Pair of Sachicasaurus vitae, splashing around 124 MYA in the waters over what will someday be Colombia. Included a color rough in the thread- this piece was relatively painless thanks to that step and definitely something I always need to remember to incorporate! #paleosky #sachicasaurus #paleoart

#InsertAnInvert2024 Subterranean - Stygofauna Stygofauna are creatures that live in watery ecosystems underground. Their environment is often low in nutrients and oxygen, making them live slower, longer lives. 🎨 🐡
may be a bit late, but for #InsertAnInvert2024 if anyone wanted to see one of the few photos of Bathynellacea, here's one from Mongolia! @drkmabrams.bsky.social @franzanth.bsky.social
Anaspides, an unusual #crustacean from the superorder #syncarida. These animals are really cool and are frequently found in alpine pools in Tasmania, though syncaridans are also found in streams in cave systems and groundwater elsewhere. #ArthropodArt
It took us 3 days of slowly driving around Dryandra Woodland in WA until we finally spotted our first Numbat, such a great experience! rachelhollis.com/product/numb... #numbat #wildlifeart #art #australia
New account because I needed a break from social media and the other one was getting insane with bots. Here's a recent lichen painting: #sciart #oilpainting
Astounding traditional Chinese artworks of the Cretaceous invertebrates from the Jehol (远古小精灵系列), featured at the Nanjing Paleontological Museum. Glad to see creative representation of insects in palaeontology.

If you liked the recent green hairstreak, you might enjoy this detail of the pearl crescent from 2021 (longer ago than I realise). Watercolour and gouache on vintage J. Whatman paper from 1940.
Carimersa neptuni, hunting a Platyceratid. Fossil gastropods have been found with the Carimersa fossil, suggesting they may have hunted them. #paleoart #sciart #art
Luther Wells@ultraluther.bsky.social · 2mo agoBeen a while since I did one of these. Tanazios dokeron, a very cool arthropod from the Silurian with a lot of segments (at least 64). #paleoart #sciart #art

A sudden blizzard during the cold season has scattered a herd of Magnamanus; now that the danger has passed, they are trying to reunite by calling out through the forest.Their calls and the colorful “flag” running down their backs aid in communication and recognition among members of the species
Original artwork available via everydayoriginal.com. Pachycephalosaurus Brown and graphite pencils on Hand Book Journal Company sketchbook paper, approximately 207 x 130 mm. Another small page of studies from c.2018. As with others from then, I would do things a little differently now. 1/2
sunbather - digital painting I saw this female blackbird a few months ago airing out her feathers on the hot patio, looking utterly ridiculous
