Original artwork description:

Painted in two stages - the first stage involved creating a watercolour wash using colours representing the foliage and being mindful of leaving some light.. In the second stage the bee was painted and some of the lavender defined loosely. Photo references used were my own, taken in our garden. Watching the bumblebees fly from one flower to another collecting pollen is so inspiring. I spend many happy hours observing, sketching and photographing!

Materials used:
