“In this painting, I focused on creating a gentle transition from warm, golden yellows to deep reds, to capture the inner strength we often overlook. The feather's design uses delicate brushstrokes that blend seamlessly, giving it a light and floating appearance, while the splatters and drips at the edges add an element of spontaneity and resilience. By choosing these vibrant colors and energetic shapes, I wanted to inspire a sense of renewal and bravery, encouraging us to embrace new beginnings with open hearts.”
