One week with Bumpy! Like any baby, he sleeps deeply and often – especially snuggled up to his Keeper, with a tummy full of milk. Rescued last weekend after his mother died in a territorial fight, he now has a family with us and a wild future ahead. www.sheldrickwildlifetrust.org/orphans/bumpy

She arrived at just one week old – traumatised, crying, pacing her stable through the night. Today, Kaikai turns one. And she's been running Kaluku ever since she arrived. Extremely intelligent, and utterly convinced she's the centre of the universe. www.swt.bio/kaikai

They are so cute and intelligent!! (I have recently started to watch baby elefant content - perfect anti-stress strategy.)

Updated my @inprnt.com gallery! See prints of my traditional geometrical drawings and code-generated art - available as fine art prints, posters, on canvas, metal, acrylic, or as small mini-prints or art cards 👇 www.inprnt.com/gallery/elke... Seems they have a sale right now! #SciArt #MathArt

You know how geodesic flow on a generic ellipsoid is chaotic...? www.diffgeom.com/product/unis... I sell exclusively at diffgeom.com. If you find my designs elsewhere, they were ... harvested. #MathSky #MathArt #SciArt

Lost Creativity Sorry I missed a day & I'm posting late, I'm in the middle of a move! 😅 This flower had me in all sorts of melancholy when I was editing it. I was in one of those "art block" moments. Glad that is over now. #photography #flowers #poppies #bloomscrolling #nature #naturephotography

"What is art?" elkement spotting a work of art in the wild - a DIY deer stand, made from a buffer storage tank!

I have drawn our about 100 year old scissors! Colored pencils on (very thin) black paper, size 21cm x 21cm.

I am a part time plumber (in fixing all the pipes in our house unless it's beyond my skill set) and I've never seen a sink like this, or the tools they are using (and my plumbers wrench is the best $35 I've ever spent on a tool).

I've said for years that artists should have their own websites to avoid the vagaries of social media & other platforms. I guess AI is even taking that away from us. Fuck all of this.

terrible. 20 years ago, the internet was full of hobbyist blogs and forums. over time, these have been replaced by paywalled substacks and private discord channels, each a walled garden. google's decision to prioritize AI just makes it less likely people will create free, public info

We've made it through Wednesday, the weekend is in sight! Am I the only one that would rather be floating around in space though?🤭💫 🧪🔭🐡📷

New blog post showing The Making Of my Magneto Compass inverted art: elkement.art/2026/05/20/m..., and a bit of background about the device. The inversion effect is always an interesting surprise!

Postal Scales: Vintag technical still life, inverted art. Originally created with brown colored pencil on pale green cardboard! Inverted version of a drawing from this public domain reference photo: www.si.edu/object/hanso... #sciart Is there a hashtag #engart ?

Practising freehand technical drawing: Magnetic compass, drawn by looking at a public domain image (museum exhibit). #SciArt #EngArt "Invert art": Originally created with red colored pencil on pale green paper, digitally inverted.

Spent the week with this harvest mouse. All graphite, GraphGear 1000 in three weights, and the branch took longer than the mouse did. Retirement is coming up in August and I am finally letting drawings take the time they want to take and taking days off like today to do that. #sciart

Good morning, a look back at my embroidery, The Mermaid and the Pearl, for you today. Completely freehand stitched in September 2024. No patterns, paint or guides, just threads. I hope it brightens your feed… 😉🪡🌿🐠🧜🏻‍♀️ #stitchedart #embroidery #thesewingsongbird

I’m in the blue zone and tried a new stitch - that circle with the 4 leaf clover inside made from two different blues in the first photo - no idea what it is called - anybody? #FiberArt #HandEmbroidery

This weekend I have been obsessed with optimizing the process for mounting mathematicall art prints on stretched canvas: #sciart #mathart

Temperature Waves - done! Watercolor on watercolor paper, glued to a stretched canvas and varnished! Heat equation, definition of diffusity, and temperature distribution in the four seasons (Northern hemisphere). #Physics #SciArt #MathArt

Work in progress - temperatures waves and related equations (Watercolor) #SciArt #PhysicsArt A simple model of how "heat is stored" near the surface of the earth - where is can be e.g. used by a heat pump. Stylized version of a plot based on a solution of the heat equation.

A blog post explaining the math behind the image "Cyclide Check" in what I hope is a friendly, step-by-step way. This is fun material, especially if you're teaching or taking or otherwise fond of multivariable calc or linear algebra! www.diffgeom.com/blogs/about-... #MathSky #MathArt #SciArt

I'm delighted and very proud to announce that Quite Good Cards has turned some of my caricatures into a line of greetings cards. If you're interested in acquiring some, here's the link: www.quitegoodcards.com/pages/cartoo... Reposts much appreciated! x

Never ceases to amaze me that we still discover such fundamental properties of the most abundant compound on the surface of our planet.

I've added the men's cut version to the "negative geometric art" T-shirt collection in my physics art shop! Each shirt is based on an involved construction created with pencils, ruler, and compass on paper. Store: store.elkement.art/pages/t-shirts #SciArt #MathArt #MathSky

Phase transitions of the first kind - work in progress! This time I am not using ruler or compass - just constructing the "3D" view of the stacked functions freehand. #SciArt #MathArt #Physics
