Feather # 31 — Hawk

“In this painting, I used soft earth tones, with gentle browns and grays, to capture the delicate essence of a single feather floating on a white background. Each brushstroke is light and fluid, creating soft transitions and subtle blends that give life and movement to the feather. The playful splatters and faint edges symbolize rising above challenges, and in painting this, I felt a quiet strength guiding my hand, encouraging both discovery and bravery.”
