“The Return of Spring” is a charming encaustic mixed media painting that beautifully captures the magical moment when winter begins to melt into spring. At the heart of the artwork is an elegant bird, surrounded by delicate pink flowers, fluttering butterflies, and soft green leaves, all resting gently in a snowy landscape.

The vintage-inspired textures and gentle pastel palette give this piece a nostalgic, cottagecore aesthetic—perfect for bringing warmth and storybook charm into your home. The encaustic technique adds depth and texture, with layers of beeswax and pigment creating a soft, dreamy surface.

Whether displayed in a cozy cottage kitchen, a nature-inspired gallery wall, or gifted to a bird or flower lover, this piece speaks of renewal, serenity, and the quiet joy of spring’s return.
