Bee days are over . . .

Finished drawing. A2 each bee is about 6cm long.

Days are all a buzz II

I have found a large dead bumble bee and have spent the weekend drawing lots of detailed studies of it, such a beautiful thing. This summer I did spend sometime coaxing worn out bees to drink honey and it does have miraculous effects great to take a staggering unresponsive insect and soon see it buzzing of through the air.

It is very changeable weather here but when the sunshine appears everything is abuzz and yesterday I really enjoyed watching all of the busy insects on my neighbours clematis.

The bees are all sleeping

Lovely evocative paintings of Bees by Angi Renfo, to remind us northern hemisphere dwellers of the summers buzzing. http://www.angierenfro.com/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/larkandkey/
