Portrait of a Bee Series- No. 1-ORIGINAL Mixed Media PAINTING

Description

4 x 4 inch canvas, 1.5 inch deep

The “Portrait of a Bee” series is a continuation of my fascination for bees and their disappearance. Each painting in the series has a different portrait of a bee that I have drawn over a collaged canvas and painted with acrylics. I also allowed some honeycomb to peak through- creating an awareness of Colony Collapse Disorder while at the same time showing the beauty in the natural world. The honeycomb fades in and out of visibility, giving an ephemeral feeling to the piece.

These collage paintings also have much attention paid to the sides of the canvas. I have glued decorative papers to the sides that compliment the image and make each of these ready to hang.

The canvas has been coated in UV gloss varnish and is signed by the artist on the back.

--The first 3 thumbnails show the image of the collage painting for this listing. Please look at the last 2 thumbnails to see how the paintings in this series look on the wall.—
