A customer walked into the studio earlier this week and purchased a print of A Pika and a Bumblebee. She had been eye-ing it through the window for some time and fell in love with it every time she walked past.

She was so excited to finally bring the painting home and seeing her joy was a reminder of why I create art.

Prior to this moment I was in creative fatigue, not having a good idea of what to paint next. It had me feeling down...

Lit up, I thanked her for her joy, because it made me excited to create a new version of the little pika and bumblebee. I immediately got to work planning...

This painting was quickly born from passion and joy. I am in love with this little piece and it came from someone loving the original idea.

Sure, the piece has a little gloomy, rainy look, but that is just the artist translating their feelings through their work. Isn't that what art is? The balance is in the flowers, the lichen and the inhabitants.
