Always Near | Original Encaustic Cardinal Artwork on Wood

Always Near is a one-of-a-kind original encaustic mixed-media painting featuring a vibrant red cardinal nestled among delicate white blossoms, winter berries, and softly falling snow.

Created on a natural wood slice, this dimensional artwork brings together rich colors, intricate details, and beautiful raised textures that give the composition a wonderful sense of depth and movement.

Cardinals have long been symbols of love, hope, and remembrance. For many, their unexpected appearance brings comfort and serves as a gentle reminder of someone special who is no longer physically present but remains forever in our hearts.

Always Near captures that quiet connection between memory and nature, reminding us that love doesn't disappear. It simply finds new ways to make itself known.
