Feather # 77 — French Eurasian Collared Dove

“In this piece, I used a soft palette of whites and grays, allowing subtle transitions and delicate shades to create a sense of peace and reflection. I layered my brushstrokes with gentle, sweeping motions to capture the natural elegance and lightness of a single feather, while some splatters and drips add a touch of spontaneity. Through this painting, I aimed to express a serene journey of insight, encouraging a quiet contemplation of one's inner thoughts and dreams.”
