Acrylic on three canvases
If you love and appreciate the natural world and how it works, you'll enjoy this three-part artwork created to honor our hard-working Apis mellifera family. The third in my Bellingrath series features three bees, each on a separate panel, visiting a pink camellia. They are after pollen, a protein-rich food source for these girls and their babies. The flowers they visit are among the multitudes of camellias blooming throughout Bellingrath Gardens. As anyone visiting in springtime knows, you can hear the buzzing all around you as the grounds are alive with the creatures.
Next time you're tempted to swat, please think twice. These are some of the very creatures that ensure we all eat.
