Feather # 69 — Golden Pheasant

“I'm really proud of how this piece came together, capturing a sense of delicate growth. I used soft amber and earthy browns and oranges, gently blending them with water to create tender layers that flow seamlessly, echoing life's cycles. The gentle splatters and feathered edges add movement and energy, making the image feel like it's constantly unfolding, reminding us of endless potential and new beginnings.”
