the first rule of being a professional field biologist is to have fun and give that thing a lick

I don't know how to paint, every time there's a brush in my hand I just black out and my mind goes empty until I wake up covered in paint and possibly blood

Painting dayyy

I'm trying a new comic technique called Make It Bad, But Make It Here's my comic that I thought was funny for the first hour that I made it 1/3

Here's my new comic about how I hate Google that might be based on real events

They should invent a biologist who has good handwriting

Next Saturday at the Richmond public library main branch! You can buy some bird stuff, comics, and other stuff from me :)

Oh yeah! If anyone knows fossils on here - any ideas what this big ol tree like thing is? Found at a site in Belfry, KY.

Oops I haven't posted art on here in a while, sorry about that! I've been busy with other projects. But I did see a cottonmouth for the first time last week so here's that

Digital version of my ink polyphemus caterpillar, now with even more villain vibes. #SciArt #insects

I had fun digging through all your bug observations! So many good ones in there it was hard to pick!

sorry i didn't fall for your bait. i was distracted by the quiet honesty of my life

>"I'm going to do a short little comic to get some practice in!" >5 hours of researching historic sailing and fishing industries later Hm

Staunton, VA

This was a blast! Thanks everyone for making it such a wonderful event. I was thrilled to talk about birds with so many people

I'm realizing that AI art is just how everyone in my family always assumed digital art worked this whole time. There's always been this assumption that I just opened up Photoshop and punched in a prompt with no skill to create pictures, and the computer did everything for me :(

A second one of the trees

I gave waterpainting a try a couple weeks ago at State College Botanical garden's!

Field prep comes in two categories...

#InsertanInvert2024 I chose tadpole shrimp for this week because the first time I saw one was during a retreat at the Arizona Field Station and I thought they were so breathtaking I couldn't believe they were real! What an animal blast from a prehistoric past.

A wonderful model
