I know in my heart that where I live we don’t get real fall weather until mid-November, but mentally, I am this pony.

The last of the giant flower beetle saga...

Mecynorrhina Ugandesis

The very first one I ever reared, although they were a black-orange variant. I think the blue-pink is so iconic on them though

Finished this one today. It will go to Cline House gallery after it dries and is varnished.

#botanicalart #bloomsky #invertibrate #painting #watersolubleencaustic

Water soluble encaustic painting of a cluster of ghost pipes growing out of a black background. These plants are parasitic on fungi and have no pigment. The pipes in the painting have blue and pink shadows because that's what I saw in the field. A bumblebee hovers nearby because these are flowers, bees polinate them.

I've been waiting all year to repost this 🎃

A pumpkin patch in a variety of shapes and colours, some with carved faces with different expressions. Between the pumpkins are black and white cats, crows, frogs, bushes, twigs and mushrooms.

Though it’s still quite hot, I saw the first patches of goldenrod blooming along the road this week – almost time to break out my plaid flannels and dance with the scarecrows~

fun fact in the tarantula keeping hobby it is generally known that you should NOT give terrestrial tarantulas more than a few inches of headroom above the soil because they WILL climb the walls and they are very fragile and can simply BREAK AND DIE if they fall too far

Birb.

I got to see a live one this month!

I went with the light morph for the illustration, but the dark morph is SO PRETTY.
