Feathering isn't drybrushing but a technique between drybrushing and full controlled painting strokes. The light touch of a brush gives a slight gradient of paint and generally only uses the end of the brush but more than the tip itself. I also use feathering as a way of helping the transitions between blends seem smoother but can only really be done when the paint is still slightly wet.
