PSA for former horse girls: The Przewalski’s of Przewalski’s horses is pronounced “sheh-VAL-ski” Love, a former horse girl who only just learned this recently after only having experienced it in all the horse encyclopedias I read as a kid.

Spinosaurus ~ spine lizard 🦴🦎 . It’s been exciting to see the unveiling of the new spinosaur species ‘Spinosaurus mirabilis’ - a new unicorn for the palaeo community 🦄💀 . I thought it would be cool to look at the comparison between the two heads of each species!

My first Oddities and Curiosities Expo last weekend was SO fun! Such a good vending experience, I got to meet more of you delightful souls IRL, and I only avoided buying every skull I laid eyes on by remembering every inch of our car was literally packed to haul this booth stuff. Time to sleep.

Remembered again today that my grandma, my biggest creative influence, grew up in Nazi-occupied Finland and was only able to immigrate into the US because my American great-grandmother knew a US Ambassador to Finland. It’s in my creative and literal blood to oppose Nazis and support immigrants.

I’ve said it once, and I’ll say it again: Dinosaurs are for girls. This was the first dinosaur skull I made (back in 2022), for a lovely lady in Germany, and it rekindled my childhood love of paleontology and put me on the career path I'm on now. #paleoart #paperart #dinosaur #paleontology #sciart

Gray Bat Skulls 🦇 🌿 I've made these specially for the Oddities and Curiosities this weekend in Charlotte, NC (booth 200, near the stage)! I was inspired to pick these endangered bats after learning about Fern Cave here in the Southeast. #curio #specimen #sciart #odditiesandcuriosities

“Minnesota's nickname is the North Star State due to its motto "L'Etoile du Nord," which was adopted in 1861. Minnesota is the North Star State. ✨ Consider this fact whenever you're feeling despair at what's happening in our country right now. Follow our North Star.” - Mari Talkin

Millions of years ago during the Silurian period, the Sahara Desert was a shallow sea full of aquatic animals like crinoids. Don’t be fooled! Crinoids are commonly called "sea lilies" but they aren't plants! They are echinoderms, like starfish and sea urchins, and many species are still alive today!

Five jobs I’ve had: - Alpaca farm/mill assistant - Vintage store clerk - Art store shift lead - Custom art framing production manager - Paper artist, printmaker, illustrator Things mostly got continuously better except I haven’t held a cria (baby alpaca) in my arms since, and that’s a loss.

Behold: the printing press my husband invented and built for me, without being asked. True love exists. (Also, MAJOR linocut print restocks coming!) #printmaking #linocut

My niece made me a starfish keychain, my brother mailed me fossils he found, and my art crush answered my email. Sometimes the day can just be good. :)

Am going rogue (making a physical newsletter that’s part of the Patreon/Happy Mail Club perks) against the man (social media algorithms) so nobody can get between us (I can directly tell you about the paleo/curio/hopecore art I’m making and you don’t have to see ads).

Started out just as a thylacine illustration about love, memory, and potential cloning… but turned into more Shipping out soon to B+B Patreon members and Happy Mail Club members! (Links to both in the linktree in my bio!) #thylacine #paleoart #curio #extinctanimals #tiktokart
