Goldfinches In The Thistle

30"x40" oil on canvas

Inspired by the wind-swept dunes of the Indiana shoreline, American Goldfinches in the Pitcher’s Thistle captures a moment of vibrant interaction between species and landscape. Through painterly gestures and atmospheric depth, the work celebrates the resilience of both flora and fauna, grounding the golden energy of the birds in the soft sweep of dune grass and sunlit slope.
