Honey Bee

last night I took an art night class

there were maybe 15 of us

sip and paint

It was lovely having the guidance of Jenna

each painting looked different

even though she guided us to paint a bee

add honeycomb

then flowers

each painting, all unique

i love that

each personality shines through

Honey Bee

this week i had an art patron tell me that sometimes her granddaughter is called "B"

that she has long blonde hair and wears colorful clothing

so all that inspired this piece

which is now in the shop

Next Weekends DC: Pollinators

tears of honey
~

With Spring here on this side of the earth

it is a great time to consider: 'Pollinators

Droege said “Almost all the fruits and nuts, and a lot of the vegetable varieties, that we eat require some insect—usually bees—for pollination,”  

here are some of our pollinators: bees, butterflies, hummingbirds, bats, ants, beetles, tiny rodents and more. So BIG Vast possibilities this week!

I saw my first butterflies of the year today! Two kinds, Mourning Cloak and an Compton Tortoiseshell:

also i found a tick on me, just walking around, did not bite me

I would say that Spring has begun!
