This wildflower bouquet is made up of Utah native wildflowers: Western Coneflower Rudbeckia Occidentals, Showy Goldeneye Heliomeris multiflora, and Utah Sweetpea Lathyrus pauciflorus. The bumble bee is Bombus huntii.

Have you ever picked flowers from your garden and had the bees follow you around gathering pollen as you gather blooms for a bouquet? That’s what I thought of when I painted this fluffy little bee.
