Honey bees are amazing social insects whose population is in serious decline across the United States. This is a real concern, as pollinators such as honey bees are an integral part of our food system. Without pollinators, crops fail to produce fruit. Many factors contribute to the bees' decline, including mites, pesticides, and malnutrition. The gold in this painting reflects what a precious and vulnerable resource the honey bee is.

This fine art giclee print is a limited edition, signed and numbered. Dimensions include a 0.5" blank border. I sign and edition this fine print to allow space for a mat while framing. While we color correct and inspect every print by hand against the original work, colors represented vary on different computer screens.

Giclee print is acid-free, mounted on archival acid-free board. The paper never touches an acidic surface, making this print archival, which means it should never fade or yellow- just don't put it in direct sunlight or mount with acidic paper.

Because of the high quality, acid-free archival nature of this Giclee print, I only ship this beautiful print flat, in a box packed with materials to keep the integrity of this museum quality print.

The original painting of this print has SOLD. If you are interested in purchasing original work, please visit my Artwork Archive at https://www.artworkarchive.com/profile/heather-friedli
