Blessing of the Bee is now available on Everyday Original!

Bee, birdie of air, Bring nectar on thy tongue, With a tiny pitcher, Only fitting a finger.

The bee was seen both as a potential threat due to its stings but also as a healer that brought honey for ailments and other uses. There are many spells and songs for preventin or healing a sting, but also many songs pleading for the bee to bring in precious honey.

This painting is from my mini series “Blessings of the Old Gods” in which I explored various blessings related to animals. Many of them have to do with health, fortune and protection against evil and misfortune.

Painted in ink and gold medium on 300 g/sqm Arches hot press watercolour paper. The painting is unframed.
