Feather # 88 — American Robin

“In this piece, I chose soft, earthy tones to create a sense of calm and balance. The gentle transition from warm browns to subtle grays is achieved with careful layering and fluid brushstrokes, allowing the colors to bleed into one another naturally. The delicate splatters and light drips guide the eye gently across the canvas, inviting quiet reflection and personal insight. My intent is for the viewer to feel a connection to their inner flow, as if they're being gently led by an unseen hand.
