Feather # 130 — Blue Jay

“In creating this piece, I embraced the gentle flow of watercolor to capture the feather's elegant form in shades of calming indigo and gray. The soft transitions and delicate splatters create a sense of movement, as if the feather might float off the canvas. Through subtle layering and brushwork, I aimed to convey a quiet strength, inviting viewers to pause and reflect on their own journey.”  — Shayna, November 2023
