Watercolor painting of a Magpie feather.

Feather # 145 — Magpie

“I'm thrilled to share the thought process behind this piece. I delicately layered deep blues and soft grays, letting them transition naturally across the feather, capturing its elegance and movement with gentle brush strokes and splatters. I intentionally let the edges remain a bit raw, creating a visual tension that speaks to overcoming challenges while embracing a sense of balance.”
