“In creating this piece, I embraced the earthy tones brought to life with my hand-made Rocky Mountain #8 pigment. The gentle transitions and soft blends are achieved through delicate layering and a variety of brushstroke techniques, allowing the feather's form to breathe. Splashes and drips add a sense of spontaneity, inviting the viewer to find personal stories within the flowing movement—much like how we sometimes find our own in nature’s gentle whispers.”
