Here's the Victoria Crowned Pigeon, a stunning species native to New Guinea. Although tame, it is sadly now becoming very elusive in the wild due to hunting :( Any suggestions on what I should do next? :P Maybe some obscure endangered species? #SciArt #Februarty #artshare #birdart #digitalart

Throwback Thursday to my very first Life List painting of an Eastern Meadowlark. I started this project during 2020 COVID lockdowns and am still going 5 years later! My goal is to paint every wild bird I've seen. Currently working on 141/421! #ArtYear #BirdArt #SciArt #Watercolor

the afterlife of you and me / ink on 9x12 paper / 2021 Happy #valentinesday! This is an old drawing (maybe I’ll redo it soon?) of The Lovers of Valdaro - two sets of 6,000-year-old remains found snuggled up in a Neolithic tomb near Mantua, Italy. That’s romance!

hey, i know her! i think maybe i’ve already shared this illustration i made of the same species (Melanocetus johnsonii). finding good visual information for the piece was tricky, since these guys are spotted so rarely. i’m gratified to see that my drawing is accurate - this video is bonkers!

I’m taking a class on artist’s books and went a little nuts with some introspection on the animals I interact with. It’s called “the size of curiosity.” #sciart
