“I chose a gentle palette of earthy browns, soft greens, and muted yellows to capture the quiet beauty of this feather. My brushstrokes are light and fluid, allowing the colors to bleed and blend naturally, creating a sense of gentle movement and transition. The feather’s delicate form, with its subtle splatters and drips, is a reminder of life's continual cycle and the simple elegance present in nature's design.”
