Drew this monarch with Pentel Graphgear pencils and a blender. Its wing was torn, its life near the end, but its offspring are likely preparing for the long trip to Mexico. I’ll be bringing monarchs into my 2026 workshops too–they feel like drawings that keep teaching me. #invertefest #sciart #art

Graphite sketch of a monarch butterfly with a torn lower wing resting on a flower, faint wildflowers in the background.

he's depicted here in his younger days, just at the beginning of queen's career (circa 1974). his eyes are fixed on the viewer & he seems relaxed, his arms casually crossed.

I'm very proud of this painting of our cat, Zoey! Being new to watercolor in general and not knowing how to paint creatures did not hold me back! ✨ I'm feeling very motivated to improve as time goes on :)

Necrobatty

Around November 2024 I was in a period of my life where a huge external pressure was placed on me where i was genuinely fearing i was going to lose my home.

Out of all of the stress, i chose to just let my tablet pen guide me to form shapes and horrors that could help me release me from these horrible feelings.

This was one such demon to rise from my wintery despair. #illustration #demon #monster #art

Esqueleto humano con una cabeza de calabaza en lugar de cráneo, el cual sujeta en una de sus manos por la parte de la mandíbula. Los huesos tienen un color amarillo anaranjado que contrasta con el fondo blanco del papel. La calabaza, en diferentes tonos naranjas, tiene ojos y nariz triangular que, junto a una boca sonriente, corresponden al diseño tallado típico de Halloween. El contorno amarillo resalta sobre el negro del interior dando sensación de misterio.

A hermit crab tries to right itself at an ocean reef. It has hairy legs, the largest of which are orange and purple. Its eyestalks are yellow and eyes are black. Its shell is rough and matches the appearance of the surrounding reef.
