Feather # 114 — Blue Jay

“I poured my heart into this painting, using vibrant blues and earthy browns made from my special hand-made pigment, Rocky Mountain #6. The subtle transitions and delicate blend in the feather's shape dance with a sense of purpose, while the fine brushstrokes and gentle splatters tell a story of resilience and the journey forward. Each layer holds a piece of my belief in transformation and the quiet strength we all carry within.”  — Shayna, September 2023
