"Thistle Patch" invites you into a quiet moment of pastoral beauty at Pierce Point Ranch in Northern California. Delicate thistles bloom amidst wild grasses in the foreground, their intricate forms offering a striking contrast to the weathered wooden fence that guides the eye toward a rustic barn in the distance. The composition captures a harmonious balance of nature’s fragility and the enduring charm of rural life.

The encaustic medium elevates this piece with its rich textures and subtle layers, while intricate hand-carving enhances the thistles, giving them a lifelike presence that invites touch. The rustic barnwood frame completes the piece, complementing its natural aesthetic and adding warmth to its timeless appeal.
