“I poured my heart into this piece, crafting each hue with the hand-made pigment Rocky Mountain #7. The gentle browns and soft golds transition smoothly across the feather, while the subtle splatters and drips add a touch of spontaneity. As I painted, I felt a calm surrender in the movement of the brush, each stroke a quiet offering, evoking a sense of enduring beauty and quiet strength.”
