Yes this is a specially pretty bee, and good luck with the house. I hope you may have room for a print! <br /><br />Jose: its only because the bee doesnt seem to be found around the orchids .. but I really do have to find a good excuse to paint one of these lovely things<br /><br />Silver Fox: Thank you its a lovely poem.

Really ...Sorry I've not stopped by for a while!<br />Really love this one Val - both the beautiful bee and the tendrils on the plant. <br />Pleased to see you've got some prints on the go. Perhaps you'll be posting them to the UK by the time my house is not full of rubble...?<br />Nearly time for the exhibition! <br />Thanks for the hare link - I had come across it before, but hadn't looked for about 2 years, so it was a lovely reminder. <br />Best wishes<br />Dan<br />-x-Danhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00670407627249157371noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3946913143265151282.post-34836744380431225732010-05-14T17:12:51.028+01:002010-05-14T17:12:51.028+01:00Indeed, a very handsome bee!
