Feather # 107 — Royal Flycatcher

“In this painting, I used my hand-made pigment, Rocky Mountain #7, to create a vivid contrast between fiery orange and calming gray. The brushstrokes flow like a gentle breeze, with delicate edges and subtle splatters that add a touch of spontaneity. As I painted each layer, I felt a quiet strength rising—a feeling that encourages looking inward and embracing the beauty of transformation.”  — Shayna, September 2023
