Painting - Watercolor
Description
A bee is busily collecting pollen from all the bright beckoning blooms! This watercolor painting is done on hot pressed watercolor paper, and is yet another one in my bee series, where I have been painting bees in different mediums on a variety of substrates. Although I've done watercolors a plenty, this is the first time I have ever used hot pressed paper. While the bee may be the subject of the painting, I particularly enjoyed painting the flowers here. The hot press paper really lent itself to creating beautiful, flowing petals.
