My first oil painting on canvas. It’s for a class, we were instructed we could only use a palette knife. #oilpainting #painting

today's nice #invertebrate

Spring has Sprung and the bumbles are LOST in the sauce

Illustration of a giant sunfish with islands around him and also growing on him

Very inspired by @annfryillu.bsky.social 's recent drawing of a sunfish! Had to draw big guy. What's he doing? What's he thinking about? Probably jellyfish.

complex crab anatomy guide, covering the basic parts of the arms, legs, body shape, and tail.

complex bivalve anatomy guide covering the basic jargons of the anatomy, the shape, shell margin, and ribbed texture called sculpture.

complex crinoid anatomy guide focusing on the different jargons used to describe their body parts like the stalk, calyx, and arms

complex cephalopod anatomy guide primarily concerning the basic anatomy, eye shape, and how some of them are shelled while most are naked

Don't have an invertebrate artwork to post for #InverteFest?

I got you covered. I teamed up with multiple experts to create guides to comprehend various invertebrate anatomy.

Links to the full posts in the reply below.

3 page spread mockups. The first shows a drawing of a stag beetle with labels highlighting its different body parts. The second shows colour-coded diagrams of various insects, demonstrating the variety of body plans. The last has drawings of 5 different types of legs, each shaped for a different purpose.

A couple of page concepts from the book I'd love to create some day.

Former Microsoft executive’s relationship with Jeffrey Epstein comes under scrutiny Seattle Times business reporter Alex Halverson has written about connections between Epstein and former Microsoft executive Nathan Myhrvold.

If the paleo community is going to be serious about Horner’s connection to Epstein, we also have to be serious about Myhrvold’s, because guess who contributed photos of animals mating to Epstein’s birthday book and has been appearing in new paleo papers this year - including the new Spinosaurus.

Here's why this is important ⬇️

I made my own for her 💖 Happy Valentine’s day! #dispatch #prism #fanart

It’s so funny to think about the fact that there’s people out there deferring every life decision to this

Title of infographic: Gift Giving is the Love Language for Ornate Bella Moths “Ornate bella moth females mate with multiple males over the course of their 3-4 week adult lifespan. In each sexual encounter, she will receive a nuptial gift from the male called a spermatophore.” An illustration of an ornate Bella moth, a colorful orange and cream colored moth with black spots, is surrounded by valentine’s presents and a chocolate heart. The tags on her gifts read: TO: BELLA <3 - JACOB FROM: EDWARD XOXO Text continues: “This gift contains sperm, nutrients to help the female lay her eggs, and toxic alkaloid compounds to protect herself and her offspring. She can secrete these toxins from her head when threatened, and infuse her eggs with them.”

“She will consume all of the nutrients and alkaloids from these spermatophores to make sure she and her offspring have the best chance of survival possible. However, she can decide which male's sperm from her gifts she wants to use to fertilize her eggs!” An illustration to the left of the text shows an iPhone opened to iMessage, with an ornate Bella moth on top of the phone screen. Texts from one of her male moth lovers (Jacob) read “Hey Bella. Did you like the gift I dropped off?” And a few hours later: “I gave you my spermatophore pls respond” The text on the infographic continues: “She'll usually choose the sperm of the male who had the strongest sex pheromones - chemical signals used to attract a mate. Stronger pheromones mean more toxic alkaloids, and thus, a healthier sperm donor.”

A Valentine’s Day card that reads “I’d give you my spermatophore any day” with an ornate Bella moth illustration surrounded by Valentine’s presents and gifts of chocolate and balloons. Text that reads “To:” and “From:” is at the bottom of the image. The background is a soft pink gradient.

