Watercolor painting of a American Kestrel feather.

American Kestrel  — Feather #120

“In this painting, I used warm earth tones and cool grays, blending them seamlessly with soft brushstrokes that give the feather its ethereal quality. The subtle transitions and gentle splatters, crafted with my hand-made pigment Rocky Mountain #6, create a sense of simple elegance and integrity. Through these delicate layers and flowing movement, the piece conveys a feeling of openness and sincerity, inviting a quiet confidence and warmth.”  — Shayna, October 2023
