I’m happy to announce I’ll be joining Bees in Art Gallery in the UK,
sister gallery to The Land Gallery, exhibiting artwork by leading artists
inspired by bees and other Hymenoptera.
Bees in Art is curated by Andrew Tyzack, graduate of The Royal College of Art,
London, UK and third generation beekeeper. Andrew runs several beehives and
paints in the East Riding of Yorkshire, UK.

Here’s a tiny insect Olympian, small enough
to use a blade of grass to do chin-ups,
ghosts of other bees pass by in the background.
This little athlete also appears in my book featuring the world of bees, Bee Dreams.
Watch my confusion and surprise,
as if the whole world has turned to midnight all at once,
whatever mischief I expected,
it was not she I thought to find!

We head into a new decade, while a bee slices
through the humid morning air towards
the empire of the sun.
A small squadron of honey bees is spotlit on a sunny green
stage, some coming home with a load of pollen,
others setting out to forage, hovering and tumbling,
a buzzing, yellow cloud of life.
A spring morning begins with a dance,
a honey bee partnered with her shadow.
Yellow angel of the garden, hearts desire, lord and master of sunlight.
A honey bee comes in with a harvest of dark pollen, a small contribution to the distinctive flavor of the hive’s honey.
A bumblebee climbs through a tiny jungle gym, the random angles of grass blades forming obstacles in the shapes of extinct animals.
A maze of asters, a myriad pollen destinations, the blazing end of a busy day for a bumblebee.
All in a honey madness hotly bound . . .
The crazy-happy, pollen-heavy honey bee above would like to announce the redesign of my bee website, BeeDreams.com.
I’m using Wordpress software not for a blog, but as a CMS, and it should allow me to update and change it often. A big thanks for open-source software and Red at Redworks.
Comments or criticisms are welcome.
Twirl like fire, leap at the sun.
Let’s twist again like we did last summer.
This honey bee wants to rock with you.
The cool stillness of a morning is broken by a honey bee’s hurried return to her hive, a brilliant angel of the garden.
