Feather # 72 — Great Horned Owl

“In this piece, I embraced a muted palette of soft browns, warm yellows, and deep blacks to capture the delicate essence of a feather. I focused on creating seamless transitions with gentle brushstrokes and subtle layering to highlight the feather's intricate details. The interplay of the feather’s structured lines and organic splatters adds a sense of calm and unity, inviting the viewer to pause and appreciate its simple beauty.”  — Shayna, May 2023
