#Nudivember starts tomorrow!! Here are the species for each day of November. You can use the prompts to draw, paint, sculpt, embroider, write a poem, song, story or do anything else creative. Post your creations with the hashtag #Nudivember and I'll repost them all!
I'm playing around with painting on canvas for the first time in years. Still figuring out if I like it 😅 Sea Angel (Gymnosomata) in mixed media, acrylic background with oil pastel and soft pastel on top #seaslug
The Sea Unseen, a marine charity art zine, will be out on 8 June 🦑 Delighted to reveal the cover of this year's edition! The artists have done a spectacular job as always, and I'm beyond excited for the release. See you on World Ocean Day! - Mod Circlejourney #marineart #zinerelease #comingsoon
Thank you for the great collaboration, I love the art you put to my words, especially the last pannel! 💖
Here's the piece that @irrlichtwinter.bsky.social and I worked on together! @saimihanma.bsky.social & @franzanth.bsky.social doing a great job as always 😊 So happy it's out .... and the cover 😍
Day Five of #pleinairpril Fitting for Easter Sunday, we got a li'l bunny hopping around on the lawn. I usually do the plainairpril sketch outside, take a photo, and then do the colouring inside. This time, I didn't get a photo, so the bunny looks like an old photo of local rabbit dad Stripey.
Day Four of #pleinairpril I got a stomach bug right in time for easter, so the plainairpril drawings got a little delayed. But I'm confident I can catch up!
Day Three of #pleinairpril Goose I saw on the same walk as the swan. Canada Geese are my favourite kind of goose, I adore how expressive they are with their dark necks!
Day Two of #pleinairpril A swan I saw while walking along the fjord. The next days are going to be more fjord fotos, bc I ruined my feet walking and will have to stay put for a few days 😅
Day 5 of #Nudivember Tambja Affinis ... so I really messed up on those gills... #nudibranch #seaslug
Day 4 of #Nudivember Glossodoris electra beautiful ghosts of the ocean ref by Luc Bourdil #nudibranch #seaslug
Day 3 of #Dinovember Corythosaurus I've decided these guys are going to be candy coloured, to cheer myself up. #dinovember2025 #paleoart
Day 3 of #Nudivember Halgerda theobroma a delicious pancake! ref by Martin Crossley on iNaturalist #nudibranch #seaslug
Day Two of #Dinovember Spicomellus ... life is doing a number on me right at the beginning of the month, this time. So this spiky buddy was a real chore to get done... But here he is. I imagine if he was in a game, he'd be a halloween coloured variant. #dinovember2025 #paleoart
Day One of #Dinovember Velociraptor I have decided to be more cartoony (and digital) with the dinos. This little one is going on a great adventure. It is a child, and not fully grown yet. #dinovember2025 #paleoart
I'll be hosting a #Dinovember art challenge again this year! Here are some lesser known dinos (and some classics) to learn about and draw! Feel free to tag me if you draw one! Some references if you need them: tinyurl.com/8dhta63u Thank you @pyrokittytavern.bsky.social ! ❤️ #dinovember2025 #SciArt
Day One of #Nudivember Cuthona anulata finding refs for this little guy was challenging, I think it might go by multiple names? Anyway, my dude turned out a little chonky xD
Welcome to the 2025 #Nudivember art challenge! Like last year, here is a list of some lesser known, yet always fabulous, nudibranch species. Participate as much or as little as you want in any art form you like. Make sure to use #Nudivember and use alt text!
Day 31 of #invertober Death's Head Hawk Moth a good baby. #invertober2025 ref by marek285 on iNaturalist
Day 30 of #invertober Christmas Beetle I am fully caught up & ready to face the last day of the month! #invertober2025
Day 29 of #invertober Red Sea Urchin I like urchins, and especially urchin fossils <3 #invertober2025
Day 28 of #invertober Pearly Green Lacewing I love lacewings. Another one of the critters I wish I could give more time #invertober2025
Day 27 of #invertober American Dog Tick ... so I don't like ticks. at all. and drawing it didn't change that. #invertober2025
Day 25 of #invertober House Centipede this is my third attempt at the leggy guy... too much segments for my end-of-month brain. #invertober2025
Day 24 of #invertober New Zealand Mussel once again, deceptively simple, surprisingly difficult & time consuming to draw #invertober2025
Day 23 of #invertober Pink Sand Dunes Tiger Beetle it's always nice to get the opportunity to draw a neat little guy I didn't know existed before #invertober2025
Day 22 of #invertober Sea Angel just a quick drawing while my health is still subpar. I'd love to properly paint these beauties one day, though #invertober2025
