Seven honey bees in various poses scatter across a soft pale yellow ground, their bodies rendered in warm golden-amber tones with precise black markings and delicate wings. The illustration captures each bee with gentle naturalism, arranged in a casual, organic composition that feels both scientific and whimsical. Bound with 52 pages of 70lb paper, lined or unlined, behind an anti-scuff matte cover with wraparound artwork, made to order. Notes and sketches kept behind an independent artist's work, not a plain composition cover.
