I decided to try another yellow flower — even bigger this time. I took the reference photo in our garden one morning — I couldn’t believe that the bee posed long enough for me to lean in for such a closeup. I was pumped. And I guess I got pumped up again while making this painting — it’s one of my favorites of the daily paintings so far! Hope you like it too.
