“All the Buzz”
A sweet foray into bee land where you can find sunshine on a stem and a buzz of activity around yellow blooms.
Busy as a bee! This bright and sunny piece always captures attention. It is done in blooms of yellow to express the shining sun in midsummer. The various uses of honey are illustrated by pictures and bling while the bees busy themselves making more sweet honey. Is that Pooh Bear covered in honey and in trouble with the bees again? Can you find the Queen Bee? It’s little Rena (her name means “Queen”); she was diagnosed with cancer in 2012*. Look…she even has a crown on her forehead! (*From National Children’s Cancer Society Calendar 2012)
