Day 2 of #Nudivember Cerberilla tanna ref by carporali on iNaturalist

Day Two of #Dinovember Spicomellus ... life is doing a number on me right at the beginning of the month, this time. So this spiky buddy was a real chore to get done... But here he is. I imagine if he was in a game, he'd be a halloween coloured variant. #dinovember2025 #paleoart

Day One of #Dinovember Velociraptor I have decided to be more cartoony (and digital) with the dinos. This little one is going on a great adventure. It is a child, and not fully grown yet. #dinovember2025 #paleoart

Day One of #Nudivember Cuthona anulata finding refs for this little guy was challenging, I think it might go by multiple names? Anyway, my dude turned out a little chonky xD

Day 31 of #invertober Death's Head Hawk Moth a good baby. #invertober2025 ref by marek285 on iNaturalist

Day 30 of #invertober Christmas Beetle I am fully caught up & ready to face the last day of the month! #invertober2025

Day 29 of #invertober Red Sea Urchin I like urchins, and especially urchin fossils <3 #invertober2025

Day 28 of #invertober Pearly Green Lacewing I love lacewings. Another one of the critters I wish I could give more time #invertober2025

Day 27 of #invertober American Dog Tick ... so I don't like ticks. at all. and drawing it didn't change that. #invertober2025

Day 26 of #invertober Sea Bunny a li'l orange one #invertober2025

Day 25 of #invertober House Centipede this is my third attempt at the leggy guy... too much segments for my end-of-month brain. #invertober2025

Day 24 of #invertober New Zealand Mussel once again, deceptively simple, surprisingly difficult & time consuming to draw #invertober2025

Day 23 of #invertober Pink Sand Dunes Tiger Beetle it's always nice to get the opportunity to draw a neat little guy I didn't know existed before #invertober2025

Day 22 of #invertober Sea Angel just a quick drawing while my health is still subpar. I'd love to properly paint these beauties one day, though #invertober2025

Day 21 of #invertober Flame Skimmer Dragonfly #invertober2025

Day 20 of #invertober By The Wind Sailor made it all the way to day 20! #invertober2025

did someone say Dinosaur Art Challenge???! ... I guess I know what I'm doing this November.

Day 19 of #invertober Vampire Squid was feeling a little too ambitious and tried to paint the squiddy friend. Mistakes were made, but also important learning experiences. #invertober2025

Day 18 of #invertober Black and Yellow Mud Dauber poor pseudo-wasp has the unhappy distinction of being the first critter on the list I do not find delightful... Sorry, buddy, it's not your fault you look uncanny. #invertober2025

Day 17 of #invertober Blue Lined Flatworm I think this is my favourite artwork of the month so far. Minimalism is great, & I got to use my jelly gouache colours! #invertober2025

Day 16 of #invertober Giant Isopod ... sorry friend, I did you dirty... #invertober2025

Day 15 of #invertober Queen Alexandra's Birdwing Still playing around with the oil pastels - oily crumbs everywhere xD #invertober2025

WIP of day fourteen of #invertober Bobbit Worm Grief support group did a number on me yesterday, and I didn't manage to finish this one. But I'll try and refine it once I have the energy. (also, once again, oil pastels be stinky!) #invertober2025

Day 13 of #invertober Banded Sugar Ant Ant ant, all alone... It needs friends #invertober2025

Day 12 of #invertober Pacific Razor Clam I thought this would be an easier subject, and then I had such a difficult time rendering the shell 😂 #invertober2025 (reposted bc I forgot alt text...)

Day eleven of #invertober Dark Fishing Spider just a li'l guy... #invertober2025

Day ten of #invertober Common Earthworm So cute, so cute! I have loved earthworms since I was a kid

Day nine of #invertober Flamboyant Cuttlefish forgot to post these guys yesterday. Anyway, flamboyant cuttlefish are among my favourite critters! #invertober2025

day eight of #invertober Bee-killer Robber Fly ... so I accidentally used references for Mallophora bomboides instead of Mallophora fautrix xD but I guess they are both floofy #invertober2025

Day seven of #invertober Scaley-Foot Gastropod Today was a real struggle, but tkat said, we made it a whole week! :D #invertober25

Day six of #invertober Buff-Tip Moth #invertober2025

Day four of #invertober Palmetto Weevil What a handsome fellow! I kept it super simple today #invertober2025

Day Three of #invertober Giant Green Anemone This one was super challenging to draw! It turned out more colourful than the reference... 'Twas fun, though. And anemones are so pretty 💚 #invertober2025

Day two of #invertober Red-Banded Leafhopper I saw a cousin of this guy in the garden once, such a pretty (but invasive) bug! Also, switching sketchbook was the right call, I had a much better time today. #invertober2025

Day one of #invertetober Japanese Sea Nettle ... turns out this paper doesn't work for any wet medium, going to have to skip sketch books #invertetober2025

Some more bird art, drawn for the Writing Olympics server in March. Cardinals are such striking birds ❤️

I love isopods 🥰

Magical kitten illustration for the Writing Olympics discord server July 2025 event

Turtles have always been among my favourite animals, ever since childhood. This is the one turtle painting where I think I captured the 'essence' of the animal. This baby turtl was drawn in 2023 #art

I drew this little guy two years ago. It's so much fun to draw in this coloured-pencil imitation childrens book style. #art

Digging out more 2023 discord server art. This was probably the one I spend the longest on - a toady friend who looks right out of a children's book <3 #illustration #art

The last one of my bird medallions. This fancy heron represents the editing stage of writing, which is why they got the red marker. These birds were some of my proudest work of 2023. Bird Clock [3/3] - the night bird #illustration #art 🎨

The second one of my Writing Olympics discord bird illustrations. I think secretary birds are really interesting, they combine elegance and danger perfectly. Bird Clock [2/3] - the day bird #illustration #art 🎨

once again, I am trying to trick myself into using social media 😅 Here's a little illustration I made last year for the Writing Olympics discord server. Bird Clock [1/3]- the early bird
