A 1944 map by geologist Harold Fisk charts a 40-mile stretch of the Mississippi River from Friars Point to Gunnison, Mississippi. Fisk used aerial photos and maps to estimate the past and then-present channels.

Sketchbook spread of 6 colorful fairy illustrations. Each fairy has a different color scheme and design, and they are drawn using colored pencils.

"...we will need to build an unruly open-hearted movement of the Earth-loving faithful: faithful to this planet, its people, its creatures and to the possibility of a livable future for us all."

It's one of the best parts of the series! We've gotta work hard for that future🫶

Brown pencil of my character, #PudgyHorse, a baroque type horse with luxuriant mane and tail and deliberately exaggerated proportions, including an extremely generous girth and short, delicate legs with dainty hooves. Pudgy is leaping in the air in a not dissimilar movement to the Croupade in classical dressage.

Now if only #PudgyHorse could invoke the same necessary fire to help me...

I completely missed that was him in season 3.... woops...

Around mid-season 4 I was like "this is filmed in BC, why haven't we seen any cylons" and then bam number 5 was in the next episode. Nearing the end of season 5 and we've seen 2 more. It's funny how young some of them are!

Omg, I've been going through it for the first time. Love finding the various Star Trek and BSG actors in it haha

More sketchbook stuff. In space, no one can hear you nya

Concentration camp. Hopefully by now it's obvious the goal isn't some ambiguous "deportation plan." Otherwise, why would they need to cram thousands of people into a space? Call your reps especially if you're in Georgia. Be a menace at any town planning meetings that involve this shit.

A close-up of a bronze hand with a cuff of gold foil on the wrist, the cuff is decorated with concentric circles. The fingers a broken off. Part of the thumb is missing. Photo taken in 2024 at the special exhibition "And then came Bronze" at Historisches Museum Bern

A hand made of bronze and gold. It has been interpreted as the earliest proshetic hand for a casualty of conflict, a symbol for the status of the bearer. However, the solar symbols on the cuff suggest that it had also a cosmological significance. Found in Prêles, ...🧵1/2

I'm at the point with my illustration work where I have an aching dissatisfaction. In the past, this was cured by relentless experimentation. But alas I do not have the time/energy for that so the longing will persist.

Painting by Edwin Austin Abbey, titled "Who is Sylvia? What is She, That All the Swains Commend Her?" (1896-1900)

in a dark, vaulted subterranean chamber a figure in armour, cape and great helm brandishes a flaming torch and a sword - over them looms a huge foe, a centipede-like monster rearing up, whose long body comprises interlocking cuirasses and whose tail and many legs are similarly composed of jointed cuisses, greaves and sabatons, topped with a horned hounskull helmet with a dark eye slit. occult symbols are engraved into the metallic torsos of the thing, dark liquid leaks through the joins, and clusters of colourless sinew can be seen in the gaps in the armour.

I am between two different projects for my MFA in creative writing: a novel about a mentally-ill New England man who starts to suspect he's a vampire with suppressed memories or an adult picture book about rodent-Catholicism and unlocking eldritch rodent horrors. I've got a few more months to ponder

Ever wondered where chin folds really come from?

Aw thanks! I block in a lot of these sketchbook paintings using leftover paint on the palette. Those cool, vibrant tones are rare for me, but they're fun

Two pages of a sketchbook. One shows a dreamy landscape in green, blue, and purple. There is grass and two trees and a single figure. The other shows a goat-like person sitting in the open window of a stone building. They are holding a sachet.

Two paintings. One is of a pig with a mushroom tied to its head. The other is of a rat biting a star.

An oil painting of a blue squash sitting in a wooden fish bowl.

Some recent paintings.
