My linocut print of mathematician & astronomer Nicole-Reine Lepaute (1723-1788) in a vertical gradient (bottom to top) of bright pink to lavender on white paper. She wears a wig and gown and the portrait is from the chest to head. Her 12 diagrams of the phases of the annular the solar eclipse of 1764 as viewed from Paris appear across her shoulders. Behind her head in green is her map of the path of the eclipse across Europe.

For day 12 of #spacetober_challenge prompt eclipse: #mathematician & #astronomer Nicole-Reine Lepaute (1723-1788) and her calculated path of the solar eclipse of 1764. 🧪🐡👩🏼‍🔬🧮🔭 #histsci She also worked with Alexis Clairaut & Jérôme Lalande to precisely calculate the date of return of Halley’s Comet, 🧵

Thank you for sharing my work! 🤗 @girri.bsky.social

Thank you! It was a privilege to be there and capture the picture 🤩

I have the same dilemma! At some point, I've got so frustrated😵‍💫 that I switched entirely to painting in watercolor from photos, only recently I've returned to digital illustration, but now I try to emulate what I've learned from traditional media by mimicking its colors abd values!🤔

Fall glow is the most enchanting to me 🤩

Thank you, Tre, for complimenting and sharing my work! it means a lot to me!🥰
It took many hours to make it, I started sketching the idea a few years ago but abandoned it as I've got overwhelmed, only recently I've picked it up and finished in 42 hours.

Alright, the quality of the video sharing on the BlueSky is poor 💩🤦🏼‍♀️.
I doubt that there is a lot of sense of uploading them until this improves.

Graphite and brown pencil drawing of the head of a Tyrannosaurus rex, mouth agape, in profile, facing left. The drawing is characterised by intricate linework and texture.

Tyrannosaurus rex was named 120 years ago today on 4th October, 1905.

I would do things a little differently now, but this drawing is from 2020.

Bright colourful urban street art mural on the side of a city building. The mural depicts a woman in traditional Ukrainian attire with a floral crown, a cityscape on a maple leaf, and the words “Pray for Ukraine.” A dove and butterflies add peace.

Photo of a yellow pumpkin that still has some green and isn't quite ripe, with green leaves around it.

Early fall pumpkin, I bet he's orange now.

“I'd like to be remembered as someone who really helped people to have a little humility and realize that we are part of the animal kingdom, not separated from it.”

The naturalist Jane Goodall died today at 91. Hope, she argued, is not merely “passive wishful thinking” but a “crucial survival trait.” Revisit a conversation with Goodall, from 2021: nyer.cm/F55JtsS

What an adorable gentleman 🐈‍⬛️😻

High Line Plinth commission, Rosenkranz presents Old Tree, a bright red-and-pink sculpture that animates myriad historical archetypes wherein the tree of life connects heaven and earth. The tree’s sanguine color resembles the branching systems of human organs, blood vessels, and tissue, inviting viewers to consider the indivisible connection between human and plant life. Old Tree evokes metaphors for the ancient wisdom of human evolution as well as a future in which the synthetic has become nature. On the High Line—a contemporary urban park built on a relic of industry—Old Tree raises questions about what is truly “artificial” or “natural” in our world. Made of man-made materials and standing at a height of 25 feet atop the Plinth, it provides a social space, creating shade while casting an ever-changing, luminous aura amid New York’s changing seasons.

"Old tree "sculpture at the High Line Park, NY.
I loved this installation so much that I brought every friend who visited here.

Regal Turkey Vulture perched on a tree branch, seen in side profile. The branch extends into the background and branches off in opposite directions. Description from Wikipedia: The body feathers are mostly brownish-black, more black around the head and neck, but the flight feathers on the wings appear to be silvery-gray beneath, contrasting with the darker wing linings. The adult's head is small in proportion to its body and is red in color with few to no feathers. It also has a relatively short, hooked, ivory-colored beak.

Calling all bird loving artists! This month's bird is the Turkey Vulture! 🩷 Draw! Paint! Sculpt! We hope you'll join us. Posting day is Oct 29th.

Thank you! It is fairly easy in Iceland in November; all the light was incredible at that time. But I bet you know that)

But it will use enough energy to eviscerate the remnants of our civilization 👍

Oh god, it’s worse. This is Open Ai dictating to the studios they can “opt out” of OUTPUTS. This isn’t even about the training, as Open Ai thinks it’s all theirs to use for free.

The hubris of these thieves is just obscene. I can’t see them not getting sued for this, it’s just that ridiculous.

4 mourning doves on the roof looking at me expectantly

A line of mourning doves sitting on my roof waiting for the bird feeder refreshments.
I'm not surprised that humans domesticated pigeons so easily.
Many birds come to my bird feeder, but only doves practically camp near it, and look at me judgingly if I forget to serve them

Many roads I have passed through, they all left their mark in me, yet the yearning for discovery is never satisfied, I dream of the paths uncharted.
