Feather # 68 — Eurasian Collared-Dove

“I gently let the watercolor flow across the paper, capturing the delicate essence of the feather with soft earth tones blended with hints of deep indigo and rust. My brushstrokes are subtle and intentional, creating smooth transitions between colors, while the feather’s edges dissolve gracefully, embracing the surrounding space. The splatters and drips bring a dynamic energy, inviting you to pause and reflect on the simplicity and deeper meaning embedded within nature's gifts.”  — Shayna, May 2023
