“I chose a muted palette of deep green and soft gray to delicately shape the feather, adding subtle splashes of bright blue to draw the eye and add a touch of spontaneity. The gentle blend and fluid transitions reflect a sense of ease, while the confident bold strokes define the feather's form, embodying quiet strength. Through layering and controlled splatters, I wanted to capture the grace found in resilience and the gentle assurance that comes from being true to oneself.”
