#maysozoic not #mayzoic. Competence is not my strong suit.

#mayzoic #artyear the esteemed #elasmosaurus, a long necked plesiosaur. They consumed a diet of broken dreams, disappointment and hubris — with maybe the occasional fish as garnish.

A perch. I believe there are no fun facts about perch, they’re just a straightforward fish. Nothing wrong with that, someone has to be a standard by which other fish are judged. #sundayfishsketch #artyear

Formal quadrupeds. #whistpr #dapper #sheep #artyear

Perhaps I should just get a piece of paper and some colored pencils, rather than jumping through hoops to try to make #procreate look like colored pencils and not quite nailing it. #whistpr #tentacle #doodle

Doodled on the patio of my coffee shop. Neither acorns nor capybaras were present. #whistpr #acorn #artyear

Quick dyke sheep sketch, playing with a faux watercolor brush in procreate for coloring. Schnelle Skizze eines Deichschafs, beim Ausmalen mit einem künstlichen Aquarellpinsel in Procreate. #meermay #kleinekunstklasse Reference: www.theorkneysheepfoundation.org.uk/the-sheep/

#capypril 30 and #acoloradaypril “charcoal”. It’s convenient that a capybara nose is charcoal colored. #artyear

#capypril 29 “forest/nature” #acoloradaypril “rose” #artyear

#capypril 28 “time travel” and #acoloradaypril “beige”

#capypril 27 “cozy”, #acoloradaypril “rust/dark-orange”, #artyear

#capypril 26 “space/night” and #acoloradaypril “olive green” and #artyear This is using ideas I had toyed with for maroon and pretty, but just being marooned somewhere pretty didn’t feel like enough.

#capypril “decorating” #acoloradaypril “magenta” I once had a bright lavender living room, because I was aiming for periwinkle and I missed. It was nice with enough pictures and things covering it. #artyear #magenta

Bonus #capypril / #acoloradaypril doodle for “teal enemy”, following on from yesterday’s Doctor Who cosplay capybara I suppose the Dalek should be saying “plungerate” #doctorwho

#capypril 24, not #capypril24!

#capypril24 ”enemy” #acoloradaypril “teal” I assume that whatever disagreement occurred started with the birds.

#capypril24 ”enemy” #acoloradaypril “teal” I assume that whatever disagreement occurred started with the birds.

#capypril 23, “fandom” and #acoloradaypril “silver”. #artyear #doctorwho #k9

#capypril 22 “holiday” and #acoloradaypril “gold” When it happens, we will celebrate.

#capypril 21 “activity” and #acoloradaypril “coral”

#capypril 20, “magic/fantasy”. #acoloradaypril “mint green” (The energy around the Kirby dots, a key part…) #artyear

#smARTist #adaptation #acoloradAyPRIL #NavyBlue #SensoryArt #faces Watercolor of a deep sea bioluminescent fish (reference photo from an old Readers Digest book of animals). A scary face, with all those teeth!

#capypril 19 “pretty” #acoloradaypril “maroon” I thought maroon had a bit of blue in it, but the internet says it’s RGB 128, 0, 0. I struggled with what would make a capybara pretty until I realized he just has to feel pretty. (Almost had him marooned somewhere pretty) #artyear

#capypril 18th, “sour” and #acoloradaypril “navy blue” #artyear

#capypril 17th, “diy” #acoloradaypril (tan, the color is actually a key part today!) #artyear

#capypril 16th, “plant/garden” In the early 1900s there were a number of sightings of a Cactus Cat in the Southwest US. It is theorized that these were misidentified bobcats, porcupines or Cactus Capybaras. Or just made up. #acoloradaypril (flower petals, so just barely) #artyear

BIRD PROTOCOL activated. Take a bird, leave a bird. 🐓 #birds #kleineKunstklasse

#capypril 15th. “Funny”. Capybaras are more straight men than funny. And this is more “mildly amusing” than “funny.” I just blanked on “funny” and just used a leftover idea from a previous day. Capys are more silly than funny. Spectral beings being raised from hell are peach, for #acoloradaypril.

#capypril 14th, creepy. And lavender wallpaper for #acoloradaypril. I was looking up capybara butts on the internet, and decided that I didn’t need that level of detail. Capybara tails are tiny and hidden. #artyear

#capypril 13, season. The capy’s body language is all wrong, so he is staring directly into your soul, and seasoning food with glowing lime green — #acoloradaypril — flakes AT YOU. Daring you to do something about it. I can live with it. Such steadfast insolence.