Happy Valentine’s Day! 💖

Digital drawing of a pink heart-shaped box that says “OOPS…ALL BUGS. assorted chocolates” on the cover with colorful bug-shaped chocolates inside.

got you some chocolates. don’t worry about the title

snippet of a slide about where insects keep their smell/taste receptors: "some on your mouth fingers, some on your feet, some on your butt"

tonight in class we will be talking about ~insect senses~ and all the very normal places you can keep your smell/taste receptors

This art features 100 bees of various colors and shapes. These bees are designed in a cartoonish style, based on real species. The common name or species is written below the animals. Some bees are moving leaves, scraping plant hair, or sticking out their tongues. Some male bees have hairy faces and unusually shaped legs. There are also baby bees that have just hatched from their petal nests. Cute and colorful atmosphere. There are over 20,000 species of bees, so I only depicted a very small fraction of them!

'Hidden' group of gut bacteria may be essential to good health Scientists have pinpointed a group of bacteria that consistently appear in high numbers in healthy people, suggesting that these could one day be targeted through diet or probiotics

My favorite part of this article, in addition to the interesting new research on beneficial microbes (of course! of course!), is the picture that makes the gut microvilli look like hot dogs at a rave.

Some #Dispatch fanart I posted elsewhere already. Featuring #waterboy x #prism having a little date. #waterprism

I’m not arguing with no account defending AI. My grandmother lives in an area being environmentally compromised currently by an ai data center. I remember the color of the lake before they built it and the sludge I see in it when I go to see her. Shut the fuck up about “the benefits of AI” forever.

Today is an important day for this lil creature here "La Vaquita Marina" or in English "Little water cow"

Show your range as an artist!

I picked four cus why not :D

A photo of a white arrowhead-shaped Giant Leopard Moth resting on a wood table. The moth has dark markings, some ring shaped, some spots, these marks look black from a distance but are a deep iridescent blue.

A closeup of the head of a white Giant Leopard Moth taken low and from the front. The moth's slender antennae extend to the left and right of the frame, it's dome-like body rises above the head, the eyes tucked underneath are orange in this light. The body, is marked with dark iridescent blue spots and the legs and head also have some of these markings.

A photo of an arrowhead-shaped giant leopard moth resting on a white sheet. Unlike the other moth in this post, the dark markings on this example are almost entirely ring shaped.

A close up photo of the wing juncture of a Giant leopard moth. The wings themselves are marked with dark iridescent blue rings. The space between the wings is a long triangle filled with these blue scales. The area above the wing juncture is marked with irregular blue spots which shine intensely in this light.

Giant Leopard #Moths, Hypercompe scribonia, were frequent visitors to the bug light this year. What looks like black markings from a distance, is revealed to be a rich iridescent blue upon closer look. Some have spots, and some have rings.

Photo of me holding one of the printed zines

1/2 zine page to be printed on a standard letter sized (11 by 8.5 inch) paper (Back page): THANK YOU FOR READING! STUDY NOTES from → Ch. 25 of Silverthorn, Human Physiology, an Integrated Approach, 8th edition. happy Studying! @BeetleCandy for more of my drawings. (Front page): LEUKOCYTES (white blood Cells) ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR IMMUNE RESPONSES. THERE ARE SIX BASIC TYPES DENDRITIC CELLS display foreign antigen they have ingested, strengthening adaptive immune responses. EOSINOPHILS attach to parasites, Kill them, and are also active in allergic reactions.

2/2 zine page to be printed on the opposite side the paper BASOPHILS AND MAST CELLS both release chemicals that mediate inflammation + the innate immune response. mast cells are fixed in tissues. Basophils circulate through blood. LYMPHOCYTES mediate the adaptive immune response. most are in lymphoid tissues. PLASMA CELLS are specialized lymphocytes that produce antibodies. NEUTROPHILShave a short lifespan, but are the most abundant white blood cell. They ingest and kill bacteria. MONOCYTES are precursor cells of MACROPHAGES, which ingest bacteria, dead neutrophils and more.

printable white blood cell #zine I made to study for physiology+ give away at art sales. It was the first zine I made in this format, so it’s a little rough. I look forward to making some more some time! #sciart #physiology #procreate #studying
