About the Artwork:
I recently started using patterns and textures in my paintings. It adds an architectural elegance to the work and a sense of antiquity. The model expresses serenity and calmness, knowing the bees mean him no harm. He stares directly at the viewer while the intense light source draws the viewers to the rose. – Scott G Brooks
