The Serpent & The Rays I painted this as a demo for students at a Zoom event recently and since I get a lot of questions about how I paint shallow water, here’s a step by step! It’s honestly a really fun subject to paint and pretty accessible even for people who are newer to painting environments. If you like this type of content, I have an artbook on Kickstarter right now with tutorials just like this!

i dont know why cream cheese makes such faces

Because everyone keeps asking about it.

These Bastards are available as prints, cards and postcards over on RedBubble.

I’ve had a go at making stickers out of these and it’s bloody horrendous. So I hope you all can suffice with prints for now.

Please also have a look over on my INPRNT store for more artwork x

Happy international wolf day! 🐺 Here's a few favorite wolf art pieces I've made the past few years. AWOOOO!

In all seriousness- I love wolves! many of you also love wolves! If you can, today is the perfect time to learn something new about our favorite predators. How far away from you is the nearest living wolf? Did you know only ~28 red wolves remain in the wild? How can we help wolves?

the cat was sleeping cutely so i took a picture and went to show it to my mom and she burst out laughing and pulled out her phone and showed me a near identical one she'd taken a few minutes before

self-proclaimed free thinkers when the cat is doing a snooze:

do u ever think about corn sweat; and the fact that a large percent of corn grown in Illinois, iowa, etc is grown for ethanol and biofuel; and how solar power would be so many times more effective per acre than this; and how like 90+% of so many rare ecosystems in those states was drained for farm and suburbs (in many cases previously farms).

[passengerpigeons]

AND you could still have native plants around and even under the solar panels.

When you see what they did to the Midwest you'll want to fucking kill the corn lobbyists with your bare hands

[glavilio]

i hate when people defend those horrible monoculture lawns because they don't want bugs outside. like we don't live on planet bug

[pangur-and-grim]

my house is scary at night

[storyweavingspider]

Interpreted this initially not as shelves, but as your cat having erected defensive fortifications

idk if I've told this story on here before but one time I was sitting at my desk at work and a random dog I'd never seen before strolled into my office and curled up at my feet. and I was like oh you are adorable but what the fuck?

then a woman knocked on the door and said "oh I'm so sorry he's a therapy dog he's trained to seek out people in severe distress"

and I was like right okay, just getting my whole life drive-by roasted by a dog then
