Wow, painting on a feathers sounds like cool idea! Gotta try this one!
Wow!! Thank you! I would have never guessed against the grain.
Could you tell us how to fix the feather? I guess it's the most important question 
This depends upon the situation. I will usually connect two feathers by drying paint between them. For single feathers, I use my left hand to hold it steady and my right hand to do the painting. As the paint dries, the whole thing becomes more sturdy.
Wow!! I wish I could do somehting amazing like this!!
Thank you!

This is so fantastic! I can't wait to try it out! Excellent work, by the way.
Awesome! I'd love to see your painting if you end up making one!
I made one, but mine's not very good since I'm REALLY new at this! XD
Very nice!
You know, I think that some kind of gloss could help the feathers join together and reinforce them to make it an easier surface to paint on. I use polyurethane; a couple coats.
