Feather # 28 — Pheasant

“In this piece, I played with soft, muted earth tones contrasted with deep blacks to create a gentle yet striking presence. The feather's shape emerged through delicate layering and subtle transitions, while splatters and drips added organic texture to capture its fleeting beauty. I aimed to invite a sense of quiet reflection, conveying that even the simplest forms hold profound significance.”  — Shayna, December 2022
