“In this piece, I used warm, earthy tones to paint a delicate feather, layering soft brushstrokes to create its intricate details. The fluid transitions and subtle splatters of watercolor evoke a sense of gentle movement and growth. As I painted, I felt a connection to the cycle of life, where the feather's softness offers a comforting and nurturing essence.”
