Tequila Mockingbird

Oh whoops, I completely blanked on sharing the new isopod illustrations on here??? Anyway, here are Cubaris sp. Rubber Ducky, C. sp. Amber Ducky and C. sp. Cherry Blossom. The Rubber Duckies have already been turned into stickers, still need to set up the other two. #sciart #invertefest

Photograph of a small, round, stocky rat with very small ears and dark eyes. Its fur is dark brown.

Same subject, side view showing a remarkably short scaly tail and dark feet.

Same subject, but now munching on grass while keeping a wary eye on the viewer.

Australian Swamp Rat (Rattus lutreolus)!
Most Australians don't know that we actually have our own native species of true rats, such is that little cutie that I found at Mt Tomah today.

The lepidolite (purple, top left) just found a home, the rest are still up for grabs! Got room left in today's postbag, who wants to join in?

a few funny dragons

my ocs! val fuck seb from behind in a kneeling position with his hands around seb's neck; a beaded rosary is draped around his hands where they are clasped as if in prayer. his expression is not fully visible but his head is turned inward, as if he might be speaking directly into seb's ear. seb's head is thrown back and his eyes wide open, looking toward heaven. his nails dig into val's thigh.

val fucks seb on a victorian couch in a missionary position. they're both almost completely clothed except for seb's pants. they are not kissing, but their mouths are very close together and theyre looking intensely into each others eyes.

val cums on seb's chest while riding his dick. val is leaned back, bracing himself on seb's knee with freckled thighs tightly straddling seb's waist and eyes closed in a concentrated, intense expression. sebastien watches him coolly, but his hand is tightly grasping a the pillow beneath his head betraying how into it he actually is. happy yaoi day!

happy yaoi day yayyyy yay

Painting of a red morph screech owl peering out of a tree cavity. The tree cavity is framed by swirling stylized bark, with a sphinx moth in the left foreground and a spider and beetle hidden in the upper right. The owl itself has orange-brown feathers with a white face and chest, and bright green eyes.

I hear it's #InternationalOwlAwarenessDay (that's a hashtag and a half...) so please be aware of this owl

Yolo the king vulture, testing out the hose spray for a shower. 🚿 He wasn't quite sure about it at first, but decided he likes it!

A macro portrait, three-quarter profile, of the cephalothorax and partial abdomen and legs of a vinegaroon, a non-venomous arachnid that looks a bit like a mashup of a scorpion and a lobster. It is almost black with deep maroon highlights on the body and red-orange sparse hairs on the legs and thick, armored front claws (modified pedipalps). The photo is at night, and the surface of the vinegaroon is shiny from the damp conditions.

🐙🌿 Vinegaroons are arachnids that, like the Amblypygid I posted yesterday, look fierce but have no venom and are harmless to people. Also like Amblypygids, the 1st pair of legs is long & thin and used not for walking but as antennae. This one in Arizona recently was big, a couple of inches; here's--

How the fuck do I counter people’s arguments that migrants are all criminals and dangerous and holy shit I need to figure out how to get rid of gbnews.

A short comic I’ve done for ibenkrutt from tumblr

Digital sketch of Hansry fanart, Hans is laying on the fur rug on the floor. He's wearing a women's chemise (a type of underwear women wore in medieval times). Henry's on top of him, and they are leaning into a kiss. Henry holds one of Han's shins with his arm.

Another #Hansry sketch in my "chemise" series for you to enjoy before I wander off to work on client art.

An homage to the famous textile pattern Strawberry Thief by William Morris. Instead of thrushes stealing strawberries, there is a furry wormlike creature stealing peppers from a Cuban amazon parrot amongst a field of nasturtiums.

I got mad about AI so I made this comic about The Fucking Point of it all (1/7)

A watercolour study of two roses in progress, in hues of pink and red.

After painting against my grain with opaque media recently, it felt REALLY GOOD to return to my DELICIOUS, juicy, free-flowing, transparent watercolours. 😭💐💗

A bumblebee wearing cleats kicks a ball into a goal. Bees watch from the stands while a goalie bee makes a dive for it.

Dedicated to bumblebees, who've within the past few years been the first insects to demonstrate "play" behavior, including rolling a tiny wood ball into a goal.

This is your occasional reminder that Rose O'Neill, creator of the Kewpies, first published female cartoonist in the United States, and among the first cartoonists to build a merchandising empire on their work, turned out some absolutely baller, romantic-feeling size-difference monster art.
