✨ Meet the Long-Horned Bee! ✨🐝

Named for the exceptionally long antennae, these solitary bees are primarily native to North and South America, with many species found throughout the United States and extending into Central and South America.

🐝 DID YOU KNOW?
While most bees prefer individual nests, male long-horned bees can often be found clustered together on plant stems or twigs, resting in groups overnight—a rare sight in solitary bees.

🎨 ARTIST INSIGHT:
With this painting, I wanted to highlight the long antennae, striking green eyes, and soft textures of this fascinating bee.

✨ Meet the Texas Wild Bee ✨🐝

This striking bee is a native of Texas and other parts of the southern United States.

🐝 DID YOU KNOW?
Unlike most bees, Texas wild bees don't produce honey or wax. Instead, they spends their energy locating the nests of host bees and timing their egg-laying perfectly to maximise the chances of survival for its offspring—a true master of strategic reproduction in the bee world.

🎨 ARTIST INSIGHT:
With this painting, I focused on the vivid red legs and mesmerising green eyes, capturing the bold patterns and unique beauty of this wild bee. Every detail emphasises its distinctive role in nature.

✨ Meet the European Honey Bee! ✨🐝

These bees are native to Europe, Asia, and Africa but were later introduced to other parts of the world, including North and South America, New Zealand, and Australia.

🐝 DID YOU KNOW?
Through a “waggle dance,” they can tell other bees the exact location of food sources and share directions with remarkable accuracy.

🎨 ARTIST INSIGHT:
With this painting, I wanted to capture the honey bee’s intricate beauty and vibrant colours. The golden, fuzzy textures and delicate wings highlight the bee’s hardworking and gentle nature.

✨ Meet the North American Cuckoo Bee! ✨🐝

This clever species ranges across the Eastern Temperate Forest and Great Plains regions of the midwestern U.S., with sightings as far as southern Texas, Arizona, and even down through Central America and Mexico!

🐝 DID YOU KNOW?
These bees are sneaky nest-takers! Instead of building their own, they lay their eggs in the nests of other bees—often bumble bees. Nature’s ultimate opportunists! 😎

🎨 ARTIST INSIGHT:
I tried to capture their resourceful nature and the way they adapt to different habitats. This piece reflects their striking appearance and the role they play in the ecosystem.

✨ Meet the adorable Teddy Bear Bee! ✨🐝

These fuzzy little bees may look cute, but they’re fiercely independent! Each female builds her own burrow underground. Don’t be fooled by their solitary nature—they often nest close to each other in cozy spots like creek banks or under houses.

🐝 DID YOU KNOW?
Teddy Bear Bees use buzz pollination, vibrating their bodies to release tightly-held pollen from flowers like tomatoes. Such clever pollinators!

🎨 ARTIST INSIGHT: Their warm, golden fuzz inspired this piece. I aimed to capture their cozy, earth-toned beauty that makes them shine in nature.

✨Meet the Tawny Mining Bee✨ 🐝

This furry, ginger beauty loves popping up in parks and gardens during springtime! Keep an eye out for their signature volcano-like mounds—those tiny dirt hills mark the entrance to their underground burrows. 🌿

🐝 DID YOU KNOW?
These bees are solo flyers, creating individual burrows for their young. No hives, no stress—just a cosy little hole in the ground!

🎨 ARTIST INSIGHT:
With this painting, I wanted to capture the warmth of its soft ginger coat and contrast that with the delicate translucence of its wings. At the same time, I aimed to highlight the bold and furry thorax.

Ever seen a bee this striking? 🌿 This beautiful little pollinator can be found across Australia, easily recognised by its stunning blue markings.

🐝 DID YOU KNOW?
These bees are clever tricksters—they lay their eggs in the nests of other bees. Talk about outsourcing! 😄

🎨 ARTIST INSIGHT:
With this piece, I wanted to capture the intricate details of their patterns and the vibrant blue that almost seems to glow. It’s a reminder of how much beauty can be found when you take a closer look at the world around you.
