Feather # 269 — Silver Pheasant

“As I painted this piece, I was drawn to the gentle hues created with my hand-made pigment, Rocky Mountain #6, accentuating the soft, earthy tones. The delicate lines and subtle transitions capture the essence of a feather, its lightness suggesting a sense of direction and depth without effort. Through the layering and gentle blending, I aimed to evoke a timeless feeling, one that speaks to life's quieter, profound moments.”
