Title: Bombus Lucorum
This White-tailed bumblebee was painted with acrylic on board for a commission from The Bumblebee Conservation Trust, to highlight the decline of native bees across the UK. I used acrylic paint and a range of brushes to capture the textures of the bee’s hairs and fine details.
Compared to other bumblebee species, the individuals of B. lucorum have shorter tongues, and this characteristic enable them to rob nectar. The worker bee uses the horny sheath around its tongue to make a hole through the flower, reaching the nectar without entering the flower. Therefore, the worker bee does not come in contact with the pollen while getting the nectar.
