“Red-tailed Hawk”

I chose warm, earthy browns and soft, muted grays to create a gentle yet striking presence on the canvas. The subtle blending and flowing transitions of watercolor evoke a sense of tenderness, while the delicate, almost whisper-like brushstrokes bring an airy movement to the piece. As I painted, I imagined the fine balance between strength and fragility, capturing fleeting moments and cherished memories with each layer of color.
