bee keeping is real interesting stuff. my great-uncle used to do it. best honey ever! his hives kept dieing off so he sold all his equipment a year or so ago.

I'm terrified of bees and anything that resembles a bee or a wasp

I go to a french college and am studying in graphic design. It's kinda dull since everything we do is on Mac computers, but once I graduate, it's back to the good'ol fashioned paper'n pencils XD. Whenever I get the chance, I also do some airbrush.

Finally, another airbrush artist on the site. Pics of work? I mainly do auto work.

Heres a couple of mine

I dont do canvas that much, but heres what I cam up with

I can only keep so many as I am busy removing them from people's houses and trees, bldgs, etc...

I usually try and keep my apiary to no more than 50 hives. I currently have 40 going at the moment.

Does your bee farm ever lead to infestations of your home or close by neighbors?

Holy crap! 40 hives is a lot of work! Lot of good honey too though!

I'm currently in college to be an office administrator (exciting I know..) but I certainly like the idea of bee keeper

I've had a few swarms here and there that I was able to contain. I do my best to prevent swarming by giving them room and splitting the hives when and if swarm cells are seen.

Healthy hives will want to swarm, the key is to manage them and trick them, by splitting them, and simulating an artificial swarm, so as they think they've already swarmed.

To do this, the mated queen has to be moved to another box, along with brood and feed.

I also keep swarm traps handy in my apiaries which also help to catch swarms that made up their minds to leave.
