" Banksia and Bees " is an original oil painting from Jess King's still-life collection, featuring two vivid banksia cones in deep crimson and burnt orange, a trailing jade plant spilling from a cobalt-blue vase, and a bumblebee caught mid-flight above a small red berry. An open book sits beneath the arrangement, its pages fanned open as if the botanicals were being catalogued. Set against a soft pink backdrop, the piece balances Australian native flora with a quiet, studious stillness. A vivid, nature-led piece for collectors and stylists drawn to botanical subjects with bold colour and fine detail.
