Original artwork description:

This is a painting in my new series of smaller pieces depicting close detail from some of Pieter Bruegel’s most notable works but applying my own colours and art techniques.
Bruegel’s drawing from 1568 is known as The Beekeepers. Three beekeepers in protective clothing attend to their hives. In front of the village church on the right, a young man is climbing a tree. None of the characters are identifiable: masks conceal the face of the beekeepers. They are at work with a lovely backdrop of landscape.
Pieter Brueghel the Elder’s works have inspired many including myself. Bruegel initially worked mainly as a prolific designer of prints produced from his drawings and only in the last decade of his lifetime he switched to painting, particularly specialising in peasants’ everyday life.
I am enamoured by his work and often comparison may be made with my other inspiration Hieronymus Bosch.
Perfect for adding a statement piece to living spaces that may create a talking point with visitors.
Executed in excellent quality acrylic paints, painted on all sides, and finished with a glaze of gloss varnish to protect against sunlight and dust. It just needs a nail or wall fitting to sit flush against the wall.
You will receive a signed certificate of authenticity.
The painting is 16 x 12 inches in size and is on stretched canvas.
All art is professionally packaged to ensure it arrives in perfect condition. My works have been shipped worldwide.
About me:
I am a painter, mostly in oils although I have begun to switch between oils and acrylics.
I love to paint, love colours, shapes’, and textures. I love the idea that a different story can be read into each of my paintings and each viewer may interpret a story different to another.
