Rhonda you certainly captured the transparence of the bumble bee's wings. Great job. Hope you are staying safe and warm with all the winter weather coming and going. Have a wonderful weekend. Hugs!

Thanks, Debbiie. I did put a bit of Chinese White over some of the wings to make them shiny.

Another lovely one! I can't wait to have them buzzing around the garden. Unfortunately our government have just ok-ed using a pesticide that is harmful for bees. With that and the rest of their shenanigans they are really making me cross. -Sorry rant over. On the bright side your painting cheered me up :o) Best wishes.

Thanks, Jennifer. I agree, love seeing bees (and birds) in paintings!

Thanks, Lisa :). I don’t understand the destructive behavior of our governments! No forward-thinking when certain powers take the reins and business is more important than health of all living things. Love to see people with bee hives in their yards (allowed in some places) or farms :) Individuals make the difference.
