Feather # 142 — Magpie

“In creating this painting, I embraced the gentle dance of blues and greens, letting them flow effortlessly into one another, capturing the ethereal quality of a feather. With each brushstroke, I layered delicate washes that blend into a soft edge, while the specks and drips add a playful spontaneity, bringing life and movement to the piece. My intent was to craft a moment that invites you to pause, feel, and experience an intimate moment of quiet beauty.”  — Shayna, November 2023
