Hey #portfolioday, I draw these little weirdos. For fun (apparently).
I'm very pleased to be booked in for my hernia op next week, but the upshot is that my Etsy shop will then be closed for about a week. So, if you had your eye on a Christmas present for a bug enthusiast, this week is the best time to place an order. www.etsy.com/uk/shop/Mart...

This really is essential reading. Sadly, like most topics, those that really need to understand this will probably not engage.

Really looking forward to Black Friday, where everything is reduced back to the price it was before they all found out they could inflate the prices of everything.

My postcard sets make great gifts for bug enthusiasts who don't have enough wall space to display larger prints.

Climate variations over the last 2000 years provide valuable context and help answer questions about how unusual the recent changes are.

Spent a lovely couple of hours sketching dinosaur skellingtons at @morethanadodo.bsky.social today. My sketching style is ever so slightly looser than my insect drawing style. A bit.

For anyone that enjoyed the mantis I shared yesterday, here's the original thread where I shared some progress shots during its construction...

Earlier this year I drew this magnificent Metallyticus splendidus. I'm very pleased with how it turned out. That's all.

Folks, I fear the only way to save the planet is to completely dismantle our concept of wealth. We invented money, and all it got us is shareholders and billionaires. We need a new system.

Panorama made a stupid editing mistake. But compare this to the deliberate and systemic attempt, sustained across years, to ensure that BBC output aligns ever more closely to the demands of economic power. Against your straw of bias, I raise you a haystack.

I'm drawing my 48th (I think) bug, so you might think I'm getting used to it by now. And yet, as ever, having only done a bit of its head, my internal Martyn is telling me, very confidently, that I've forgotten how to draw. Completely.

If you look really closely, you might just about be able to spot a couple of my pieces on the wall.
