This bee was struggling when I found it and died in my hand. I am different than before, thanks to this project and the commitment to see that it requires!

You can see this bee's tongue. When I started this project I did not know what I was looking at. Eyes open!

Bumblebee YMCA. Still one of my favorite pieces from this series. This one left me feeling like this project had something to it! What do you think?

A gouache painting of a bumblebee, on a lilac-colored background. The bee is viewed from the side, facing left. The painting features colors of pale yellow, dark chocolate brown, gray and black. With very subtle touches of slate blue, on the legs and eye and ochre on the wings. Dramatic, wispy shadows extend away from the bee.

Painting with my browns today. Most of the curling linear work is in this color. This was a lot of fun to paint for me!

Looks lovely, what is the name of the variety, or is it your own hybrid?

Sketching yellow jackets. The world felt different (in a good way) once I noticed bumblebee queens scouting for new nests, now I watch for that sign of spring. I know these queens are out there too.

Suddenly things begin to pop. It's an interesting challenge working on a smaller scale. It's fun to work with different limits sometimes!
For the upcoming Arcana group show in Lancaster, PA!

Gray skies ahead. I know queens come out post-snow most seasons but I think the winter scene fits more thematically. It's one of the great things about art, you can choose what works best!
