I was inspired by a photo I took last year of a field of purple clover, full of busy bees. (Although I didn't manage to get any bees in my photo!) After making the mosaic bee, I thought it looked quite "dark" (as in macabre), as if it was a Tim Burton bee! So I made my drawing have stripey grass to emphasise that beautiful but slightly sinister look.
