Watercolor painting of a Blue Jay feather.

Blue Jay  — Feather #35

“In this painting, I chose soothing shades of deep indigo to create a serene and calming feather against a crisp white background. I focused on using soft transitions and delicate layering, allowing the colors to bleed and blend gently, which gives the feather a sense of gentle movement. The controlled splatters and drips add a playfulness that leads the viewer's eye naturally, suggesting a quiet path forward and a feeling of gentle support.”  — Shayna, February 2023
