Feather # 102 — Harlequin Duck

“I chose a soft palette featuring hand-made pigment Rocky Mountain #7 to capture the gentle elegance of this feather. The blending of tranquil blues and earthy browns creates a comforting balance, with delicate transitions and wispy strokes that draw you in. Through subtle edges and splashes, I aimed for a serene stillness that invites you to simply breathe and be.”  — Shayna, August 2023
