I found a mini brachiosaurus 🦕 #inverts
Macro shot of a tiny green caterpillar focusing on the hind legs, which are very chunky and short like brachiosaurus legs, standing on a rock. Out of focus are its raised midsection and head, which resemble the long neck of a brachiosaurus. Macro shot of the tiny green caterpillar focusing on the hind legs which are very chunky and short like brontosaurus legs. Slightly in focus is its midsection leaning down the rock, its head out of frame. Perhaps it’s drinking some water from a miniature lake.

Lovely lilac grey ♡

Screenshot I took of Scully from The X-files capturing the moment when screen light is reflected in her glasses covering up her eyes. She looks very cool.

Forgot it was Threshold Day, but I’ll never forget that episode 🦎

🌸 mycena rosea 🌸
Closeup shot of a rosy bonnet mushroom with a curled-up cap, highlighting its soft pink, glowing gills, and a tall, tapered white stem, growing through a carpet of leaf litter on a forest floor.

Really enjoying The Blank Menu for You, a Korean talk show where guests place open-ended orders that chef Choi Kang Rok interprets into custom dishes. It’s very calming and slow, with cute awkward jokes and endearing stories revolving around memories of food.

I’ve been listening to a LotR audiobook and I keep dozing off during The Council of Elrond. It’s been weeks now but I love it.

Frozen in time ❄️
Closeup shot of a budding branch covered in icy snow. Out of focus in the background a canal with late afternoon sun reflected in the water.

Love that moment our cat pauses during a cleaning session and stares at you intently. It feels like a moment of connection, but you soon realize she’s just collecting more saliva.

My best work of 2026
A tiny snow buddy with sticks for arms pointing up, a short twig nose and broken pumpkin seeds as eyes. It’s looking sad, funny and excited at the same time.

Macro shot of a few minuscule bonnet mushrooms with glowing white, hood-shaped caps and sparkly, translucent, curved stems growing up a dark furrow in a tree covered in moss.

Cozy times 🍂🌲
Two small bonnet mushrooms with cone-shaped caps and brown stems stick out among thick fallen pine needle branches on a woodland floor. Their faintly striped caps fade from light brown to a whitish serrated edge. The warm brown colors and pine needles make the scene feel very cozy.

⋆˖⟡ fungi spirits ⟡˖⋆
Macro shot of various tiny white mushrooms with sparkly convex caps and glistening hollow curved stems emerging from a dark fissure in the bark of a tree covered in moss. I drew eyes on their caps so they look like cute little fungi spirits.

Tall beauty & a tiny friend 🍂
A single tiny mycena mushroom with a cream-colored, umbonate cap and a long, hollow beige stem grows among autumn leaves on a forest floor. There’s a minuscule fungus gnat with long antennae perched upside down on the edge of the cap.

I pressed some ginkgo leaves I found during a walk a few weeks ago. They’re so pretty! 🍂
Three pressed ginkgo leaves of various sizes are laid out on a sketchbook. They are fan-shaped with veins radiating out into the leaf blade and have that beautiful autumn deep saffron yellow color.

I love that I have so many of my own nature photo as refs and inspiration for art that I’m making. This way I can avoid all the fake ugly slop that’s invading the net. Good life hack 🌿
Collection of nine closeup photos I took of nature scenes. Most feature the pixie cup lichen with tall light green stalks gradually flaring into goblet-shaped cups growing from a leafy patch on rotting wood. There’s one macro shot of a yellow-green inchworm looking like a mini brachiosaurus.

Since I enjoy making physical art lately, I decided to draw pixel characters on 5mm square graph paper. It’s very fun and puzzly, and it made me think of how the Super Mario Bros. sprites were first sketched :)

Cozy day 🫖🧶
Screenshot of the attic in my Animal Crossing house. It’s a very cozy dimly lit room with antique furniture, a furnace and tall windows. My player character, wearing a cream acorn knit cap, round glasses and cute brown dress, is dozing off on an old leather couch. In front is a low wooden table with a knitted tea cosy and pencil holder shaped like a house.

A cozy bunch 🌿
Close side view of a dense cluster of sulphur tuft mushrooms trailing up the bottom of an old fallen tree covered in thick patches of wet moss. They have conical caps with orange centers fading to a pale orange margin and curved, light yellow stems.

Turning off smart features in gmail settings because of gemini scraping crap which then disables sorting so that promotions etc go into your primary inbox is a new kind of diabolical.

Mushroom mural 🪵
A cluster of mycena mushrooms grows out of a gnarly rotting log. They have conical to flat rosy beige caps, yellowish to brown stems and a speckled, fuzzy white base. A tiny one has fallen over showing off its prominent gills.

Petite mush 🌱🍂
Macro shot of a single minuscule bonnet mushroom growing among faded leaf duff on a forest floor. It has a glowing white, umbrella-shaped cap and a tall, wavy, hollow stem fading from sparkly white to golden brown.
