Huevember Day 7 ๐งก : Lava...frogs! Lava pools always looked like they would be a nice little pond grotto for a creature, you know, if they weren't so hot...molten. These little guys seem none too bothered by it, though.

Huevember Day Six ๐งก: New prompt, carabara?? I think itโs a capybara mascot for
Cara.app
. I went in a simpler direction with today, seeing as Capybaras serve as a good reminder to not to take things so seriously all the time.

Huevember Day 5 ๐ค: Pearl One of the best things about painting is when you can use everything but the color itself to represent a hue. Thatโs where to real magic happens in my opinion.

Day Four ๐: Ginkgo...knot! The fan-shaped Gingko leaves reminded me of the shapes of a Dara Knot. The Dara knot is a very old symbol that is said to be inspired by the intertwined roots of an oak tree. The oak is said to symbolize strength, the Gingko, longevity, and resilience.

Huevember Day Three ๐: Ginkgo We may enjoy their fleeting beauty in our modern day but both the ginkgo trees and butterflies have been around for at least 100 million years. ๐

The nights are getting a little bit longer and fall is approaching fast, at least up here in the Northern Hemisphere. Hereโs to enjoying the last days of summer ๐ I started this owl painting as a study a while back, but was having so much fun exploring I just had to turn it into a full painting.

Close-ups from 'The Owl Phoenix' painting. All those exciting details can get lost in the overall composition. Here's their time to shine! ๐ฅ

"The Owl Phoenix" - The first in a series of paintings. It's an interesting idea, wildfire is seen as destructive, yet it's an integral part of the forest's life cycle. Many seeds need fire as a catalyst to sprout. Like the phoenix, life and death are not so much opposites as one and the same.

I made a font for an anthropomorphic bee people. It's kind of hieroglyphic like Oracle Bones Chinese + Mayan + Egyptian, with symbols deriving from things that would matter to a bee, such as sun location, plant part, stylized bee shape, and weather shorthand.
