This is one I have posted before, but I added the something that was missing, four of them in fact.

The addition of the bees makes this perfect. So much movement captured in your strokes.

This is wonderful. Your bees have that fat, plump but still able to fly feeling to them.

Being born places you at a greater risk of dying later in life.

I loved the colors and the effect of the bee’s flight.
Congratulations

This is so vibrant, almost like a moving living painting. Well done!

Bumblebees were the perfect addition to this painting, they add a lot of interest and are fun.

Indeed, the bees make the picture. Would otherwise bee too flat.

Newbies: Carefully note the yellow banding on the bees. The yellow is modulated, without going to green in the darker areas.

That is an excellent observation! Normally when Black (of nearly any kind) is mixed with a clean Yellow, the result is Green. And, that is not merely an optical illusion–it truly DOES turn Green, and it plots on a color wheel as such, using scientific measuring instruments!

Adding nearly any color that contributes the complement of Green (which is Magenta), will prevent that undue, unnecessary Green-ness.

This is a good painting, and you painted the bees in a truly excellent manner!

Your use of color, values, and most especially edges gives this moment life and movement- very good!
