Feather # 140 — Peacock

“In this piece, I embraced the rich, earthy greens and subtle browns, letting them flow together with smooth brushstrokes and delicate splatters. The way the feather curves and spreads, with its soft, blurred edges transitioning into gentle drips, captures a sense of growth and new beginnings. As I painted, I felt a quiet confidence, knowing that each layered stroke whispered of vitality and the endless cycles of nature.”
