My friend rweithy was showing me some vintage book illustrations from Cyril Bouda and there was one in particular that was of an alligator and it inspired me to make this. c:

For 50+ years, "harm" under the Endangered Species Act meant two things: killing an animal, or destroying the place it lives. The bald eagle, the California condor, the American alligator - all recovered because both counted. As of last Friday, only one still does.

a little tiny microscopic dragon, rotifers passing by. I've spent a lot of time peering down a microscope in the last few years, enjoyed taking inspiration from the real tiny organisms to make one of my own.

Watercolour and pencil illustration of a microscopic dragon sitting on a plant root. It's body is transparent and it has two rounded wings covered in beating cilia hairs. It has a long neck and blunt snout with long whiskers. Inside its neck, large jaws are visible and it has tiny black eyes.

The dragon has large claws on its feet, like a water bear, and a long segmented tail hangs down and splitting into a fork at the end. From the root, golden diatoms are growing, and sun animalcules creep along it as a group of rotifers swims past.
