In this miniature painting, I depict a honeybee that has just landed on a vibrant lavender bloom, ready to gather nectar. Measuring 4x4 inches on a ¾” thick cradled hardboard, this piece showcases the rich colors of the bee and lavender against a warm, softly blurred background of greens with hints of dark purple, orange, and white.
With a blend of realistic detail and loose, painterly brushstrokes, the artwork captures a moment of connection to the natural world. As you enjoy this scene, consider that a single hive of honeybees can produce up to 60 pounds of honey in a single season, depending on the availability of nectar and pollen!
Ready to hang, this painting invites a touch of nature’s charm into your home. I hope it resonates with you and enhances your appreciation for the simple joys of life.
