“I chose deep purples and bright blues to bring these feathers to life, using gentle brushstrokes that let the colors flow and blend naturally. The soft edges and delicate splatters create a feeling of calm and movement, as if the feathers might lift with the slightest breeze. While painting, I felt an uplifting sense of letting go, capturing a moment that washes over you with refreshing clarity.”
