“In this painting, I chose to use soft blues and greens to create a calming feather, with gentle transitions and delicate layers that reflect the ease and elegance of nature. My brushstrokes are subtle and carefully placed, allowing the colors to blend seamlessly and the edges to remain soft, inviting a sense of warmth and comfort. The splashes of pink add a dynamic contrast, creating a focal point that feels both fresh and reassuring, much like a quiet morning or a gentle breeze inviting you to pause and breathe deeply.”
