Female Cardinal Feather Watercolor – Original & Prints | Feather #132 by Shayna Larsen – 500 Feathers Collection

“In this painting, I used a gentle gradient from earthy browns to vibrant pinks to capture a sense of transformation and inner strength. The soft transitions and delicate blends were achieved through layering and light brushstrokes, allowing the feather’s shape to emerge gracefully. The subtle splatters around the edges add a touch of spontaneity, mirroring the unexpected paths we often take in life. I embraced this creation process with an open heart, confident that each color choice and stroke expresses a journey of resilience and upliftment.”  — Shayna, November 2023
