A little locket
made to hold
something hardworking and sweet.
made to hold
something hardworking and sweet.
Lately, while up the mountains running with the dogs, I continually bump into fat little bees questing for the sweetest flowers. I often stop, sit down in the wildflower patches and watch them as they fill their leg baskets with pollens. I get up close enough that we bump noses. Sometimes I talk to them as they work and tell them where I saw nice patches of balsam root. It might seem like a simple critter to watch but a lot can be learned from a little bee.
I love this piece and that little blue bumbler is more delicate than you could ever imagine. Sublime. Available over in the shop where there is also a bit of a moving sale going on.
Your bee piece is magnificent! I love its uniqueness! If you want to learn more about the awesomeness of bees, check out Margaret Fienberg’s book “Scouting The Divine” there’s a whole chapter dedicated to the significance of bees – it is awesome!
Keep up the great work and have a great day!

i am smitten by this piece! bees are so amazing and important…
there was an amazing veterinarian herbalist named juliet de baracli levy who used to talk about how bees liked to listen to stories, so she would sit and chat with them, telling them all the gossip.
such blessed creatures.

Jillian darling,
To are just o gash darn cute!!!
I saw a big bumbler today as I took a studio break and chatted with a friend outside.
I love that they just work away at their purpose…. Not thinking, questioning, what should be done, just doing what they are here to do.
I admire you, our little bee friends.
