Visiting in-laws who are conservative and Disney obsessed is like stepping into an alternate reality

Realizing I forgot my cheap markers for the trip so I'm suffering in the value ranges I can get right now 😮‍💨

Day 28 of #invertober
Pearly Green Lacewing

I love lacewings. Another one of the critters I wish I could give more time

#invertober2025

Very squishable

Photo realistic digital painting of a turkey vulture perched on a tree branch. The bird's feathers shine with many shades of deep purple to highlights of tan and it has a red face.

Ok, good thing I started this one early enough because it was a project! But I had to do one of my favorite birds proud. It is always fascinating to me how birds that you think of as black are actually so many different colors. Here's my turkey vulture for this month's #BirdWhisperer

I had some nice dainty lines and colors..... but the pens dumped so much paint out :')

New Zealand Mussel

once again, deceptively simple, surprisingly difficult & time consuming to draw

#invertober2025

While working on this with my students they insisted it didn't look like a faerie

#invertober day 22: sea angel
Another faerie interpretation!!!
#art #sketch
