Feather # 190 — Scarlet Macaw

“In creating this piece, I focused on using deep reds and soft blues to bring warmth and tranquility to the forefront. The transitions and delicate layering of colors aim to evoke a sense of gentle guidance, as though the feather is subtly showing the way. My brushstrokes are light and playful, with splatters and drips that add movement and a touch of spontaneity, capturing a feeling of compassion and warmth.”
