Summary:
This artwork features a detailed depiction of a bee, meticulously rendered on a hand-cut board prepared with traditional gesso. It features water gilding techniques adorned with metal leaf, which allows for creating a reflective, luminous surface. The hexagonal honeycomb pattern is achieved through agate burnishing while the subtle red accents from the clay bole lend an aged appearance.
