“In this piece, I carefully mixed soft browns and deep grays with the delicate touch of watercolor to create a feather that feels both gentle and powerful. The smooth transitions between light and dark areas, coupled with a few intentional splatters, suggest a sense of emergence and movement. As I painted the tiny bee hovering nearby, I aimed to capture a moment where nature speaks to resilience and the quiet strength found in moments of change.”
