The Plantasia Collection: "Summertide" 16 × 12
“Summertide” looks at a close-up of a busy bee going from flower to flower on a lemon tree in London’s Chelsea Physic Garden.
When I went to the Chelsea Physic Garden, the sky was blue and the day was quickly becoming hot. In the garden there was a lemon tree laden with fruit. I started taking pictures to capture the citrus’ magnificence.
Then I noticed a bee going through the tree and I tried to capture that perfect moment with my camera - the bee on a lemon blossom.
Dramatically lit, this painting has a dark background of dense foliage. In the foreground is the vividly illuminated honey bee gathering pollen from a lemon blossom. Up close you can see the hairs on the bees body and the pollen that fills the baskets on her legs.
May this piece bring a luxurious sense of nature hard at work to your home.
“Summertide” makes a wonderful diptych when paired with my “Heliconia Lustre” painting. I worked on it simultaneously with “Summertide”. Together they sing and balance each other.
Created as a part of Plantasia Series. Learn more about this series, its inspiration, and sentiments that rooted my process, HERE.
