overlooking a series of circular water filled tanks of a sewage treatment plant at night. 

lights line a long brick building on the horizon as a blue-black sky is stark behind a veil of thin puffy clouds in the distance.

good night, sewers.
good night, streams.
good night, operations and maintenance teams.
good night, settling tanks.
good night, stream banks.
good night, engineers, scientists, crews, managers, inspectors, analysts too.
a good night for us means serving with care.

good night, sewers, everywhere.

These were some additional simple buildings that I modeled to compose the city skyline.

A figure wearing a heavy metal mask walks through a gray field under a gray sky. The mask is tall and rectangular, the dull green of tarnished color, and covers most of the figure's body. It has one eye on the lower part. The upper part is cracked and striated, with a few patches and holes. Above, a few birds circle in the sky. The painting is signed "Chris Silverman".

Pen drawing of a long limbed creature kneeling on a stone and bone looking arch etched with sigils and other . The beings head has three white circles for a face and the head flares into wing like structures resembling more fungal growths than butterfly wings. The arch contains sinewy and arterial patterns, textured bony ridges with globules rising up from the top of it into the air with the sky behind the creature dominated by a crescent of red and orange looming large in the sky.

Pen drawing of a space-suited figure reaching towards a portal with a multi-eyed and limbed being visible through the break in reality while around them the environment distorts into twisted and loose metal with dangling wires as the portal undermines local space-time. Further away from this distortion, on the right side of the page is a figure with melted features, also in a suit, but hooked into devices attached to the wall that is mostly intact and made up of various pieces of industrial looking equipment.

Pen drawing of a feminine celestial being with a nearly featureless face, black hair and wearing a black collar around their neck with symbols and gems embedded down their torso and along their arms, all 4 on each side. The ones on the left are partially obscured by the copper and white energies radiating from their outstretched left hand as their body flows down into, and between the assorted root like organic shapes with hints of shelves full of books down towards the body. Up along the right side is a large tower of metal and lights behind the being but well in the foreground of a quarter arc of a large portal that vanishes from view being their shoulder with various aircraft in front of it with the entire scene set under a night sky.

Pen drawing of a wooly mammoth skeleton with the tusks engraved with symbols with metallic rings at various intervals while a glowing orb is in the third eye position in its nasal cavity evoking the concept of the cyclops while the rest of its body is in a large, shaggy, furry robe with a few bones showing through and bare skeletal fingers in front of it as it is sitting as a human would cross-legged on the ground. It is surrounded by stone columns, some knocked over or broken, covered in symbols and buried in snow and ice while large, leathery canopies hang between others. All of this is under a night sky filled with stars and the glow of a full moon.

Ink drawing with pencil colours on green paper. It is indeed a sort of owl, in flight. No background, just green. The owl is flying from right to left. Now then. This isn't the easiest thing to describe. The owl body is horizontal, and the front of the owl is sort of like a loaf of bread - its face is flat, white, two little humps at the top, tiny eyes and a tiny beak. From there, the body carries on backwards initially the same size as the face but then tapers away till the end of it is tiny. Under the face, hanging by a hinge, is a sort-of face cover, not in use at the moment, the same size and shape as the owl's face, and with eye holes at the right points. The owl's body is dark blue, fading up to light green with a white streak of light across the top. The wings are the same blue, but each feather fades to a bright pink as it goes along.

New picture. An owl. Sort of.

It shouldn't fall to trans people to explain to cis people why creating laws that effectively amount to "If you have or ever had a penis, you must behave this way; If you have, or ever had a vagina, you must behave this other way" is horrifically dangerous for everyone's rights.

Digital art of a human sitting alone in the darkness. They are in a kneeling position from a side view, bowing their head down and surrounded by monsters reaching out for them. They appear as varying reptilian-like or aquatic-like forms, with giant mouths much like a shark's with large gums, a gaping mouth hole and rows of razor sharp teeth. They have dark blue skin and red glowing eyes, and all of them are lunging and reaching out with thin stretchy cartoon-like four-fingered hands. The only thing between the grasping hands of fear and doubt is that light the person in the middle emanates. The outside edge of the scene is enveloped in shadow.

Picture of my work area featuring several finished pieces of leather. The largest piece is dyed mahogany, while the smaller interior pieces feature a tooling and a dark brown to tan dye ombre.

Antique, dye ombre, and edge burnishing done on the interior dice tray pieces. Now just a couple more steps, and I can get this beauty put together!

Unfinished thumbnail version of a new illustration inspired by the snake lemma/snake map. It’s on graphing paper and we see a diagram of complexes. A snake, based on a ball Python connects the sequence of kernels to the sequence of cokernels. It’s surrounded by magnolia blossoms. I’ve started to color the snake purple with yellow accents and the magnolias that particular shade of pink with colored pencils
