Feather # 204 — Canary

“In this watercolor inspired by a Canary bird, the vibrant yellows blend seamlessly into soft browns, creating a dynamic feather shape. I used gentle brushstrokes for the delicate edges, layering shades to capture the light's play on the surface. The splatters add an organic feel, while the movement of the lines suggests freedom and grace.

The feather's luminosity reflects a journey through challenges and moments of clarity, inviting a sense of hope and growth.”
