#WatercolorWednesday :
Hans Hoffmann (German, c. 1545/1550-1591/1592)
Red Squirrel, 1578
watercolor & gouache over traces of graphite on parchment
On display at “Little Beasts: Art, Wonder, and the Natural World” at National Gallery of Art (DC)

Hans Hoffmann specialized in meticulous nature studies like this one. Hoffmann and Hoefnagel both worked in the courts at Munich and Prague and likely knew one another. Hoffmann devoted special attention to the texture of the squirrel's fur, layering fine brushstrokes of the browns, reds, grays, and whites that he saw in the live animal.” gallery label: “Hans Hoffmann German, c. 1545/1550-1591/1592 Red Squirrel, 1578 watercolor and gouache over traces of graphite on parchment National Gallery of Art, Woodner Collection Red squirrel (Sciurus vulgaris), USNM 612506 Loan courtesy of National Museum of Natural History, Smithsonian Institution Detailed watercolors of animals played an important role in natural history collections.

Carnotaur Totem 🦖✨

This friend will be available in my next shop update coming this Friday at 9am PT! 👀👀

Link for bookmarking: shop.lioninthetrees.com

#art #pottery #sciart
A large ceramic sculpture of a Carnotaur (think T-Rex but has horns coming out of their head over their eyes) done with black underglaze. This piece features sgraffito markings and my signature California Poppies crawling up it's sides and back. Also noting that the dinosaur looks rather happy. A photo of the back of the piece to show more of the Poppies curving up and around the back. The flower and it's stem have been coloured in using orange and green underglazes.

Someone forgot how to stoat.
A comic illustrated with pen and watercolor. A stoat or long-tailed weasel has grown their snowy ermine winter coat. Panel 1: Stoat: "Everybody! Look! Look at me! Stop what you're doing and look at my beautiful winter coat!" Panel 2: (stoat realizes something): "I mean... erm... never mind! Don't look! It's camouflage! Pretend you didn't see me."

A tiny bit of shameless self-promotion because the gifting season is creeping up on us. If you’re after something delicious, handcrafted, and ethical, my chocolate boxes, bars, and treats make really lovely gifts. Treat yourself, treat someone else, or both, I won’t judge! Reshares appreciated! 🍫✨

I'm on the hunt for artists/illustrators that specialise in landscapes and scenery, or who love drawing nature! 🌷🏞️🌳

I'd especially love to hear from BIPOC artists, but this is an open call! Self promo welcome, please comment with examples/portfolio links if possible ☺️

People were arguing in my mentions today about whether the Earth is "round" when it's technically an irregular oblate spheroid and look "round" doesn't mean "absolutely perfect sphere" it means round. A soccer ball is round, a cantaloupe is round, a fluffy borb in winter is round, just go with it.
