Feather # 223 — Shanahan Ridge Fire

“In creating this piece, I focused on the delicate use of soft, earthy tones—gentle ochres and muted grays blend seamlessly, mimicking the natural elegance of a feather. The brushstrokes are light and airy, with intentional splatters and drips that add a sense of spontaneity and openness. I aimed to capture a feeling of balance and simplicity, which can offer a quiet sense of assurance and understanding to those who view it.”  — Shayna, May 2024
