Anyone have any fish field guide recs? Been having fun going through my trove of aquarium pics but would be nice to learn more about the fish. These are all pacific reef fish i think, mostly puffer/box fish family #art #sciart #sundayfishsketch

Painted some mushrooms for #UKFungusDay! #sciart #fungi #illustration #natureillustration #gouache

More #riso test prints. Trying to print up all my central park pollinators. I didnt draw these specifically for riso printing so the cymk ish separations have been super fiddly. Using blue, yellow, fluorescent pink, and brown inks #sciart #printmaking #art

Working on a new #riso print today. Hunter green ink turned out darker than expected so had to do some tweaks. First layer printed with yellow and raspberry #fish #SciArt #illustration

A Sagebrush Sheep Moth (Hemileuca hera) on Mount Kobau in the Okanagan. What a great place to be for bugs! #Lepidoptera #Moth #iNaturalist

I've been working on a lot of apparel designs for my company (Planter App) these past couple of weeks! Here's a design I'm fairly fond of for obvious reasons 🪻🐛🌼🪲

Hi #PortfolioDay I'm a freelance science and nature illustrator from New England. I love drawing native species I find on my walks, especially if they're weird and warty. Dream job would be to work on a non-fiction picture book

Had a great time sketching at the new york aquarium the other week. Could really only draw the sleepy ones while I was there so I maxed out my phone storage with reference pics and had fun with posca markers at home. #fish #sketch #sciart

Really enjoying the vibes here at #SciArt and glad things are taking off!

Another #pollinator closeup. This time a cabbage white butterfly. This might be my favourite flower in the series, and I had fun sneaking my friend and their dog in the background. #SciArt #art #bug #butterfly #InsectSky #botanical

Close up of an American Lady (Vanessa virginiensis) in central park. #SciArt #pollinators #art #invert #bug

Happy #Pride 🌈 Vector illustration pack of native plants and animals in every colour of the rainbow. Made it a few years back, and if you're in Maine might see it again this year 👀 #pridemonth #sciart #vector #art #illustrator

Really big lichens or a really small hiker? I’ll let you decide #illustration

Be working on this one for far too long but I present to you "Central Park #Pollinators," based on bugs I saw in the park last summer. The plan is to print it as an accordion book but it also works as a big ol sign #sciart #bugs #invert #art #centralpark #botanical #procreate

Some common eastern bumblebees (Bombus impatiens) to celebrate #WorldBeeDay! Will share the full images of the whole project soon #bee #bumblebee #pollinators #art #illustrator

Fantastic ending to Baroness Kidron's speech in the House of Lords yesterday, which led to the government's defeat on AI & copyright. Speaking the UK's creators: "Their property, their labour, is worthy of your protection - because apart from anything else, it is not ours to give away."

Folks call your Senators now!! A ban on any state laws on GenAi for 10 YEARS is gonna do unthinkable harm! For those of you wondering what to say here are two posts you can use to build your own script (use alt script to cut and paste) Need to find your representatives? Here you go: 5calls.org

Glad people like this, thanks! 🌿

So excited it's vernal pool season again. Eastern red #newt and some of my favourite moss and lichen (Peltigera) I've seen in Vermont. Original digital illo and #riso print, using my own funky spot colour separation. #sciart #lichen #illustration #art #nature #procreate

More #riso prints from my #lichen close ups series. Both from the genus Cladonia, the one that looks more fingery in the sub group Cladina. Fun fact the tips are dark with the same melanin pigment we have as sun protection for new growth #botany #art #sciart #printmaking #illustration

If anyones in new york, my frogs will be on display at the society of illustrators @soi128.bsky.social now until April 12! Really proud these origami frogs I designed and illustrated got included. All #riso printed by me too! #art #origami #frog #illustration #papertoy

One of my favourite illustrations from last year, showing fish I saw on a trip to the new england aquarium. Originally made it for a two colour riso print but have had fun rearranging bits for some mock editorial layouts. Need to draw more fish #art #illustration #fish #aquarium #editorial

Working on a piece about native pollinators in central park. So many statues and weird angles gonna be a relief to get back to the #bugs #sketch #illustrator #pollinator

Okay, how do you make friends here? Illustrators, scientists, nature-obsessed folk – come connect! I create art inspired by the Earth and my favourites are rocks! Here’s a selection of some projects from the past year 🪨

Slowly migrating over. Stupid obsessed with #lichens so starting with a #riso print from a poster series I did last year of lichen close ups. This ones the tip of a Cladonia squamosa branch. In theory they look like dragons? #illustration #scienceillustration #botany #art #procreate
