Feather # 194 — Blue Jay

“I gently layered handmade Rocky Mountain #6 pigments to create this piece, blending soft greens and blues with warm, earthy tones. The feather's edges are delicately defined, yet they flow into each other with a seamless transition, giving a sense of calm movement. As I painted, I felt a deep sense of contentment, imagining the gentle drift of the feather inspiring a quiet appreciation for life's simple, beautiful moments.”  — Shayna, February 2024
