    This is delightful! I love the look of bees and they are so important to our food and ecology… but I am terrified of being stung since I saw a kid who was allergic get stung at recess in elementary school. I have so many allergies, I worry that is a possibility. Did you do this marvelous painting?

    • I don’t eat sweets, but I use local honey when I sweeten my oats or other things. I am not allergic to bees, but I had bee poison injected into my hands when I got carpal tunnel. Of course, that was in Europe or somewhere else when I was traveling, because it’s not FDA approved here (no money it it). Many older people with arthritis love to get stung by bees because it works like a painkiller and an anti-inflammatory.

        I had never heard it could be medically good to be stung. That is very interesting. Maybe I do want to be stung after all?

    • I am taking online painting classes (and other classes) and this was one of the homework assignments to replicate a watercolor bee painting.

    • Yes, but a copy of an original. My husband gave me a one-year membership to craft classes ,and I am all over the place. This was an assignment to work with watercolors and copy a painting that was given to all of us.
