Sunflower and Bee

12 x 12 inches, Encaustic on wooden panel, 2015 

This painting was inspired by a photo I took several years ago on a painting trip to France.  I wanted to pay homage to the bee, who pollinates our world.  

Green Butterfly
12 x 12 inches, Encaustic on wooden panel, 2015

The reference for this painting was a photo I took while on a visit to the palace gardens in Hanover, Germany. I was captivated by the beautiful green wings of this butterfly sitting on the purple flower and I snapped a quick pic to add to my folder of inspirations for future paintings.
