Awareness!!!! World's Main Pollinators are Dying!
this painting is about the Bees-- they are dying. If the Bees die then nothing gets pollinated and then no more food for humans or animals. Scientists are calling it Colony Collapse Disorder.

Einstein once remarked that “if bees were to disappear, man would only have a few years to live.”


here are some articles about it:

if you didn't like those articles Google [link] things like "Bees Dying" "Bees + Colony Collapse Disorder" etc...

Yeah, all of that bees stuff is scary... People in general, are stupid and it's easier to get humans and american more, to forfeit their freedom than their luxuries.
But your painting is incredible!!!! I love it.

I can see why you're very happy with it; this is a gorgeous work.
As for the bees, well... I see more of an impact from this than from "global warming". Peh.
