I have been touching a lot of grass lately, and have been rewarded with freckles for the first time in my pale, ginger-familied life. On a related note, I need to wear more sunscreen. #Shitpost (I have no clue what else to tag this with)

One of my favorite things about Switzerland is that plants are allowed to complete their life cycle. Nothing is mowed until flowering is complete. This means that even little medians become meadows in the spring 🌼 🌱

missing #InverteFest? why not celebrate a subset of those inverts by showing your appreciation for a subset of bug this #InsectWeek and who is LESS appreciated in than poor flies? 🪰 so varied, doing many important jobs, but people like them less than crop destroying butterflies! old #SciArt

I don't like the demonisation and utter lack of sympathy for invasive species that I see far too often in nature circles. Invasive species are a threat to the ecosystem that they've wrongly found themselves in and must be managed, but don't forget that they're animals that are invasive at no fault--

❗ Don't delay! Place shallow dishes of fresh, clean water around your garden - they can be a lifeline to thirsty creatures like #hedgehogs, birds & bees! 🦔 🐦 🐝 🦋 💧 Add a few pebbles so insects can perch & safely drink too! #WaterforWildlife #Sharetomakeaware

I was lucky enough to experience the gorgeous Spirit Guides installations at the Fernbank Museum. These incredible pieces of art showcase both Southern Mexico’s cultural history and the creative visions of husband and wife, Jacobo and María Ángeles.

Completed a study of Chili Rasboras in time for #SundayFishSketch. Missed last week as I have to move/work slower than usual rn. Working on fish studies might be a good warm-up for my catch-up tasks 🤞🏽 It definitely helps time move at a gentler pace 🐡 #art #artists #SciArt #NatureArt #fish #wildlife

เริ่มคิดอย่างจริงจังว่าตัวเองน่าจะอยู่สักสเปคตรัมของasexualช่วงมิ.ย.ปีที่แล้ว พอดีคุณลก.เปิดตี้วงล้อสีที่อิงจากธงแต่ละเพศวิถีเลยไปจองของasexualไว้ แล้วก็ถือโอกาสรีเสิร์ช+ทำความเข้าใจตัวเองมาเรื่อยๆ พอยอมรับว่าเออใช่แล้ว หลายเรื่องที่ยุ่งๆ ในหัวเหมือนถูกวางลง เบาลงเยอะเลย จริงๆ สเก็ตช์ไว้ซับซ้อนกว่านี้มาก แต่เหมือนมือยังไม่ถึงไว้ค่อยทำต่อเรื่อยๆ Happy Pride Month!🏳️‍🌈 ฮะ

I’m guessing the existential angst level out there is pretty high right now so here’s a moment of calm and this wish; I hope you find the peace you’re looking for without destroying the peace of someone else

Everyone talking about today's Full Moon, the Strawberry Moon, made me think back to the first ever painting I sold. Strawberry Moon ended up in Australia and gained a beautiful circular frame!🥰 P.s. look at all that glorious Moon dust on her!💜 🧪🔭📷🐡

Some of this might need to go towards rent as hours have been scarce at work, with the exception of me having some closing shifts this weekend into next. Shares are appreciated! I'm offering Blender practice comms at a very low price to monthly supporters. Headshot comms and YCHs open to all rn.
