“I chose soft, earthy tones to bring life to the feather, using gentle washes of green and brown to create a natural harmony. The delicate layering and subtle transitions between colors capture the essence of a gentle breeze, while the playful splatters and drips suggest freedom and movement. My brushstrokes are both careful and flowing, reflecting life's cycles, hinting at beginnings and the gentle assurance found in nature's embrace.”
