246# Strathmore Acid Free acrylic paper.

I created the background on September 7th with the intention of returning to add a silhouette. However when a friend visited and suggested that I attempted to paint a feather.. this art card was suddenly destined to go in another direction..

On September 8th, I painted the center line of the feather with Titanium White and then let it sit for the day.

September 9th I returned to the art card and formed the rest of the feather with Titanium White and a tiny amount of Burnt Umber to highlight the center of the feather and add a little more detail to the fluffy part.
