Feather # 87 — Indian Peafowl

“I used soft blues and greens to create this feather, allowing each color to gently blend into the other with smooth transitions that evoke a sense of tranquility. The delicate brushstrokes and subtle splatters suggest movement, as if it could float away with a breeze, calling to mind cherished moments. Gently layering the colors with care, I added splashes of deeper blue to convey a quiet strength, a gentle reminder of enduring beauty despite the passage of time.”  — Shayna, July 2023
