WIP - guess Im not quite done with bats for the year yet... #microbat #fatbatfriday #biodiversitymatters

Final serve (some what delayed so I made it a triple scoop) of #fatbatweek 2025, late enough to celebrate being amidst #BatWeek! (and shout out to the finalists of the Australasian Bat Of The Year hosted by the Australasian Bat Society)

Aaaaah! I have invested in 10 different Bat designs printed on Wood that can be used as tree ornaments, or keychains, or any decoration that is pendulous! This is one of the demo proofs – I must wait to share for when the manufacturer has created the actual items.

A full herd of carousel horses + roundabout, hand carved by a collaboration of a carousel artisans, ornamented with as many of the 1500 known species of bat as they can aesthetically fit on them (& associated botanica). Visitation by appointment after any donation to bat rescue/research/education.

#versatileartist is versatile. Can't stay in a lane, won't stay in a lane.

Here are instances of my Wednesday Twitch sketching practice (twitch.tv/papertigress 9-8.30am AEST almost every week since 2019). I don't archive them, the vids are up for a fortnight then return to the aether - but my sketchbooks grow fat with images & my skill stronger for the repetition.

It is so empty in here... Here are some of my Friday Twitch painting practices (twitch.tv/papertigress 9-8.30am AEST almost every week) I think I'll focus this account to be my more mundane genre of art and @papertigress to be my TTRPG illustrations...

So I'm aiming to rebrand to get all my usernames cohesive across platforms (it's only taken *forever* as it feels such a big job...) I'll be active under both here for the next year but will be nudging activity across onto this account bit by bit.
