With it being a mild October, we're still seeing Dragonflies about. This Common darter was having a rest and allowed me to get a nice side view...

If you look closely, you can see the moss mantis' newly formed wing buds. Her next and final molt will produce fully developed adult wings.

View of the sea from the abandoned bathhouse.

Pen drawing of a ghostly upper torso, neck, head and shoulders of a bald human emerging from a mass of organic shapes that suggest organs, musculature, veins and other structures. Facing left it is looking with solid white eyes and a third eye towards an area of alien writing and shapes in white on a black background next to what appears to the left half of a viewer facing grey style alien being in an embryonic pose in a container and hooked up to wires and is propped up by the same structure of the background

In fog
beneath
lamp light
in an old shed
I'd sit to write
even in winter
I didn't see
the ghostly face
above
my right shoulder
until the photo
resurfaced
years later
I miss
that old shed
vanquished
beyond bleak
biting cold

EPP ready to join far-right in watering down EU sustainability rules The centre-right European People's Party is siding with far-right groups to slash EU sustainability and corporate due diligence rules, while business leaders and former EU heavyweights are urging to keep climate and human rights reporting rules intact.

Yes, it is more interesting. It made me think about air flow, something i don't usually think about.

A white on black abstract rendering of the culmination of war. It stands with arms flung out as if declaring "look what I have wrought!" Horns sit upon its helm pointing up and outward in a slight arc. Eye slits sit high with a double opening between jagged cheek plates. The effect elongates the helm, an inhuman distortion that looks more devil than man. The collar and pauldrons are wide, overwrought and wickedly spiked. Open mouths scream from the underside, echoes of suffering or cries of bloodlust. The figure is skeletal with one bony foot exposed beneath long flowing tattered robes loosely wound with barbed wire. Lines across the fabric of its chest suggest ribs as if there's no other substance beneath but bone. The hands, however, are tense, anguished flesh with long curving nails as if saying the delicate instruments of war are all too human. Projecting like bladed weapons from each sleeve, the sleek heads of a dragon and a long-beaked demonic bird extend in a mockery of open arm

People often ask me, “Where do you get your ideas?”

I always have so many that I don’t think I’ll live long enough to paint them all...and if I ever experience a shortage, I just have to pick up the morning paper. 1/3

Oops a small typo - should of course read #thicktrunk my
bad🙂

The trunk of this tree takes up three quarters of the photo, knarled and intertwined, with sunlight dappling the bark.

A big Thankyou to all who have visited, liked or reposted.😊
It's another #big trunk tuesday so without further ado here is a #thichtrunk #bskyart #trees

Getting down to some drawing this afternoon.

Using ink pen to draw the trees on top of the monotypes I made a couple of weeks ago.

Inspired by a beautifully misty area in the trees near Burrator, Devon.

Nearly there, I think….

Post from Threads user rodneyowl: "Ireland has declared the Basic Income for Artists scheme permanent. This will be officially announced in tomorrow’s budget. Details to follow. Congratulations to all who fought for it and the present and future artists of all sorts in Ireland. That includes me 👌We’re just comin to the end of a 3 year pilot scheme. It’s been a roaring success. For every €1 paid out to the 2000 participants, the government got €1.46 back. Can’t argue with that. Other countries are already taking note."

Damn. This is amazing. £325 per week, paid monthly, for 3 years - and the result was a profit for the Irish economy:

Love this shot

Good luck.

Awesome talent :

That'd make a cool assemblage painting
