Illustration Friday: "Buzz"


When I was a kid the prospect of being stung by a bee was, like, the most horrifying thing imaginable. I have memories of being outside playing and some kid spotting a bee and everyone completely going mental and running around everywhere. When a bee did finally get me it was a a bit of a letdown, actually.
It didn't live up to all the hype.

That is so cute! And i love your style how the crowd always goes wild in front of a buzzing bee.

I am deathly allergic to bee stings and I'm the only one who remains calm while the bee is buzzing. It usually works. Except a coupla times when I've gotten stung. Ooops. Off to the hospital.
