Feather # 219 — Violet-Tailed Sylph Hummingbird

“In this piece, I embraced the rich, deep purples and blues, aiming for a balance that feels both vibrant and peaceful. With delicate brushstrokes, I focused on creating soft transitions and subtle layers, allowing the feathers to emerge gracefully against the white background. While painting, I felt a sense of calm and assurance, each stroke representing a moment of quiet strength and openness, inviting you to feel connected and at ease.”  — Shayna, April 2024
