“In this painting, I chose a monochromatic palette to focus on delicate shades of black and gray, creating soft transitions and subtle contrasts. Each brushstroke blends seamlessly into the next, capturing the feather’s ethereal lightness with gentle edges and a hint of movement. As I painted, I felt a quiet connection to the natural world, hoping the piece reflects a sense of direction and togetherness.
