Feather # 90 — Peacock

“In this painting, I used a soft palette of earthy browns and warm golds, which gently flow into one another to create a sense of gentle growth. The brushstrokes are delicate yet deliberate, forming a feather that seems to reach outward and upward, splaying with subtle movement. With every layered hue and shape, I aimed to capture a moment of quiet realization, like watching something bloom slowly under the sun’s tender touch.”
