My goal for myself was to make at least one painting every day of the trip. Once I got in the habit of it I ended up painting a LOT
I had a fab time last week in York attending at my first @big-stem-network.bsky.social BIG Event! Great time running a session with @lizahaart.bsky.social with so many fun and creative outputs from everyone! Incredible community and inclusive conference #bigevent26 #stem #scicomm #sciart 🧪 🐡
My new favorite cursed presentation photo! Thank you @canopyrobin.com 💕 @big-stem-network.bsky.social
Spotted my bestie @jordancollver.bsky.social ! Looking forward to @hanachronism.bsky.social s talk at @big-stem-network.bsky.social 💕
I’m bringing my Mollymauk embroidery project to crafting socials at the BIG event so I’ll have an excuse to talk to crafters AND DnD nerds :3 this is the truly important convention preparation
It was time for a Lizah special! I take and all excuses to make microbe videos
It's finally time for the microbes to take over! This is a compilation of Lizah's favorite videos featuring the microbial world 🧫 https://youtu.be/5PJ2UxStIO8?si=j1KTC3NvJdslbemt
Lynda Barry did not squeeze your heart and simultaneously explain the point of all art with the barest of line drawings so you could tell me that AI is "inevitable."
Sam Raimi didn't strap a Super 8 camera to a 2x4 so you could tell me that AI is "inevitable."

An unforeseen advantage of leaving academia to be an artist is that I have lost a big pressure to perform at a certain level at a certain age. Artists start at any age and only improve with time. Plus theres not really a linear type of progression.
I’m thinking of making ‘blind box’ soil bacteria pins. You open a package and 1/6 potential bacteria is inside. Both as a fun gift and genuine way to communicate that scientists have the soil as a blind box and find whatever they find.
Took @lizahaart.bsky.social's advice and went for the stick man approach for my new blog post. The science behind vitamin D! nicolawade.co.uk/2026/02/05/t...
I still often make weird English phrases. Yesterday I asked my husband if he wanted me to “close the light”.
What the actual expletive is that diagram showing. There's an entire bacterium in the gran negative membrane apparently... Think I'll keep my job for a wee while yet. #sciart #microbiology
I've recently started reading the Realm of the Elderlings series for the first time and I've never fallen in love with a book series so fast! Here's some Fitz + The Fool
