First real people-free outside walk in months. The air was cold but the sun was warm. Oh, did I need that.

how's Granite doing? she fares well 🐸

the final boss fight in okami will always be iconic to me. a god of nature and life fighting against technology and greed. like you're literally beating a giant slot machine with a paintbrush and if that isn't on the nose idk what is

Hello... Early morning. My little feathered sweetheart, Gina The Canada Jay, displaying her best side pose. Also known as a Gray Jay and a Whisky Jack. A real beauty. 📸🇨🇦 #AlgonquinPark #CanadaJay #GrayJay #Birds #Photography #BirdPhotography #Wildlife #Nature #OntarioParks #Canada

The #BirdOfTheDay theme is #LookingAtMe. Here's a Barred Owl looking down at me. #Birds #Birding #Wildlife #Nature #Photography #Animals #PhotographersUnited #Photo #EastCoastKin

Getting the notice that your new paint was available all day Friday but they didn't notify you until closing so you have to wait till Monday is some real adhd artist torture.

Hellfingers

Anyone local have a megaphone? University contacted me to participate in a "study submitting my art through AI in order to generate feedback" and I'd love to drive there and exclaim "Go To Hell" directly into their office.

An Anhinga, a water bird found mainly in South America, seen here at "Ding" Darling NWR, #Florida Jay Norwood "Ding" Darling (1876 – 1962) was an early 20th Century cartoonist. He founded the National Wildlife Federation. #birds #ding #snakebird

It's the last day of winter here, and I just finished my Snow Bunting ♥️I wanted to capture their skidaddle, so she's not the -MOST- stable little bird in my flock, but I love her anyway. One of the highlights of this winter. #needlefelt #snowbunting #birdart

Your daily affirmation: Be as bold as you need to be. Be as wild as you want to be. And be as weird as you possibly can be.

Everything is terrible so take a second to enjoy these three giant manta rays frolicking in the deep 🤿 #marinelife

Wanna see a ton of birds absolutely lose their shit feeding on little fish in the middle of the ocean? 🪶 🦑

Watch your step on the Oregon dunes, it's snowy plover nesting season 💛🐦 Seasonal restrictions are in place from March 15–September 15 on beaches where snowy plovers nest. 📸: @blmoregonwashington | #snowyplover #plovers #oregoncoast #oregon #birds #birding #babybirds

This morning, I was looking around my #wildlifegarden and noticed 7 or 8 Scarce Fungus #Weevils on a pile of logs beside my bog garden. These are unmistakable creatures. #weevilwednesday #bugsky #beetles #wildlife #insects #macrophotography #bugs

This Turkey Vulture posed so nicely for me while sunning itself on top of a snag. Seen on my walk through the local park yesterday. These birds migrate, and are one of the early, obvious signs of Spring returning. #Nature #Photography #Birds #PNWBirding #WillametteValley

I have no need or space for this, but this 1850s apothecary cabinet — at the antiques warehouse in Hudson — is amazing

"California Queen" - acrylic on board, 8x10" I've always loved condors and while this was a challenging painting, I loved creating it. Will work on getting prints made with some of the proceeds to benefit condor reintroduction, so stay tuned! #birdart #wildlifeart #sciart #condor #birdpainting

Happy Mother's Day! 🌷 Here's a quick little stylised study of a Silky Anteater Mother and baby. #SciArt #animalart #mothersday

This happy upside-down harbor seal was too cute not to capture. Love its sleepy face 📷 Canon R5 Mk II Canon RF100-500mm f/4.5-7.1L IS USM Av, f/7.1, 1/3200, ISO 1600, 500mm 3/10/26 Oregon Coast #seal #seals #harborseal #marine #marinelife #ocean #nature #wildlife 🦉 🪶

Everyone who can should go out and do this immediately.

Some shrews crawling around. Work in progress. I love shrews! #sciart #wip #art #mammals

Week 2 of #sketchyhabitats2026 “twisted brambles” and these are all birds you’ll find among the brambles, but only one of them is singing its own call. The other three are known, to varying degrees, for their mimicry skills. Mockingbirds, blue jays and brown thrashers are all capable of mimicry.

Making plans for Saturday: Oh man I'm gonna wake up, quick breakfast, walk to the shopping center, get a nice treat, get coffee, do art, play video games, do a few chores, watch a movie, it's gonna be aweso- Saturday morning:

Pelicans are so weird ... Happy Pelican Friday! . #birds #pelicans #sonyalpha #pelicanfriday #audubon

I’m at an art gallery show featuring college student artist/scientist teams creating new works about climate hope and I just saw an exhibit on decomposition of fallen trees as a fertile home for other organisms that says “There Is No Death In This Ancient Forest” and it hit so hard I had to sit down

Molas found their niche and have existed for millions of years! It looks strange, but this is what peak performance looks like for a jellyfish-eating machine. Inspired by @hankgreen.bsky.social. Available at my shop; link in bio! #mola #sunfish #weird #fish #SciArt #redbubble #findyourthing

Trying to find a laundry set that isn’t so big I have to full-body embrace it whilst relieving myself, but not one I have to sell a kidney to afford. Appliances have apparently caught truck syndrome and doubled in size since the 00’s. I hate human problems this is silly I would like to become moss.

This is my long-held belief about visual arts in general. Comics, Illustration, Fine Arts, Design…they are all distinct disciplines. Distinct histories. Distinct trajectories. They overlap sometimes, yes, but we need to stop placing Fine Art on a pedestal for the others to aspire toward.

I just had to pay for some very expensive tests for my cat Merlin so if anyone is feeling generous and wants to pick up some of my paper insect templates I'd greatly appreciate it! 🪲 ko-fi.com/W7W3GUT2/shop

Here's a T. Rex bored to death trying to bite their own tail. My partner asked me to animate it in stop motion, after she watched a video about the very important topic of "could T. Rex chew its own tail like a dog". The puppet is still a work in progress 🦖

Finally taking a moment to breathe with everything at home balanced and calm and with maybe enough cash to visit family in April even.. Dryer: 😃🔥 💀! It's old enough to rent a car in most states so understandable but dammit, nonetheless.

I think I’m going to call it on art for this week, aside from one trade I owe. I did a few sketches for MotM (pakicetus my beloved) but otherwise my tanks are running on empty and I am being too fussy about everything. Will be instead cleaning the whole house because the demons of march are upon me.

I think the "If your mom wasn't saved she's in hell now" literally minutes after I learned she had died was the big one. I tagged along as an imposter to fun outings after bc my friends were all in Youth Group together(🤢) but I think that obvious cruelty was where any chance to recruit me fizzled.

The world is a big and scary place, but this fluffy baby albatross is practicing flapping its wings on a sunny Dunedin afternoon.

Thank you to the sciart feed and the birds!/mammals/marine feeds for being the few that are curated over aggregated because boy am I tired of getting fetish content jumpscared in the paleo ones.
