My bff commissioned me for a black unicorn at dusk. I got to design the character, which was a bit out of my wheelhouse since I don't do a lot of equines, but it was fun to do something different. #unicorn #fantasyart #creaturedesign #blackhorse #art #digitalart #equine

I've got about a billion photos I've taken over the years and most of you have never seen them so I'm going to start sharing them more frequently. These are scenes from Olympic National Park one winter.

I have a one day show (Verde Valley Comic Expo) later this month and I wanted some new "fantasy" art. I doodled some concepts of this critter last year. It is inspired by a tiny cactus I have in my yard. Horned lizard and badger were additional influences. #creaturedesign #dragon #cactus

Today’s random piece of nostalgic palaeoart: Alice Woodward’s Pteranodon! This is a very old reconstruction, being published in 1912, but the anatomy is quite good for the time! Woodward’s approach to restoring the crest if wonderfully bizarre, looking almost like a hump rather than a crest! (1/3)

@opellisms.bsky.social's borzoi Marte! Based on really neat photo that showed almost his whole shadow. #petportrait #borzoi #sighthound #art

GenAI has polluted image search results, especially for animal pics. It’s now basically impossible to find accurate art references. Enter this: a repository of open-access, AI-free images of wild & exotic taxa. Artists creating *without AI* have blanket permission for derivative/transformative use.

Hours are looking slim at my part time job next week, so if anyone is looking for a pet portrait (or other animal/creature work), please reach out. #commissions #art #artistforhire #petportraits

1. Concept art for movies 2: Illustration 3: n/a 4: warehouse worker/pet portrait artist (my previous pt job was in marketing)

I'll be a vendor at the Kachina Kennel Club's Copper Classic dog show this week. It will be my first time as a vendor at an all breed show, but they have agility, obedience, rally, dock diving and Fast CAT as well. #art #minischnauzer #petportrait #dogs #dogshow #dogsports

Another test I did for PDFC. I recently changed the species on the pet character, so I wanted to do something new of these two. #furry #art #anthro #cynocephalus #collie

I drew some of my OCs before PDFC to see if I could pull off something similar in style and time to my base pet portrait with different characters. This is an acient #StarWars OC petting a #bogling from the Jedi games. #art #fanart #creaturedesign #snowleopard #furry #anthro

Attended my first furry artist alley at Painted Desert Fur Con yesterday. It went really well. Probably my best show ever for sales. I only had a little bit of time to check out other vendors, but when I did I threw my money and dog talk at @zulayawolf.bsky.social Dogs!!! Snow leopard!!!

A watercolor and gouache sketch from a winter trip to Utah.

Perhaps my favorite wildlife photo of all time. Great Egret in the swamps of Louisiana.

Stop Forcing A.I. into Fucking EVERYTHING!

This a lab named Roy doing some scent work. #scentwork #petportrait #art #animalart #dogsports #labradorretreiver #blacklab

I think I could build my career on just painting owls, these mystic and folklory birds are in high demand! Every artwork that contains and owl flies right off the esael. 😊 Acrylics on board 9.8″ x 9.8″ (25 x 25 cm) #Birds #birdart #owlart #birdpainting #animalart #animalpainting #SciArt

There are so many great artists on here that my first pack filled up...I'm working on Vol. 2! If you post your wildlife art, scientific illustration, or other nature art and would like to be included, please let me know! NO AI. #Sciart #birds #birdart #wildlifeart go.bsky.app/Kk8HhoA

Day 9, exploring pigments. This is painted with PB28 Cobalt Blue and PO62 Benzimida Orange. Don't they make a lovely range of browns? #ArtAdventCalendar

New art! Based on a scene I saw driving to work earlier this year. I was able to snap photos for the background reference, but had to find the raven, haha. Living somewhere with snowy winters is such a novelty after pretty much only living in SoCal for 30 years. #raven #art #birdart #wildlifeart

Greens. So many Green. #art #painting #color #floralart

Enjoyed the rocks and lichen on Dathomir. Got this cool shot in a cave.

I don't always game, but when I do, it's probably Star Wars. I downloaded Jedi: Fallen Order and have been having fun. We got to ride the giant bird after healing it and I liked this shot the huge tree roots on Kashyyyk. #starwars #jedifallenorder #shyyyobird

QRP with your header art It's a version of this image, done originally for @instbirdpop.bsky.social 's Klamath National Forest project, featuring examples of the community in the region - Vosnesensky bumble bee, Spotted Towhee, California Sister, green leaf manzanita, and ponderosa pine. 🐡🪶

Working on some new bird art, so here's some old bird art. This #roadrunner was sunning itself in my front yard, so I snapped some photos. #wildlifeart #art #bird #birdart #greaterroadrunner

Since we did agility yesterday, here's another agility portrait. #bordercollie #dogagility #dogsports #petportrait #art #dog

Got a sticker for Mud's Open Weavers NQ at an agility trial today. I didn't have high hopes for 12 weaves in Regular after he couldn't get them in Weavers, but he proved me wrong. Best set of 12 he's done in years on the fiat attempt. #dogsports #dogagility #nadac

Thankful for everyone who has followed me in the past week! Here is a seasonal #cynocephalus pet portrait of a border collie. #fall #art #furry #bordercollie #petportrait

2017-2018, the dog portrait years 🐶 I absolutely loved drawing all the fur, it was great practice. #Dogs #DigitalArt #Art #Animal #AnimalPortrait #commisioned

my favorite barn owl in ballpoint pen and #watercolor #birds

Barn owl in #watercolor #birds

A #serval based on a photo I took at the San Diego Zoo quite some time ago. I just really liked how the markings flowed down the neck and shoulders. #wildlifeart #art #wildcat #mixedmedia

A little lichen forest I spotted on my walk the other day. The red ones are called British Soldiers apparently!

Me when bullshit AI image comes up while im looking for reference images

QRP with your skull art! 💀 A piece that was rejected from San Diego County Fair art showcase. The theme that year was Alice in Wonderland, so I tried to shoehorn a critter I'd been drawing into the theme.

A nice cozy snowy winter scene ☕️ 🌲

Isopod art! watercolor and ink Part of my insect series. Prints available here: www.etsy.com/listing/9334... #isopods #SciArt #invertebrateart #traditionalart

I also drew this guy today! #colorpencil #drawing

Owlbear! Another old piece of D&D fan art.

This was my submission to the 2024 Meeker Sheepdog Classic Art Show this year. Didn't win any prizes, but it was fun to paint once I came up with a super cute idea. #bordercollie #sheepdog #sheep #herding #art #furry #anthro
