Happy Halloween from "murder hornet."

The artwork is made up of many different petroglyph-inspired animal figures. The animals are all moving to the left. In the foreground you see three wolves and four ravens chasing after two bull elk and one doe in fairly dark lines. In the background are similar style elk that use smaller artwork and lighter lines to represent being further away. All the foreground animals have gold foil circles into their design around their heart's location and airway location. The entire piece has been given a distressed treatment.

This is probably the largest art I've made in a long time; it's 16x48 inches at 300dpi. All of the animals are inspired by petroglyphs and cave art from around the world on top of the shapes found within the animals themselves. #art #caveart #petroglyph #deer #wolves #ravens #raven #wolf #elk

These clumsy goobers are my favorite. 💙

Illustration of a Cretan giant centipede - a long, many-legged creature with orange, purple and bluish body segments, pale yellow legs and dark orange jaws.

#SciArtSeptember 11 - Venomous

Whoops, I forgot to post this yesterday.

Cretan giant centipede (Scolopendra cretica). Though almost all endemic mammals of the Mediterranean islands are extinct, there is still numerous unique species to preserve: reptiles, arthropods, plants and so on.

An ink and marker drawing of a squash bee (Xenoglossa strenua) for the prompt, "niche." The bee is facing right and has a pronounced nasal region of its face; I don't know specific anatomical names for bee facial structures (I would guess it is the labrum...) It basically looks like a hairy bee with a big nose. There are squash/gourd flowers, tendrils, and gourd shapes incorporated throughout the art: flowers are mostly on the hind legs+ thorax, and the plant tendrils are mostly background features. Color scheme is primarily greens, yellows, orange, and tan.

Got lost in the squash with this one...
Squash bees are specialists on cucurbits, and I think that's pretty cool and niche of them.

Sept. 8 Prompt: niche

Dunno, but happy you like it!

An ink drawing done with ballpoint pen and markers featuring a rosy maple moth sitting on a pale-brown maple twig. The moth is perched on the twig, facing the viewer, with its typical pink and yellow coloration, and a fluffy composition. The antennae appear very feathery. The background is mostly white with 3-4 grey maple leaves with red leaf venation.

Thanks for the love on the alligator art yesterday.
Starting tomorrow, gonna work on some of this September's prompts; hoping to return to my roots (bees) a little.
For now, another piece from the 2022 collection (6 of 30.)

Prompt: soft

Digital painting of a giant ocelot walking down a highway at night. Lights from a town up ahead lighten its determined face and yellow eyes. Smaller roads are wrapped around its body like swirling ribbon.

Day 5 of #SciArtSeptember: Corridor
Ocelots are one animal that uses wildlife corridors in Texas to get around. This one is giant and destroying every road in its path like a cat with a roll of toilet paper though. #Art

An ink drawing done with ballpoint pen and markers featuring an American alligator waiting at the water's surface, mostly the gator's head; its reflection in the water. Both contour lines and stippling were utilized for the drawing. Chartreuse and grey-greens are the main colors, with hints of copper-brown to further tie in the implied swamp habitat surrounding the gator. There is vague dark blue lineart to emphasis the gator.

Still debating on if I want to try and do some prompts for this year's SciArtSeptember...
While I continue to flounder with indecisiveness, here's one from the 2022 prompts (5 of 30.)

Prompt: mirrored
#americanalligator #alligatormississippiensis #sciart #traditionalart

An illustration of an anthropomorphized black-spotted blue longicorn beetle greeting someone gleefully, waving and raising it's top hat. The beetles segmented body is a bright cobalt blue with some sea-green faded on its abdomen and back of its thorax. It has contrasting black spots on its elytron, faded around its limb joins, and on its face. Its antenna are longer than its body and between each blue segment is a black puff. Its top pair of arms are raised, one holding its top hat up from its head and the other waving. Its one bottom arm rests a hand on its hip, and the other holds onto a fancy cane.

Insectember day 5: Rosalia Batesi
Common name: Black-spotted blue longicorn

A distinguished gentlebug!

Thanks, homie! I'll be on the lookout for goodies. 👀
They are in a little 6"x4" watercolor pad that someone gifted me awhile back... a nice, not-stressful size to work with given the lack of time I have had.

Thank you, Lee!!!!

Psyduck definitely deserves to chill. Thank you, DJ!!

A watercolor and ballpoint pen artwork of the Pokémon Psyduck floating on its back in water that gradients from red to yellowish-green to turquoise. Psyduck is relaxing, as it should be.

A watercolor and ballpoint pen artwork of the Pokémon Golduck sitting on a shoreline, pondering life, I guess. There are wavy shapes/contours incorporated into feathers. Water is blueish-purple and appears as small waves, the rest of the background is supposed to be very vague yellow and orange sandy shore.

Level 32 👉 Level 33
Something quick for my birthday so it starts off nice.

Digital painting of a Damselfly face looking defiantly at the viewer. Another damselfly flies beside the words "Damsel in Defiance"

Never in distress.

Don't let their daintiness fool you. Damselflies are voracious predators just like their Odonate relatives, dragonflies. Mosquitoes beware!

If I have to think about this song and its music video all the time, well...
You're welcome.

Every day, outside smells like someone ran piss through a humidifier.

Yo! No need to apologize, I'm so glad you like it!! I thought about drawing Juniper as Axel again for the throwback, but that would've been nuts haha.

Aw yay, I'm glad you like it! +I hope the woods treated you well.

That is a pretty specific comic-maker-y feature though, so I'd be happy to hear your thoughts on if you think it's worth upgrading in general. :>
