Feather # 213 — Blue Jay

“I chose deep blues and soft grays to capture the delicate nature of this feather, using watercolors to create gentle transitions and flowing shapes. I let the colors bleed into each other naturally, highlighting the feather's softness and grace. The splatters and drips add a touch of spontaneity, embodying a sense of freedom and resilience that speaks to something deeper within us all.”  — Shayna, April 2024
