About The Artwork

A swarm of honeybees fills the zinnias on a late summer day. Inspired by the hum of life, by an abundance of pollinators that lend a hand to a bountiful life. In the spring on the sun soaked, rich, red dirt that held my body, stuck in my hair and remains in my pockets and heart, I lay with the wild honeybees that carried me to their trees and changed a cold concept of nature and service into a warmth and harmony worth sharing. My residency at Willowtail Springs Nature Preserve and Education Center in Southwest Colorado offered me the space to breathe, listen and relate a story of the natural world. Inspired by the quiet and hum of life, by the ripples in the lake that found their way onto the handmade paper and rice paper scrolls, this series of pollinators was created in a temporal process with honey-based watercolor, ink and chalk.
