The Bee Side Painting

As an ecologist I am opposed to toxic carcinogenic substances being thrown into the ecological equilibrium of the natural world. This painting is inspired by studies showing that insecticides and pesticides destroy the biosphere by causing serious decline in insect populations including bees. This has a deep impact on our environment affecting pollination and causing decline in bird populations who feed on various insect species. The painting draws attention to the negative impact of toxic chemicals on the biosphere. The Bee in the painting is from a personal experience where I fed a bee stranded on my terrace some honey and managed to photograph it before it flew away. The background is based on a neurological map of a bee brain that is about the size of a sesame seed! Could bees be smarter than us?! Certainly sweeter than pesticides. Painted using high quality oil paints and linseed oil on a pre-stretched deep Windsor and Newton cotton canvas measuring 80 by 80 cm.
