Day 20: Meander I meandered into a very loosely based section of river. (The elevation lines are not remotely accurate!) I think its one of those drawings to recreate after more practice. #SciArtSeptember #meander #tennesseeriver #watershed
Day 16: Scallop Since my brain clouds are lighter, I decided to try my new Crayons out and just practice shading + blending. I may not complete the month, but I'm grateful I tried. I'm also grateful for all the different skills on SciArt. You've all inspired me to expand in new styles! ♥︎♥︎♥︎
The amount of talented artists and cartoonists making comics about current events and y'all are STILL USING AI which STEALS REAL ARTIST'S WORK. #fckai #AISlop #YouAreAPartOfTheProblem B*tching about Data Centers while continuing to share AI Slop is hypocritical and ironic. 🤭
I live in a well known racist town. The amount of hateful, ignorant idiots still hanging his flags and confederate flags off their houses and vehicles.... All are clearly too dense to know that our history, we HATED Nazis and HATED Cops. Now, they deepthroat them. #historyrepeats #quotes #history

It should be illegal to buy a company with debt and then sell it off to a foreign owner, but that fight was lost long ago. Anyway, now the Saudis own a truly distressing portion of American entertainment, from Hollywood to Video Games to Sports. This is not neutral behavior. Anyway.

Your Cherokee words for today. The top word is English followed by how it is written in the Cherokee language followed by how it is spelled in English then how to pronounce it phonetically. Guh-Nah Ah-Lay Guh-Hay
Day 19: Star My last drawing for SciArtSeptember as my brain is heavy lately and trying to force myself to draw is making it worse. Double Star / Iconaster longimanus #starfish
$.20 bookmark + $10 sketchbook which will make a fantastic Nature Journal! ( ･ั﹏･ั) #bookmark #cat #sketchbook #astealofadeal
Men, it's on all of us. You see this shit, step up and shut it down. SPEAK UP I don't know about you, but I am angry about this and I REFUSE to let this become the new normal. We're going to have to collectively inform this generation and the next that this, this is NOT OKAY

Nice campaign by the Norwegian Consumer Council about the declining lifespan of products. Enjoy!
I have a duty to the children to raise my library voice and say, "Free Palestine." It is not too dangerous to say. It is human decency. Palestinian people are worthy of tomorrow. We are human.
Such a great group of friends 🤣 giving each other the ugly pants prank Hilarious 😂 and Fun
dear men: having healthy views on gender and all the expectations that come with it is hot, actually

Absolute scenes in the crochet community today. Sirdar have announced their next Crochet Along blanket is Harry Potter themed. They’re auto censoring comments that show support for trans rights or criticise Rowling. The craft community has always been welcoming. This isn’t it.
Day 14: Crescent Cyanotype didn't turn out how I wanted, but we make the best of it and experiment. #SciArtSeptember #cyanotype #buttons #gelpens #beads
Day 7:Fawn + Day 10: Woad (2 days I blanked on + am lumping together like a cheater-cheater-pumpkin-eater) Sorry to bird lovers. I haven't drawn one before that wasn't a 'm' or 'w' in the sky. 😅 (Yes, that leaf hides the other foot.) Fawn-breasted Tanager Pipraeidea melanonota #SciArtSeptember
Day 9: Ivory This, 7, and 10 have been a creativity bane for me, but I finally got one crude drawing out using Penup. This is a Death Head Bug, Eucorysses grandis. They come in a variety of white/yellow/golden-orange too. #SciArtSeptember #insect #ivory
I cannot overstate the power of sharing and gushing about art you like. it is *everything*
Haradoshin! 🐛@haradoshin.bsky.social · 2mo agoPro tip: you don’t have to comm artists to boost and support them. People claim they can’t support artists and creators because they are financially strapped, but they can still boost posts, comment, like, and in general just be supportive! It’s completely free outside of an internet connection ;)
I've pretty much given up on marketing, like completely. And I haven't celebrated an anniversary for the last two years, I think. But 5 years ago I became a published author. I'm still very proud of my achievements. Would be honoured if you gave it a go. www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B09L78SJPN
