“In creating this piece, I used warm earth tones like rich browns and soft oranges, blending them gently to form the intricate textures of the feather. The delicate transitions between colors invite a sense of movement and fluidity, while the soft splatters and drips add an organic touch. Through the gentle layering and feather-like brushstrokes, I aimed to capture a moment of gentle strength, crafting a visual story that feels quietly noble and reassuring.”
