Watercolor painting of a Raven feather.

Feather # 138 — Raven

“In this piece, I used the hand-made Rocky Mountain #10 pigment to create rich, deep blues and soft grays, capturing a sense of depth and subtle elegance. The feather's flowing shape and gradual transitions between light and shadow create a gentle, protective presence, while the purposeful splatters and drips suggest wisdom through quiet strength. My brushstrokes are fluid yet deliberate, symbolizing the delicate balance between fragility and resilience, evoking feelings of comfort and support.”
