Organic certification and food safety. PhD in plant patholgy. I wander around photographing wildflowers and seeking painting inspiration. I'm here to keep up with the times and follow interesting people. I'm not trying to sell anything.
At the Aquarium, 24x36 oil on canvas, 2025. A lot of time was spent posing figures in front of glass jars of water for this one. The distortion of the image changes dramatically when you barely move the figure.

Phantom Orchid, Cephalanthera austiniae. Oil on canvas, 24 x 30. I happened upon this flower before I knew it existed 20 years ago near Corvallis, Oregon and finally completed the painting today. I've only seen it a few times. #art #painting #oilpainting #botany #Orchid #sciart #traditionalart

Nerd out with your bird out. A painting about unapologetic nerdiness. #oilpainting, #sciart, #art, #painting.

I found my first Tasmanian orchid. These are new to me, but I think it's Pterostylis (nutans? Corrections welcome). #botany, #wildflowers, #tasmania, #orchids

Oil on canvas, 24x36. An "odd couple" of spiders are out marching/wandering when they encounter a springtail. The dragonflies are similarly motivated in same direction for whatever reason and the springtail or, something behind it, stops the march. #oilpainting, #sciart, #spider, #springtail

M.U.S.C.L.E. I had these toys as a kid and later found them on eBay. I did several drawings like this when I was procrastinating other more important things. #art, #drawing

One of my favorite artists. I hope to more.

If giraffes needed to stalk prey. Pencils were my favorite for a long time, but now I prefer oil paint. #art, #pencil, #sciart

Okay, so some rough #SciArt Feed numbers.
There are 1,700 subscribers.
There are 1,101 contributors.
Not all contributors may have subscribed, but likely most.

Which means 64% of subscribers can also contribute.

I think I need to do more outreach to other science feeds so they're aware of it.
I know I still have work to do when there are multiple magazine articles about science on Bluesky, and none mention the #SciArt Feed or community.

Too much free time one day this summer. I took tons of these, and it's pretty cool how the fire draws straight to the lens that lit the match. So, safety first. Don't stare at matches until they ignite. The match will try to attack your face. #sciart, #art,

This is my alien vacation painting. It's oil on canvas, 24x36, 2024. I might finish a couple of paintings a year, and I have about twenty or so that I like. I overthink them, so many aren’t finished. #oilpainting, #art,

This is a pencil drawing from years back. The beetles in front were from a pitfall trap, and others were from St. John's wort. #SciArt, #art, #Coleoptera

I have a trip to Tasmania planned in December. I'm very nervous and excited. I plan to wander around and look at flowers like this creature in my painting. If only, I could look at two things at once. I welcome any suggestions on where I can do this. #SciArt, #oilpainting, #botany, #Tasmania

This is a baseball painting I finished in 2020. It's the biggest canvas I've done and evolved out of years of doodles that started in other ideas. Everything is watching, lots of things change, but not enough to not recognize the game. Untitled. #oilpainting #baseball #art #painting.
