A flat photo of the black, white, and copper honeybee drawing on tan paper. The honeybee has landed in the center of a white coneflower head. The petals of the coneflower are soft and velvety. The honeybee has two relaxed, transparent wings attaching to its fuzzy thorax. Its glossy black eyes are focused on the flower, with its antenna pointed down. Behind the bee you can see a hint of its striped rear-end. Above the bee and flower is a solid copper sun with sunbeams.

— Archival Quality Giclee art print
— smooth 100% white cotton rag

Having a honey bee colony has been on my bucket list possibly since Chuck Charles had her rooftop hives on Pushing Daisies. I have yet to make any progress on said beekeeping desires, but if there was ever a place to do it, it would be in North Carolina (where the western honey bee is our state insect). Did y’all know that bees have five eyes? Honey bees also use dancing to pass on direction, distance, and quality of nectar sources to others in their hive. ⁣Get your shake, waggle, and loop on with this art print!

About the Print
My open edition giclee art prints are masterfully printed on 100% cotton rag with pigment-based inks for archival quality — that’s 200 years of beauty. Each one is printed and cut to order. Due to this, your new print may take two to three weeks to produce and ship. For international shipping, please read the FAQ carefully for best practices and order processing times.

The 8″x10″ art print comes with a 1/4 inch white border. Borders are helpful when matting and framing are in your art print’s future (which I highly recommend for optimal enjoyment and protection). The 4″x6″ print size is borderless, meaning the print goes from edge-to-edge.

Fauna Collection

These prints are sourced from my beautiful collection of 4×6″ charcoal pencil and linoprint originals titled the Fauna Collection. Created together in October 2020, they are a meditation on the diversity of wildlife found in our back yards. Many of the creatures featured are characters in my own life story. Now it’s time for them to have a place in your home.

One vulture has landed on the bottom left of the ring and is facing left, looking up at the vulture to the top left of the artwork. This vulture is coming in for a landing, its left wing forward and behind its head, its right wing forward and arcing above its head as it back-wings.A flat photo of the black and white otter drawing on medium grey paper.
