Last 2 days of the Birdtober 2025 Sticker campaign! www.backerkit.com/c/projects/a... #BirdArt #SciArt #stickers #birdstickers #BSNM #crowdfunding

Happy Mother's Day! Moms, I hope you're far less busy than this Wood Duck today 😅 #BirdArt #SciArt #Watercolor #FineArt #AnimalArt

Another native plant #WeeklySketch! This is Prairie Smoke before the flowers go to seed and get their signature smoke look. I wasn't sure what to sketch this week and my husband suggested doing a before and after seed for Prairie Smoke. #BotanicalArt #SciArt #Watercolor #PleinAir #FineArt

I painted this awhile ago and realized I never posted it. Rose-breasted Grosbeaks tend to stop at my feeders for only 1-2 days around this time of year, but they spend the whole day chowing down on my seeds. #BirdArt SciArt #Watercolor #FineArt #AnimalArt 1/2

Woot the sparrow & Bluethroat now unlocked! Our next target is the snowy owl and slightly shocked looking short-eared owl! So if you ever wanted a mini owl to hoot from your lapel you've got 1 week left to back! www.backerkit.com/c/projects/l... #SciArt #Illustration #Birds #Owls #bsnm #BirdArt

These are some of my favs I've done. 💙 Portfolio: cara.app/casswart Linktree: linktr.ee/casswart

Haven't done a #WIPWednesday in a while! I triggered the MN eBird Rare Bird Alert a few weeks ago when I found some Black-necked Stilts. I tried painting in the part of background first this time, I think it works well when you have light-colored birds. #BirdArt #SciArt #Watercolor #FineArt #WIP

We just reached another stretch goal for Birdtober 2025 Stickers! American Golden-Plover is now a design you can choose. Just 9 days left of the campaign! Pledge now to score your own birdy stickers: www.backerkit.com/c/projects/a... #BirdArt #SciArt #BSNM #stickers #birdstickers #AnimalArt

I'm excited to announce my next exhibit! Seasons on the Wing will feature native Minnesota birds from all year round. It will be at the Trailhead Gallery at Theodore Wirth Park from May 23 - July 9. #BirdArt #SciArt #Minneapolis #TheodoreWirth #Loppet #TwinCities #ArtExhibit

Today is my birthday and I'd really love it if I could get some reposts or something I guess? Here is a collection of my favorite pieces from the past couple years, I hope you enjoy them as much as I did making them. #art #sciart #nature #animals #birds

Ooh we're just £4 away from unlocking the next feathery stretch goal pins... www.backerkit.com/c/projects/l... #SciArt #BirdArt #Illustration #ArtistSupport

I've been painting native plants in my yard en plein air. Here's what I've done so far: Dutchman's Breeches, Great White Trillium, and Jacob's Ladder. It's great practice, but I will have to stop once the mosquitoes come back 😅 #SciArt #BotanicalArt #Watercolor #FineArt #NativePlants

#WeeklySketch I did 2 more plein air native plant sketches! The trillium is from my yard, the Jacob's Ladder is my neighbor's, just on the edge of our yards. #BotanicalArt #SciArt #Nativeplants #Watercolor #PleinAir #FineArt

I'm so pleased I can finally share my Antarctic Imperial Cormorant illustration for #PolarLights! This was a bird I knew little about before, but I quickly fell in love with their incredible colors and how they contrast against the vivid blue & white of the Antarctic landscape. 🎨 #SciArt #BirdArt 🪶

Day 30 of #repostyourart: Whimsical I love this painting, and it's almost that time of year again! Can you spot the two Hooded Merganser ducklings that got mixed into this brood? #BirdArt #SciArt #Watercolor #FineArt #AnimalArt #repostyourart26

Finished 🩷 #birdart #cedarwaxwing #artistsofbluesky

Day 29 of #repostyourart: Plant Red Columbine are one of my favorite native wildflowers. This was also my first time using hot press paper. Who knew it'd become one of my favorites for watercolor in just 2 years? #BotanicalArt #SciArt #Watercolor #FineArt #nativeplants

Phone photo for now, because we're having some work done on the house and the studio's in disarray. But I couldn't wait to share newest painting of a lovely Galah girl! I absolutely love pink birds and Galahs have so much character 🩷 #BirdArt #SciArt #Watercolor #FineArt #AnimalArt

Any of you out there ever had your #PassportPhoto turn out like this #BirdoftheDay? 😭 #BirdArt #SciArt

Day 27 of #repostyourart: Garden A natural garden of native plants! This Field Sparrow with Ohio spiderwort and gray-headed coneflower was inspired by how the prairies look in the summer at some of my favorite birding spots. #BirdArt #SciArt #repostyourart26 #AnimalArt #Watercolor #FineArt

My favourite artwork of last years 🤍 White Egret. Open to see full size! #SciArt #birdart #oilpainting

Day 26 of #repostyourart: Mushroom I drew this American red squirrel with a mushroom because they cache them for the winter! #Mammals #SciArt #FineArt #coloredpencil #AnimalArt #repostyourart26

I skipped #WeeklySketch last week and then went a little too hard last evening 😅 A sort of plein air painting of my Dutchman's Breeches that bloomed this week! The sun was setting though, so I had to finish it indoors. #SciArt #NativePlants #BotanicalArt #Watercolor #springephemeral #FineArt

Day 24 of #repostyourart: Fast/Slow Part of why the deep sea exhibit at Monterey Bay Aquarium was so soothing to me was all the cool, floaty jellies drifting slowly. These are some Snowglobe Jellies I painted on black paper. #SciArt #Marinelife #Watercolor #FineArt #repostyourart26 #jellyfish

Day 20 of #repostyourart: Critter Elephant shrews fit the bill for critter I think! They are too cute 😊 #Mammals #SciArt #coloredpencil #FineArt #repostyourart26 #repostyourart26day20

These incredible Buff Tip Moths blend in so well with branches that you might mistake them for sticks. Nature's masters of disguise are truly fascinating!

a fun fact the boundary waters contains 1100 lakes. unfun fact the type of copper-nickel sulfide mine that the US federal government just voted to allow in the boundary waters watershed has a 100% chance of leaking and poisoning the entire watershed #savetheboundarywaters #linocutprint #blockprint

Day 19 of #repostyourart: Fruit A Red-crowned Amazon from Birdtober eating a fig. This drawing may become one of the stretch goal stickers in my upcoming campaign launching April 23! #BirdArt #SciArt #Copic #FineArt #repostyourart26 1/2

Treecreeper Drypoint. Hand printed on Somerset satin 300gsm paper. Small creepy little mousebirds…Love em! #birds #birdart

Day 18 of #repostyourart: Everyday Life When a blizzard disrupted my weekend plans to practice life-drawing at a conservatory, I instead did a still life of the Asiago whole-wheat buns I make for myself every week for breakfast 😂 #Watercolor #FineArt #Sketching #repostyourart26

Eastern Kingbird - final render I have been trying to add more texture to my work. I genuinely like how it's going, it has that feeling of chalking/color pencil slow build up I miss from traditional art. [Hand painted, no AI 🚫used] #Bird #BirdArt #birdartist #SciArt #NatureArt #WildlifeArt

Day 17 of #repostyourart: Doodle This year, I'm trying to do more informal experimentation with my art and committed to doing weekly sketches. Some of them are a little more than sketches, but this one I think is appropriately sketch/doodle-level! #BirdArt #SciArt #Watercolor #FineArt
