Feather # 7 — Barn Owl

“I focused on using rich earth tones, like warm browns and soft grays, to create a sense of grounding and strength. The gentle watercolor transitions between dark and light areas represent life's continuous flow and resilience. I used delicate brushstrokes and subtle drips to capture the graceful strength of this feather, symbolizing a renewal and nurturing presence that grows quietly yet powerfully.”
