Feather # 198 — Magpie Tailfeather

“In creating this painting, I carefully chose deep blues and vibrant greens to flow seamlessly together, allowing their natural transitions to speak softly yet boldly. The gentle layering technique mixed with controlled splatters and delicate drips brings out a sense of forward motion, much like a feather caught in a breeze. Each brushstroke was placed with intention, balancing the delicate edges to bring about a sense of focus and direction in the work.”  — Shayna, March 2024
