“In this piece, I embraced the vibrant energy of red and the earthy calm of brown to craft an intricate feather shape. The delicate, sweeping brushstrokes give a sense of gentle fluidity and motion, while the dynamic splatters and drips add texture and life. As I painted, I felt a quiet strength emerge, where the interplay of colors and shapes creates a sense of overcoming and renewal.”
