For Valentine’s Day I made this little bird sculpture for my wife. Resin 3D printed body and brass legs. It’s based on some vintage Scandinavian birds she’s been eying.
Merry Christmas from my buddy, Taters! Look at that little smile

It’s #fossilfriday again and here’s a tiny tailbone from a yet to be identified Triassic specimen I recently prepped. I think I leveled up on prepping those paper-thin fins!

New #paleoart on #FossilFriday: #Tiktaalik sees the world. Discussions of early #tetrapods often focus on limbs and lungs, but major changes also took place in their eyes. Seeing further and clearer than any animal before, they were the first to clearly see sunsets, stars, and the moon. #sciart

'Face of the Moon.' (1797) John Russell was the finest British pastel artist of his time. One of his sitters, the astronomer William Herschel encouraged him to buy a telescope, and with this he produced a number of remarkable pastel drawings of the moon.

I just learned about this from the Spooky Lakes book by @geodesaurus.bsky.social. It’s awesome and full of great art!
Lake Kaindy is a valley lake made by flooding in Kazakhstan, whose water is so cold that it preserved the spruce trees that grew in the valley for over 100 years. Underworld environmental design drop for you!
