OH HEY! Some very exciting news - I just found out that I will be tabling at Thought Bubble again this year! SO HYPED ✨💫 I've got a few new zines in progress, so will be debuting them there ✨ @thoughtbubbleuk.bsky.social

it's 3°C and a squirrel was screaming at me with it's mouth full of conker... feels like a good omen for the first day of autumn!

This was a nice photo to study. Thank you Lumi for the sun pose!

the mornings are getting cooler, so Lumi is fully invested in Sun-Chasing™️ round the flat til the degrees increase

I wanted to get a video of this ghost crab but every time I got close to their hole they scuttled back in, so I tried getting clever with it. I made a little sandcastle and shoved my phone into it, hit record, and walked away. Crab was VERY suspicious of this addition to their environment.

Such a great day at the Dundee DICE day yesterday, so lovely to catch up with so many pals, connect with new folks and listen to some great talks and panels ✨ I was too busy chatting to take many pics but lovely seeing the space at Waters Edge!

GenAI has polluted image search results, especially for animal pics. It’s now basically impossible to find accurate art references. Enter this: a repository of open-access, AI-free images of wild & exotic taxa. Artists creating *without AI* have blanket permission for derivative/transformative use.

Welp, I've just found out that my role has been made redundant 🫠... So I will be looking for work! If anyone is looking for a 2D/3D Generalist or Art Director for games (particularly specialising in stylised projects!) please shout! From concepts > modelling > animating thru to implementation 💛✨

It’s now 6 months from when I was let go so any shares of that post is very much appreciated. ⬇️

The art within Sword of the Sea is beyond beautiful and impressive. It is nothing short of a tragedy Natalie is looking for work right now. Please share this and hire her ASAP.

we used to build household shrines to Going On The Computer and it's no coincidence that as we abandoned these we started straying further from god's light

Tis the season! (for some more old art...) some festive themed daily paintings from back when I had significantly more time...

watched a seal bobbing in the waves, a couple of deer cruising by and the most magnificent sunset this evening!! Lumi had the best time too may summer never end :'))))))))))))))))

oof extra hard time concentrating today

The Fish Merchant! 🐟

Kurt Vonnegut’s definition of what makes something “art” is one of my favorites I’ve seen - from a letter to his brother in 1995.

finally got round to using this funky novelty soap I got as a gift years ago... each hand wash slowly reveals a frog that's seen The Horrors™️ ... truly glorious

Doing some stylized hair motion tests...

So delighted to find @fukuda-toru.bsky.social here, one of my all-time artistic heroes, the type of genius for whom the word was made. (These beetles are hand-carved out of wood.) Give him a follow and show him some love.
