Thrilling. I have a pocket reference of insects and this would fit in it perfectly.

Wonderfully informational. Great surfaces and color.

A "vespula germanica" I presume, with entomological precision!!
Welcome and congratulations!!!

Stunning and very accurate painting. It could certainly illustrate a book on wasps. :P

I've just watched a short vid clip on the largest wasps in the world, a type of hornet found only on a Japanese island called Honshu? Anyhow, here's the link to a National Geographic video clip of the hornets, they are ENORMOUS...

MP4 format, 06:42 long, 43.6MB: Japanese Hornets

I'm sure you could frame grab the video and do some further artwork, this clip shows the monster hornets invading and robbing a colony of smaller yellow hornets. Loads of interesting material in there!
