Feather # 92 — Spoonbill

“I chose soft browns and golden hues to create a warm, organic feel, blending them gently with wispy brushstrokes that hint at movement and life. The layering is delicate, allowing the texture to form naturally, while the splatters and drips around the edges invite a sense of spontaneity and discovery. With each purposeful stroke, I hope to guide the viewer toward moments of recognition and understanding, celebrating the beauty in simplicity.”  — Shayna, July 2023
