"Master of mimicry" Hoverflies like this one are some of my favorite #Insects. Not only do they elegantly illustrate #Mimicry for my students, their larvae are also voracious aphid predators. That makes them a gardener's friends! #FlyDay #Bugs #BugSky #SciArt #PhotoHour #Macrophotography

A newly hatched octopus among its many siblings who are still waiting for their time to come :) #animalart #sciart #illustration 🐙

Today’s ink/marker sketches are of an alert Eobasileus (a Uintathere from Eocene North America) and a portrait of Styracosaurus, a ceratopsian dinosaur from Late Cretaceous North America If you are interested in one of these sketches DM me #paleoart #art

Did you knew that earth is not the only planet with #nothernlights?🌌 Also fun fact, #jupiter has auroras bigger than our entire planet, and apart from planets some natural satellites, brown dwarfs, and even comets also host auroras.Made this last year when I got terribly obsessed about it 🌌 #sciart

Work has begun on the first of the Theropod’s exhibition in April, Ceratosuchops here based on the art accompanying the paper by @neilgostling.bsky.social @davehone.bsky.social and others. Very exciting project to help with and painting my very favourite Dinosaurs is a joy 🥰🖤🏴‍☠️ #sciart #art

I still love mimics. They're just lil guys who like hiding.

Ancient critters

Just realized it's officially been the first full month in literal years that I've been able to get an amount of sleep each night, hooray. Waiting on my (extremely delayed rn) hormonal cycle to find out if it's a fluke or if my new sleep tech (purposely under-sleeping each night) is working.

Made good headway

My mind's council has abruptly decided I will start crocheting a snake so that is what I'm going to do 👍

My #InsertAnInvert2024 zines arrived and they look really good!! I've got them listed in my shop now: www.metrofieldguide.com/product/zine...

After so much procrastination I finally made an art process video 😂 Hope it is useful to someone! ❤️ youtu.be/0sZ1D7pTBFo?...

When I found this insect in the summer of 2023 I called it the most adorable thing I'd ever seen. Not everyone agreed with me. BUT, it's a teeny, tiny, baby assassin bug and I still this it's super cute. (Sinea sp.) Pennsylvania #Inverts #TrueBugTuesday

Eublaberus marajoara, a beautiful rainforest cockroach with an interesting mask-like pattern on its pronotum. I encountered this enigmatic roach in the Ecuadorian Amazon almost 10 years ago, but it is now well-known within the roach keeping community as ink splotch roach.
