Honeybees are always working, but there’s something peaceful about the way they move—steady, quiet, and full of intention. In this small painting, a honeybee approaches a wild tamarind flower, with its soft white bloom standing out against a background of varied greens. It’s a simple moment, but one that captures the calm rhythm of nature.
This piece was painted from a reference photo, using a mix of realistic detail and loose, expressive brushstrokes to bring the scene to life.
It measures 4x4 inches and is painted in acrylic on a ¾" thick cradled Ampersand hardboard panel. The edges are fully painted to match the background, so it has a clean, finished look all the way around.
It’s ready to hang right out of the box—no frame needed, though you can frame it if you prefer.
