Watercolor painting of a American Woodcock feather.

American Woodcock  — Feather #242

“In creating this piece, I embraced warm earth tones, using a gentle blend of oranges and browns to capture the natural beauty of the feather. My brushstrokes are purposeful, transitioning smoothly from dark to light, and the splatters and drips add a sense of dynamic movement. As I painted, I felt a deep connection to the transformative journey of nature, allowing each stroke to reflect resilience and the promise of something new.”  — Shayna, August 2024
