It's smoky in Pennsylvania. I heard Bill McKibben use this phrase recently (the Pope may have said it first) and I just had to draw it in the sketchbook. #climate #envirosky #sketchbook #solar

Working on wings. There are enough of them that it will take me more than one session to complete. #sciart #bugsky #wings #insertaninvert

While working on the background color I found I had a delightful color palette. One nice evening I sat outside and painted an ornamental Japanese Maple. #nature #maple #sketchbook #pleinair

Working on wings. Adding the shine, it doesn't take much to create the effect. I hope this lands for you. #sciart #shiny #light #bugsky

Adding the legs, suddenly this is all looking a lot more lively! #sciart #painting #yellow #bugsky

Let's close out this week with a detail shot. I'll have more to share on Monday! #sciart #artsky #closeup #bugsky

Now for some high contrast. I was so looking forward to seeing how the yellow and black come together (by being complete opposites)! #sciart #bugsky #insertaninvert #traditionalart

It's subtle but adding the full black helps create some more depth. For now it's hard to tell at a distance but I think that should improve as I continue with the next layer. #sciart #bugsky #painting #shading

I'm beginning with the dark areas which requires at least two painting sessions for me. Today I'm starting with a dark gray. #bugsky #howto #sciart #insertaninvert

Who's that Pokemon (Abstract edition)? Give me your best guess! #pokemon #abstract #sketchbook #playful

Painting it blue. There is a lot going on in the piece so I opted for a more subdued ground for this one. What do you think, so far? #sciart #blue #video #bugsky

Extra paint means extra play in my sketchbook. Here's another moody landscape. #sketchbook #landscape #paint #ocean

Sometimes you look at art and sometimes wasps make their nests in the bronze sculpture right up the sculpture's pants. High class living over here. Some days, I love how nature happens the way it happens. #bugsky #whoops #nature #surprise

I made a timelapse of my drawing, hopefully that helps to reveal the scope of this piece. #bugsky #sciart #wip #howto

Penciling is done. This is my most ambitious insect piece yet and the largest one I've done all year. There is so much to be excited about with this one. #sciart #bugsky #pencil #illustration #gardening

I am so excited to share this new piece with everyone. I feel ready to dig into this one. #sciart #artsky #bugsky #wip

Time for a true search and find challenge! I thought the piece was done and took a picture, then realized I missed painting two small areas, can you spot what I missed? #puzzle #challenge #difference #kidlitart

It's a party, a graveyard party, what a party! #closeup #comicart #kidlitart #spooky #monsters

I'm adding shadow, this piece came together quickly and I think it was a good first piece after a brief break. I felt a bit uncertain when I started but I'm glad I challenged myself to continue! #bugsky #sciart #painting #video

Hey any entomologists know anything about this salmon colored stripe on the wing of a box elder bug? It's so striking to me, does it serve a special purpose? #sciart #bugsky #invertefest #gardening

I bet the #sciart crowd would be interested in seeing this cool project!

@elizabeth-prosher.bsky.social guess who finished playing through Wax Heads this weekend. I really enjoyed it, a little like occupying a slice of alternate history for a bit, great style and great music too!

When I found this subject on a walkway I instantly became excited about getting to paint that bright red. Totally worth the wait! #bugsky #sciart #color #wipwednesday

Here is a view of sketch vs the final art in progress. This one stayed pretty similar, they don't always. #sketchbook #natureart #illustration #outside
