Hi there! I'm a digital artist focused mainly on drawing animals and creatures. I repost a lot of other people's art here, but if you want to see just my art, you can either search for posts by me with the #art tag, or use the following feed:
bsky.app/profile/did:...

Some examples of my work:
A drawing of a female western bluebird. A geometric, circular pattern is behind its head, resembling feathers and colors from the bird. It's standing on an orange stump, the background is an orange gradient. A digital drawing of cumulus cloud rabbits. There are 2 rabbit clouds running along a hilly green landscape. They're spawning smaller clouds, and some cloud bunnies, behind them. A digital drawing depicting the different oryx species. Top left: Scimitar-horned oryx. Top middle: Gemsbok oryx. Top right: golden oryx (not its own species, but a color morph of the Gemsbok). Bottom left: Fringe-eared oryx (subspecies of the East African oryx). Bottom middle: Common Beisa oryx (subspecies of the East African oryx). Bottom right: Arabian oryx. An information sheet about a species of phoenix called the Common Phoenix. Looking like sort of a cross between a chicken and a peacock. Image in the bottom left is the phoenix in a walking/standing position, tail splayed out behind it like a peacock's. Image in the top right is the phoenix in flight. Bottom middle contains images of 3 different types of feathers from this phoenix. Unfortunately there is too much text in the image to put here. But there are 3 sections of text. Top left is the main title: "Common Phoenix - Fire Elemental". These phoenix are the manifestation of wood burning fire that burns at temps between 1110℉ - 2550℉. They only burst into flame when they die. As adults their internal temps start at 135℉, which rises through their life. Middle section: "Life & Death". Phoenix can either manifest spontaneously, or hatch from an egg. Middle right title: "Feathers & Farming". Phoenix feathers are highly prized and the phoenix is farmed mainly for these feathers.

Some of my favorite pieces from this year. 2025 was a bit of a slow year for me, didn't get as much done as I had wanted. My goal is always to do at least one piece a month, for 2026 I'll just keep that same goal, hoping for a more productive year! #art
A pattern design with forest themed animals and elements, including pine trees, an elk, bear, crow, owl, woodpecker, fox, raccoon, squirrel, lizard, and various smaller elements such as mushrooms, pinecones, seeds, insects, and an isopod. There's also a (not so secret) bigfoot in there. The background is a pale green. Drawn February 2025 A digital drawing. There's a teacup sitting on a plate, across the middle of the cup are bird feet, along the top and bottom of the cup, as well as around the edge of the place, are bold stripes. Inside the cup is a reddish tea, there are steam lines rising from it. Sitting on the edge of the cup is a chickadee looking bright and happy There's a teabag label hanging out of the teacup, on the label is the image of a feather. There's a silver spoon on the plate, in front of the plate and to the left are 3 sugar cubes stacked together. Drawn April 2025 A digital drawing depicting the thick-billed raven in various positions. At the top is the bird in flight with its wings spread, middle is a close-up of its head with its beak open. Bottom is standing. Around the edge is a border design. Drawn October 2025 A digital drawing of dinosaur shaped sugar cookies, each with colorful marbled icing along with white icing details that are holiday themed.

Photos from today's walk (thread): Tiny self-portrait, reflected in a duck's eye.

Closeup of the head of a male mallard duck, framed such that one eye and green feathers fill the entire image. The eye has the (very tiny) reflection of me standing on a dock, in silhouette, backlit by the morning sun. The bright green feathers are dotted with tiny water droplets.

writing down the names of these birds before I forget. That's golden spotted ground dove on the ground, the brown and black medium ones are band tailed seed eaters, and the little ones are dark face ground tyrant. might add some more
fantastical drawing of a cactus, colored in bands almost like a sweater or a knitted sock. several small birds are sitting on and around the cactus and on the top of its stems. both the cactus (Weberbauerocereus) and the birds are native to mountainous regions of Peru and Bolivia

Growing up, a bakery in my town sold dinosaur shaped sugar cookies with colorful marbled icing. Decided I wanted to draw them, and since it's the end of the year, give them a festive twist! Happy holidays! Hopefully there are cookies in your near future. #art #artistonbluesky #festive #holidays

posting just so I don't forget the name of this fantastic animal again: the land snail genus Whittenia is doing the horrible (said with deep and pure love) Nipponites heteromorph thing with its shell. maybe the worst shell on a currently living thing I've ever seen (I love it)
drawing of an extinct Nipponites ammonite, with a highly irregular shell shaped like a knot photos of Whittenia vermicularis snail shells by Foon et al 2017. they are irregularly coiled and worm-like in their shape

I lived thru the end of public smoking. Early in my career I presented to city councils who were smoking, in front of audiences who were smoking.

Smoking in restaurants, airplanes, hospitals…

All of that seems insane now, but it was very controversial when we DID change it.

We CAN change things.

Lately I’m exploring my artistic side as a separate entity from my scientist side. Most of my paintings combine both, and sometimes there is pressure that my art needs to teach. I’m having a great time creating space art that’s just…fun! First layer on the star candy today (took about ~3 hours).
Oil painting in progress on easel. Mason jar filled with orange, pink, and purple gummy star candy. There is a sunflower outline on the glass. Four pieces of candy are in the front left of the jar.
