Serious About Cereus - Completed Work


"Serious About Cereus"
12" x 12" Oil on canvas

Completely finished this painting a few minutes ago.   The title refers to how serious this bee was going about his job inside the blossom of a cereus cactus or night-blooming cactus, as it is frequently known by.  I took the reference photo for this painting around 6 to 6:30 on a July morning, because as the sun got higher in the sky the flowers were usually spent and gone by around 10:30 a.m. 

Please contact me if interested in purchasing this painting.
