Raindrops of the Pacific NW 2

I have been working on completing the raindrop series. These are the second and third works. Each piece takes approximately 60 hours to complete. It is so amazing how each raindrop is unique, like a snow flake, with it's own personality.

As a little twist in the end - I threw in the bee in color! The painting was used as the signature piece for my last show.
