilient and feathered form that stands at the center.”
