Paint Party Friday - Acorn Squash Flower



 Welcome to Paint Party Friday!  I did an acorn squash flower ACEO (2 1/2" x 3 1/2") based on a photo sent to me by my sister in California who is growing them in her garden this summer. There were some bees getting pollen, I included one of them in my painting.  Isn't nature magical? 

Here is her photo below:

My parents grow squash in their garden, too, and all the bees are completely yeloow from the pollen, when they visit the flowers. Beautiful painting with the little visitor! Happy PPF!
