Artwork Description:

Title: Bee on Lavender

Gorgeous fat furry bumble bees buzzing around on flowers are such a huge and iconic part of our summer days.

I originally painted this happy bee on a stalk of lavender on A6 Yupo paper using gorgeous vibrant & flowing alcohol inks with neat alcohol.

Artist Bio:

My name’s Karen Johnson and I'm the Derby based artist behind Millie Moth. Inspired by my wild garden, my work falls into 2 styles - one uses alcohol inks to paint vibrant flowers, and the other is created digitally using elements of my paintings, drawings and isolated photographic images. My work is full of colour and I aim to convey the happiness I feel when I’m around flowers and foliage. There is such a wealth of life in every small growing space and I try to capture that beauty and vigour by injecting a little wildness and joy into every piece.
