I wonder what Mr. Bee does in winter? I’d like to think he’s on a warm beach somewhere sipping nectar and not going in circles. Here he is with another one of his many friends.

Original painting is available for purchase with PayPal on Daily Paintworks.

Prints and posters of “Flying High With Mr. Bee” can be bought through Fine Art America.

He’s always happy, humble, and flashing a peace sign. That’s why I love this guy!

“Carnival Apples” Acrylic painting on panel, 12″ x 18″. Copyright ©2017 Lesley Spanos, all rights reserved.

Candy apples, or toffee apples? I guess it depends on where you live. The dessert no one eats, but they look pretty, don’t they? I’ve painted from this reference before, in oils, and I liked it so much I had to try it in acrylics. This one comes framed, wired, and ready to hang. $575 includes shipping in the continental US.
