What lies behind us, what lies before us are small matters compared to what lies within us. (Ralph Waldo Emerson)

About the creating process:
1. Started with a solid background.
2. Placed the feather, then duplicated the layer, and set the blending mode of the bottom layer to Divide.
3. Placed some colored transfers above the feather's layers.
4. Scanned the handwritten qoute and placed onto the paper (with Darken blending mode).
5. Embellished the page with some dropped stains and UrbanStitchez.
