oil on linen
$450
I guess it was inevitable wasn't?
I'm beginning to get comfortable enough with oil to play around with it. (Apparently I'm still intimidated by it, it's been five years now.) I painted a light coat of the color I wanted for the wings and then wiped it off with a paper towel and what was left was a nice transparent feel. I also took the liberty of giving them all a bit more fur so they'd chub up and look fuzzy and, well, more cute. Ouch! Perhaps I meant more delightful...fetching?

SUPER COOL!!!!
BEE-youtiful!!
Really, I love your bees. Such an unusual take-- very striking. (Bee-guiling, even).
If this is a painting by someone intimidated by oils I'd hate to see what they could do when they get comfortable with them... This is great, Suz. And, the title is perfect. -Don
A fantastic idea....beautiful painting. And I second Don....
LOVE this one!
Love this and the way you used the entire length of the canvas. Very cool. Perfect title!
Amazing! If I hadn't seen this I'd never have bee-lieved that they would make such engaging subjects!
Definitely, a furrier, fuzzier bee is more attractive. :) Awesome wings!!
