BEE TAXI (2016)
Acrylic on Gessobord - 12" x 16"The last painting I used this palette for, HARBINGER, had a lot of yellows in it. When I finished, I covered the palette with a yellow ochre gesso so I could use it again. 1/3

While working on a small black wash rendering, I made marks on the board that suggested a scene to me. “Bee Taxi” is what I saw when I turned the Gessobord upside down. 2/3

I realize a real bee’s wings probably flap at a different angle than the blurry representation in this little piece, but that smudge allowed me to visualize the image in the first place, so I left it as I found it. If I used this sketch as a springboard into a regular painting, I would research and adjust the blur of the wings accordingly. 3/3

Any plans to sell this as a print?
Its a lot of fun to me and I know someone who'd enjoy it.
