Description Bumble Bees are my second favourite animals after dogs. I just had to draw one XD!
The background is a manipulated photograph of my kitchen.

FYI : Bumble bees are very peaceful creatures (eventhough american ones can be more agressive than european ones) you could even stroke most of them, they will only try to push you away with their legs. Only female bumble-bees possess a dart, and only use it for self-defense.

-------------------------
Les Bourdons sont mes animaux préférés après les chiens. Il fallait que j'en dessine un XD!
Le décor est une photo retouchée de ma cuisine.

Pour votre information : les bourdons sont des créatures paisibles (même si les variétés américaines sont un peu plus agressives que les européennes. Vous pouvez même en carresser la plupart, ils ne feront qu'essayer de vous repousser avec leurs pattes. Seules les femelles possèdent un dard, dont elle ne se servent qu'en cas d'autodéfense. Rien à craindre d'un bourdon donc.

Bumble bees are my favorite insects. I wish I could have one as a pet so I could always have one around me.

... Aren't insects part of the animal realm ? It's not a mammal, that's for sure.

I love this piece. You really manage to capture the "essence" of the Bumble Bee as well make it so cute and unique with your art.

I love like Bumble Bees too. I haven't met a single one that I didn't like.

Arg. I just saw on your page that it wasn't a paid position. I'm afraid all my friends are professional artists and can't afford to work for free ;_;.

Good luck though!!

IISwordsMedia In reply to Tiamate [2013-02-14 12:29:33 +0000 UTC]

No problem. We understand.

Please still let them know because they might know someone who is looking to get some experience and great exposure.

Thanks for your time!

Nah, you can sure damn squish mosquitoes all you like.
And wasps. And hornets. (But do that with a shoe if you don't want to get a mean sting)
