The Bees` Wedding



Rather more genuine natural history went into the making of this image than it might at first seem.

  1. i rather like the energy of this painting - is it one of yours?

    Is the black bee like the proverbial black sheep of the family that you only ever see at weddings and whom everyone whispers about because of some deep dark scandal?
