Feather # 183 — Peacock

“I wanted to capture the essence of transformation and endurance in this painting. By using the hand-made pigment Rocky Mountain #5, I blended deep blues and greens with soft yellows to give the feather a sense of resilience and elegance. The delicate brushstrokes and playful splatters suggest movement and the potential for new beginnings, encouraging the viewer to embrace their inner strength.”  — Shayna, February 2024
