A Step Back #3 - Bees and Honeycomb!

in #art7 years ago

Good evening everyone!


I wanted to show a picture that I drew with pastels with my family, similar to the previous butterfly picture. This was back a few months ago!

I worked mainly on the bees in this. Pastels are so different than digital or traditional graphite! But different mediums are definitely very fun to work with! I try to do many different things, to keep the creativity high and break it up a bit! Just digital art gets boring after a while.

The area where the larvae is popping out is actually a little rough from the pastel!


Inspiration


The picture was based on this one here:

The left bee is an africanized variety, while the right is european. Different species!


I hope you all enjoyed this little piece! It's only taped up on the wall for now. We're going to frame it in time!

Have a great evening!

If you enjoy my art and would like to see more of my creativity, nature walks, music, and fitness, please consider giving me a follow! Thank you!

That is a really amazing illustration. It is not easy to get such crisp detail with pastels and you have done that beautifully 👌😉👌

Thank you very much! Pastels have been difficult for sure, but it's been worth it to learn!
Thanks for commenting! <3
