WASP

This is a photo I took a while back. I had it in my gallery, but took it off when I used it in my "Bzzz" painting.

I have received several requests to add it back to my gallery. So here it is.

Thank you all who have voted for me and thank you for looking!

Renata, I love this wasp......is it a photo or a painting, a real tight painting? I killed a wasp one time with some acrylic spray fixative I had in my art studio. This was years and years ago. But it killed the wasp and I picked up the wasp to hold it harmlessly in my left hand while I drew it with my right hand, in colored pencil. The wasp had been dead for about a day when I picked it up to finish my drawing the darned thing came completely back to life in my fingers, I let go and it flew away.....The spray fixative had just put it to sleep or froze its joints up so it couldn't move for a while. And thanks for all the support in my art I'm looking over your portfolio right now.......real nice artwork I say.

Wow! Fantastic photo, so close and clear. I've never seen a wasp so close up before, but that's deliberate, lol! I don't like them near me, but it's wonderful to be able to admire their beauty like this:-)
