Original artwork description:

Original orchid bee watercolour on 100% cotton paper - 26cm wide by 14cm high.

This purple and puce pollinator stopped me in my tracks! His shiny iridescent armature and feathery phalanges are simply fantastic.

I loved working his body shape out of rose of ultramarine, manganese blue and lavender plus soft buff titaniums and chocolates for those wings.

I am in awe of this creature and looked at videos of a host of them buzzing around a food source in South America.

A lovely gift for the bee lover or entomologist or anyone who respects wildlife.

Your bee will be very rigidly packed for total safety in transit:)

Thanks for looking - Alison

Materials used:
