“In this painting, I gently layered earthy browns and deep blues, allowing them to merge softly along the feather's spine with delicate watercolors. Each brushstroke was intentional, creating soft transitions and subtle movement that feel elegant yet grounded. As I painted, I wanted to capture how nature's simple elements can mirror the connections we share, drawing us together in a shared experience that's both personal and universal.”
