Post 169: Bee Series 4: Honeybee at Work, 4x4 Acrylic on Canvas

Painting Name: Honeybee at Work

Talking about bees, we cannot leave the Honey Bee out. I've been painting Bumble Bees, and we do need more bees in the world, right? If you like honey, we do!

SKU: 08CQ21ACL2

Medium: Acrylic

Size: 4x4 Stretched Canvas

Price: $30.00 + Shipping (for each bee painting)

Edition Year: 2021

Series: Busy Bee Series 4

Framed?: No

Commissioned? No

What Brought About this Painting?

I started painting bees yesterday and I have done 4 so far. So this is therefore, the Busy Bee Series.

Honey Bees are the "sweetest of bees" in that they are best known for their honey production and crop pollination and have been "domesticated" for that purpose. They are certainly welcome in my garden for the tomatoes, melons, eggplants and cucumbers pollination!

So the name of this painting is really, the bee at work. I wonder it they could call that commuting to work?

Busy Bee Series

From left to right, top down, all are 4x4 mini canvases, acrylic:

1. Bee Flower Feast
2. A Bumble Bee's Butt
3. Buzz the Bee 2
4. Honey Bee at Work

I may do some more, but I also have a cactus painting on the easel now too.

Post 167: Bee Series 2: A Bumble Bee's Butt, 4x4 Acrylic on Canvas

Painting Name: A Bumble Bee's Butt

True, the Bumble Bee's Butt is the dangerous end, but you have to admit, they are cute butts.

SKU: 08CO21ACL2

Medium: Acrylic

Size: 4x4 Stretched Canvas

Price: SOLD

Edition Year: 2021

Series: Busy Bee Series 2

Framed?: No

Commissioned? No

What Brought About this Painting?

The painting "Buzz the Bee" sold recently at the Clearbrook Center of the Arts, so why not repeat a theme if it sells, right? This bee painting is the bumble bee flying away from the viewer so therefore, his wee butt.

I am painting two new bee paintings at the moment. The top one will have lavender in it above and A Bumble Bee's Butt is the lower painting and also shown below.

Post 166: The Wave, 10x10 Acrylic on Stretched Canvas In Progress

Painting Name: The Wave

Don't you just love sitting on the sand at the beach or somewhere along the coast and watching the rhythmic and mesmerizing waves coming in? There is so much to reflect on while you sit there - how small we are and how big the world is - so much larger and awesome then our worry of the day. 

SKU: 08CN21ACL2

Medium: Acrylic

Size: 10x10 Stretched Canvas

Edition Year: 2021

Framed?: No

Check availability and Prints on my Etsy Shop

What Brought About this Painting?

I really love to paint water, well, the challenge of painting water. Reflections in water are pretty interesting and hold challenges that can be daunting too. But a big wave coming in with light shining on it or through it and all the colors that can be dispersed - wowie.

Painting in Progress Images…

Do you have a better name for this painting? Let me know! Watch this post for updates and maybe a name with wash over both of us.

Sunday, August 1, 2021, 9:20 PM Tossing some more paint at the wave.

Monday, August 2, 2021, 7:11 AM Tossing in some rocks into the background coming into view now. (Looks like that would cause a splash.)

Monday, August 2, 2021, 8:02 AM I need to toss some breakfast down. Here's the progress.

Monday, August 2, 2021 2:38 PM I don't think I need to throw anything else at this one, would you?
