“In this piece, I used deep blues and greens, letting them softly wash into each other to create a serene yet powerful feather that stands out against the clean, white background. The delicate splatters and subtle drips capture a sense of freedom and the support of a journey's path, conveying the feeling that something bigger is at work. I layered the colors with precision, using soft brushstrokes to emphasize the natural texture and direction, creating a feeling of gentle guidance and nurtured strength.”
