“In this piece, I used a palette featuring my hand-made pigment, Rocky Mountain #6, allowing the hues to dance softly between gentle earth tones and serene blues. I let the watercolor flow naturally, layering delicate washes and leaving feathery edges that suggest movement and gentle growth. This painting captures a sense of gentle renewal and calm, embodying the shifts we experience while finding quiet joy in life's simple moments.”
