I hope everyone had a Happy Halloween! 🧡🎃💜 It's a bit of a tradition for me to draw my OC Idem. 💜 I had a lot of fun with this piece, Especially the hawkmoth! :3 #art #OC #OCsky #Halloween #Idem #cuteart

I need to draw

Weedy Sea Kingdra, drifting alone 💜🪸 The colours look a lil washed out compared to how it looked on my drawing tablet >< I have some spooky season art in the works too! I've just been swamped irl so I haven't been able to draw as much. #art #pokemonart #pokemon #seadragon #kingdra

Innocent little friends #Invertefest

I met & rescued this lovely little guy yesterday. They were a little too adventurous and had ended up stranded on a bridge, with a very long fall to the water below and no greenery in sight. I was really drawn in by their beautifully vibrant body. 💜🐛 #photography #invertefest #bugs #inverts #larva

This is a PSA for anyone who follows artists: Your comments are NOT annoying! I think I speak for many of us we are starved for praise on our work so please if you have something to say lay it on thick WE LIKE IT. I promise you it is not seen as cringe or a bother, we love the interaction!

Bug time!! Got this one done just in time for #Invertefest ~

i love you beginner artists. i love you even if you're trying to learn art in your 60s. sharing your art can be scary if you are new to art and learning, but don't ever let mean people stop you. your art is important and beautiful because it's yours. keep creating, now more than ever.

A black locust unicorn! Undecided on a name. I started this art piece several months ago, but I was too burned out to finish it. Finally it's complete. 💜 For me, it represents freedom. 🌸🌿 #art #unicorn #creaturedesign #OCsky #OCart #OC #characterdesign #fantasy

Anyway here's a roach with an m&m

Hahaha, I love this photo of a snake nerd researcher from the Phoenix Herpetological Society using a fake leg to step on rattlesnakes & see how likely they are to bite. He "stepped" on 175 of them, and was bitten by only SIX. Snakes desperately want to just get away! 🐍🧪 www.npr.org/2024/05/17/1...

If you’re chronically ill, don’t play through the pain. Don’t push your body when it’s crying out for rest. Slow down. Take a break. Give your body what it needs. Ableism teaches us that rest is weakness, but ability to rest is actually a strength.

Met this pretty little friend recently. I love getting lost staring at the tiny details and intricacies of small bugs 💜 I hope one day I can afford a macro lens so I can study them in even greater detail. #inverts #photography #bugsky #bugs #grasshopper #macro #invertefest

very true statement #art #comic #sharks

I have returned after a several month burnout and hiatus! 💜 Drew this tiger beetle buddy for my best friend's birthday - meeting them is probably the best thing to happen to me this year. 🪲💚🧡 #art #traditionalart #inverts #bugs #beetle #flower #sciart #bugsky

A newly-emerged cicada, I think Platypedia sp., in the Pryor Mountains of Montana a week ago. It still has a bit of its teneral (just-molted) coloration - note the turquoise highlights on the wing veins - but the overall colors will darken as the exoskeleton hardens. #insects 🐙🌿📷

I don't do a lot of pixel art, but I did this last year c: 💜 I love dandelions. They're wild, resilient, and beautiful. They greet each day with vibrant joy, and carry their dreams for the next generation on the wind. 🌼 #art #pixelart #sciart #dandelion #botanical

It hid after I took the first photo, I'm sorry little fella I didn't know you were camera shy xD 🪲ID Guess: Garden Jumping Spider #bugsky #ozinverts #wildoz #spider

Helped a snail cross the road and wanted to draw one 💜🐌 This luminous little friend is hanging out on a charcoal burner mushroom! 🍄🍂 #inverts #art #bugs #bugsky #snail #sciart #fungifriends

My pet gar that I donated to Shedd Aquarium would recognize me and swim over to say hi when I visited her exhibit ❤️🐠 A rare hybrid gar, I raised her since she was 2 inches long, and had to re-home her when I moved to Chicago. I was happy I could visit her in her new home! TO BE CONTINUED…

Met this gorgeous wasp the other day 💜🐝 I petted their back and got gently kicked. They were really focused on nibbling on the flower. #photography #wasp #inverts #bugsky #bugs

Hey loves, I know I've been off the radar. It's been a difficult year. My partner and I split up, I'm dealing with complications from my surgery back in January, and I'm still mourning the loss of my cat. I'm trying to ease back into art but I've been a bit of a recluse. 💜 ;;

Valley Carpenter bees and their fun sexual dimorphism for #invertefest

It’s #InverteFest again! 🧪🐡🦋So here is my bee (and other pollinator) propaganda for Manufactured Ecosystems. Thinking about the future of pollination and seeking solutions from technological and nature-based knowledge. This is essentially my conclusion: we can aid our beleaguered pollinators 🧵

Oh wow, it’s a strawberry cow! 🐮 🍓 #cute #animals #procreate #kawaii #pastel

I am a bundle of contradictions, but maybe that's okay. 💜🌼🐈‍⬛ New OC(s)! Rune is a chimera cat and Buttercup is their ball python tail. Buttercup is affectionate and gentle, and often cozies up in Rune's fur to cuddle. 💜🐍 #art #OC #OCsky #OCart #snake #cat #chimera #herps

Happy International Asexuality Day!!!🖤🩶🤍💜

After three days of freezing rain, everything is coated in ice. The wind and lightning were non-stop the last few days, but thankfully we didn't lose power. 💜 #photography

Heya friends - taking a little health break, because posting every day has been taking a toll on my health. I was starting to get really burnt out. I don't want to treat myself like an art machine, I want to love the act of creating, not feel suffocated by self-imposed deadlines. 💜💜

you are invited to their party!

I asked myself, will drawing a slug cheer me up? Yeah! It did! Slamming a bunch of iNaturalist photos of slugs in my face really helps! I fucking love slugs! #Art #SciArt

I'm really sick again so I'm going to be taking it easy. I barely have the energy to be out of bed ;; Take care of yourselves, friends 💜💜

This piece I shared a few months back is one of the designs available in the shop! You can check it out at agalaxygallimaufry.com/collections/... 💜✨ #artist #smallbusiness #artshop #landscapeart #nightsky #starrynight
