NOTE: That is actually, physically painted ON the feather. It is not photoshop.

So I found a swan feather last weekend and was trying to think of what to do with it. I decided to paint it, but it took me a while to decide what exactly to put on it.

Zemi declared that it should be him.

The feather was painted with acrylics. Everything was done by hand. Parts of Zemi and the lettering and stars on the back are done with pearlescent paint. It's shiny~<3 There's a hair clip on the end there, wrapped in black ribbon. I had to make a minor repair because the clip ribbon came loose, but it should hold up pretty well. Kinda considering taking commissions for stuff like this after I make a Zeb one for Syntyche.

Now to mail this to Wren.

Time: ~8 hours...?
Materials: Found swan feather, various acrylic paints, miscellaneous beads, black ribbon, sterling silver wire, medium hair clip.

extraordinary work, when you brought this to the college I was terrified that the onlookers, or even myself, might ruin it, being so beautiful. you have truly fathomed a new frontier in painting on shit no one would think of, and making it BEAUTIFUL and even poetic in a sense, keep up the good work hon.

*laughs* I got the idea from Nambroth, I think, so don't get too effusive with your praise of my creativity. Thank you, though :heart:

I'm a poet, don't know it, and surely don't show it.
