“I chose a gentle yet powerful contrast for this piece, using hand-made pigment Rocky Mountain #6 to blend rich browns and soft grays with delicate splatters of rosy rust. My brushstrokes are intentional yet fluid, capturing the feather's texture and delicate balance, while the subtle drips and edges add movement and depth. In creating this, I felt an assured strength in its simplicity, inviting a reflection of personal strength and renewal.”
