Feather # 225 — Macaw

“As I painted this piece, I focused on using deep blues and vibrant yellows to create a sense of energy and movement across the feather. The delicate transitions and layering in the watercolor give it a soft yet dynamic quality, while the splatters and drips add an element of spontaneity. The way the colors merge and flow embodies the idea of growth and new beginnings, bringing a feeling of endless possibilities.”
