A vibrant and detailed depiction of roses in full bloom. The petals burst with warm, glowing shades of orange, pink, and red, capturing their soft texture and natural beauty. The flowers are complemented by a tiny bee, adding a sense of life and movement to the scene.
The painting is done on linen, which gives it a subtle texture that contrasts beautifully with the smooth brushwork. The natural tones and the bee’s presence create a feeling of harmony and connection with nature. It’s a joyful and inviting piece that draws attention to the beauty of small, fleeting moments.

I am drawn to flowers and insects. Lately I have been influenced by the early botanical artists who would sometimes deconstruct the flower, stem and leaves in order to portray each of its parts. Often the proportions were distorted and forms were exaggerated.
