“I painted this piece using Rocky Mountain #8, a hand-crafted pigment that brought warmth and a gentle, earthy tone to the feather. The soft transitions and delicate layering create a sense of lightness, as if the feather could almost float off the canvas. With careful brushstrokes, I allowed the colors to blend naturally, capturing a spirit of calm and a sense of new beginnings reflected in the gentle shapes and subtle movement.”
