“In this piece, I used deep indigos and soft grays, letting them flow and blend naturally to capture a sense of gentle movement and change. The feather's edges are carefully softened, with watercolors bleeding and merging to create a feeling of organic growth, while light splatters and drips add a touch of vitality. As I brushed against the surface, I felt a quiet confidence, knowing that each stroke could convey the beauty of life’s ongoing journey.”
