While I wait on the local university to get back to me I want y’all to know that my Tupperware of giant beetle larvae on the counter has the exact same vibes as cat distribution system kittens temporarily housed in the bathroom

Gorgeous giant beetle grubs I’m trying to ID. Time to go find out about beetle grub care lol. There’s so much suburban development in my county that the more unusual and uncommon bugs are really special so I really want to help these guys out. I am thrilled big beetles breed on our land!

Hey entomology bluesky! I’m in piedmont Georgia (US) and this massive oak log just came crashing out of one of my trees. Does anybody have any idea what these huge grubs are? The only huge beetles I know locally are unicorn beetles. If they ARE big beetles I want to know how to keep them safe!

Trying to figure out if my partner can keep their Animal Crossing NH island on our old Switch 1 in order to play with me on our Switch 2 if I buy a new physical copy of Animal Crossing yet we're both under the same nintendo account has me like

My favorite color in all creation is blue. Like Ford's Bright Island Blue (my truck's color). ...all of my work is in warm tones. WHY DID NATURE HAVE TO BE A THOUSAND SHADES OF RED/YELLOW?

Please get this book. we are so close to funding and I worked so hard in it. I promise you will like it and even if you don’t, there are probably other things you can use it for. Use it as a coaster, use it to level your wobbly table. So many possibilities www.kickstarter.com/projects/iro...

One life eclipses another; Smilodon takes down a whitetail deer. Inspired by petroglyphs, cave art, and ancient Scythian art. It's weird to think that the whitetail deer survived the ice age and made it to the present but many of its predators did not. #art #smilodon #paleontology #rockart #deer

Get confirmations the person is who they are through multiple channels if at all possible. I at least will not mind confirming in multiple places given scams. Check the spelling & also check for sly use of letters; lowercase L and uppercase I are identical online for example.

friend shared this, immediately updated my settings

"Lord of Plains" - faux woodblock/linocut style art of a heavily stylized Przewalski's horse. Intended as part of a series with the Lord of Meadows piece. #art #horse #wildhorse #fauxlinocut #linocut #illustration #printmaking

"King of Meadows" - Prospective printmaking design. I'm not sure how large this would need to be nor if I'd need to do woodcut or linocut. Or if it'd be better off being screenprinted. But...whatever I decide in the far flung future here's the art for it. #art #printmaking #megaloceros #pleistocene

Never walk into a cage willingly. If you're already in one: break out. Digital faux linocut. Another plan for the future. #art #tiger #quotes #fauxlinocut #printmaking #linocut

I programmed my vocal keys in Path of Titans to my artist shortcut remote so I didn’t have to fool with the sound wheel using a controller. Exact same vibe as this gif.

FANTASTIC NEWS! I contacted INPRNT and asked about whether or not this piece would be allowable. I have confirmed it does NOT violate content guidelines and as such "Full Circle" is now available as prints and a sticker! #bskyNightMarket #prints #lion #art www.inprnt.com/gallery/pala...

...I want to make cave art/petroglyph art on the haunted (and rusted out and twisted and crushed) horse trailer I can see through the woods from my studio window. ...time to research graffiti and street art materials, surfaces, and what-I-don't-knows.

Check out this amazing bird we made (I work on it's silicone feet a lot and was on a lot of the car/road shots): youtu.be/3HQ-HrwIgOc?...

My youngest and most perfect son. (Theoden’s not used to sleeping alone. My prize tiger plush seems to be filling in ok these days.)

Flashback to last year’s Halloween display. We do it inside because we have no outdoor sockets and no one can see the house anyway. My heart just wasn’t in decorating this year. I think that’s ok. Warning: extremely annoying cringe Halloween music that I love lol

I did not expect the -phenomenal- response I've had to my last two pieces; especially the petroglyph one. I need to go for a walk to clear my head and figure out how to respond to the crazy outpouring of support. I'm not sure I've ever received that many comments in one shot! You are all incredible💙

This is probably the largest art I've made in a long time; it's 16x48 inches at 300dpi. All of the animals are inspired by petroglyphs and cave art from around the world on top of the shapes found within the animals themselves. #art #caveart #petroglyph #deer #wolves #ravens #raven #wolf #elk

I'm cold, I'm tired, I have a game plan to fix my guts after antibiotics swapped problems, the world is bad, my friends are in danger, so now I'm gonna eat dinner and watch space documentaries until I can't stay awake any longer.

