Help it's again

Happy #PortfolioDay!

I'm Christine, I'm an animal fantasy and wildlife illustrator and Environmental Conservation student.

I do a lot of digital art but I'm branching into gouache and loving it ;)

What’s darkly funny is that there’s an old CIA manual about this, and how if enough people do it, it can destabilize a country. It’s still on their website right now after being declassified in 2008.

“Misty Woods”, an 18”x24” oil painting of a dark, closed-in forest with breaks of sunlight and fog. Streaks of light shine through the dense canopy as a small, hidden feline watches the surroundings from a safe enclosure. “Bay Waves”, an 18”x24” oil painting of a bright, open seascape. A large wave crashes onto the shore, as cliffs and clouds sit in the background. “Spring Highlands”, an 18”x24” oil painting of green hills and a stony mountain range. Rocks and trees dot the landscape. Oil painting of a pond on 18"x24" canvas. A golden sky shines over mountains and a tranquil pond, with trees in brown, orange, and red.

Do sunsets count?
Caraxes the Red Wyrm from "Fire and Blood" and House of the Dragon. A long snake-like slender red dragon, his head is similar to an alligators with devil horns and a beard of horns. Mid-stride, he walks awkwardly forward with one wing in front. In the distance is the castle Dragonstone and beyond the sky shows a sunset.

We found a 4th egg in #kakapo Waikawa's nest yesterday and found it was fertile. Waikawa has maintained her incredible 100% fertility record: 5 clutches of 4 fertile eggs in 4 breeding seasons. That's unmatched by any other kākāpō. #kakapo2026 #conservation #birds

How adorable is this juvenile American Dipper begging for lunch? It’s amazing how quickly they transform from helpless nestlings into fluffy, demanding youngsters - usually within 24 days after hatching. Parents still strive to keep them well-fed even after they fledge.

Фея - геміморфіт

#fairy #fantasyart #fairycharacter #fantasy
Перетворення кристалу геміморфіт на фею. Блакитна фея, що створює електричний заряд, блискавки формуються в шар під її витягнутою рукою. В неї пишне блакитне волосся, спідниця схожа на балетну пачку, пласка згори схожа на грубий камінь, і пишна знизу схожа на округлі кристали геміморфіту

Last March I took my Animal Migration students to the coast of Texas to see migratory animals and their critical habitats in person.

A great joy for me was seeing green jays with my own eyes for the first time. As suspected, I instantly loved them.

I finally got around to an illustration ❤️
