Big Bees, 2024
Acrylic on canvas
90 x 100 x 3.5cm
My painting represents a hive of bees, busy working together as one community. I got this inspiration to do my series of bee artworks from my hometown in Charters Towers, where I used to sit and watch the bees working tirelessly for hours, collecting the pollen from the flowers in the front garden. I often sat with my Nan, and we watched the bees together for hours.