Tumblr has my favorite art compliments by a country mile.

I have to leave for a doctor's appointment in twenty five minutes and I feel like I'm waiting for an execution because there's nothing you can do in that time span but waiting is FOREVER.

I could go the rest of my life without seeing any more art or mentions of the story of the dog Laika that the soviets killed for their space program. Every day I live partnered with a dog that we each speak to each other as ordinarily as any two humans do. The language is different & we can argue--

Unfortunately this one can't be made into prints for blatant violence (my work usually skirts it; not today), but I can likely get them made elsewhere if there's demand. Did you know lionesses will sometimes take out their males when the pride is under intense pressure? That's pretty cool. #art

I still find it ridiculous by the way that traditional entertainment mediums can be so much more violent than this art and be sold to the general public with basically no resistance, but I can’t sell this via any print on demand service because it’s “graphic violence” and against TOS.

I'm getting itchy to try animation but CSP only gives you one second's worth unless you shell out for Pro. >:/

www.youtube.com/watch?v=eB9J... A truly beautiful short; incredibly well done and folding the ancient world into ours. It IS our world...just the old part. Hopefully the thumbnail is convincing enough to watch it I don't want to give it away. It's only about seven and a half minutes long.

Tried out one of @palaeosinensis.com's mask patterns with some modifying of the ears for my own sona with @sugarmouse.bsky.social today! Was super fun to make and figure out how everything connected 😂 Highly recommend checking them out!! www.paleopanthera.com/masks #art #mask #animal #cat

I love your mask patterns!!! They've been the fuel for so many of my own creative endeavors!

God right now? Being cheered on and getting shoutouts is almost as good as gold. I make a lot of work in a vacuum; especially the mask patterns. It's just me and Theo and cats alone plucking away at art most hours of the day.

The GPU has indeed been necromanced. BY WHAT DARK WIZARDRY WE KNOW NOT but it is functioning. Whew! Okay! Yeah!

Ahahahahah the GPU is shot. God. Dammit. GOD DAMMIT.

Hehehehehe My computer doesn’t see my graphics card Hehehehehehe What the fuck life (I am getting competent technological assistance)

youtu.be/UgvE_gPi7Kc?... This is actually important to Georgians; Mr. Hank Green explains what an incoming special election is for, how it works, etc. Basically: a tiny portion of voters can protect all of Georgia against Georgia Power serving itself over serving its captive customers.

Researching rock art hasn't become quite a nightmare because I know how to adapt my search terms, but gone are the days of simple image searches for cave paintings and petroglyphs. I don't understand inventing so many AI fakes when you have the full wealth of archaeology to turn to.

The monstrous forms of two characters from a continuity that will never see the light of day. I’m still playing with Verūk’s demon design a smidge (right) but the real breakthrough was an angel’s form I didn’t hate. #art #sketch #sketchbook

Any other artists out there turn around and fold in human subjects in equal measure to your animal-based ones or pivot to humans later in your art career? I'll keep making creature art to the end of my days. But man. I should've practiced drawing people way more by now. I need to fix this.

I'm not sure I've ever seen as much suffering in my own backyard as I have this year. People. Pets. Families. Their homes. Their livelihoods. Their support. Their basic sense of safety. That safety changing sometimes daily. I don't have words. It fills me with a dreadful awe. None of this is right.

I started this project a zillion years ago when I wanted to do a cave art pin set. Since my country is a dumpster fire that's not happening, but I DID finally finish the Megaloceros. #bskynightmarket #paleontology #anthropology #archaeology PaleoPanthera.redbubble.com

I am still making art. Sorry for the deluge of text only posts and stress. Going to try and get back to several people today. I’ve thought about Oberon’s last day every day since it happened. Dreamed about him last night again. It’s made waking up and starting the day feel strange.
