Over the last couple of years I have been working on a series of paintings of honeybees. As a beekeeper myself, and an ardent admirer of apis mellifera, the European honeybee, I have wanted to share my appreciation of their beauty and their amazing society. Together with 3 other artists, this has grown into the show If Bees are Few... The title refers to Emily Dickenson's poem": To make a prairie it take a clover and one bee, One clover and a bee, And revery. The revery along will do, If bees are few. For more information about the show, please check out ifbeesarefew.ca.
