8x12in pileated woodpecker lino print I’ve been working on. Fun fact: all the bugs pictured are based on real species that can be found in Ontario.

For Day 25 #spacetober_challenge: historic missions-my portrait of mathematician and NASA scientist Katherine Johnson (née Coleman; August 26, 1918 – February 24, 2020). 🧪🐡👩🏾‍🔬🧮 #histsci One of the first Black women employed as a NASA scientist (and its predecessor NACA), she was known for her mastery🧵
My linocut portrait of Katherine Johnson in a upward gradient of raspberry to purple ink (she is a Black woman in a shirt dress, with pearls, glasses and a watch, holding a pencil, facing left with her arms out on an unseen table like she was writing, looking at the viewer over her right shoulder). Behind her on the right is the Project Mercury rocket with capsule and launch trajectory in black. Beside her on right is the Earth in blue with two images of the Moon in silver above to show the trajectory for the Apollo Lunar Module.

-This is not the sky-

😢It is really sad to see adorable birds dying because of the reflection on windows, so I made this illustration for some bird protection organizations to propagandize this situation.

I finished this little black-capped chickadee lino print today, and I can’t wait to frame it.

I tried to capture some photos of the process of making a pendant but in hindsight I feel like a dude showing off a cool fish 🎣

These pendants have cubic zirconia trapped in borosilicate glass bottles.

New Pangur Bán panel available now! It’s difficult to photograph both the light white cat and the deep dark books, so here are a few detail shots

www.aknitomy.com/shop/p/pangu...
a gothic arch top stained glass panel with a white cat sitting atop a stack of books. there are two candles glowing gold behind him against a slate grey background, and the whole thing is framed in mottled streaky grey glass to resemble the stone masonry of a medieval monastery the books the cat is sitting on are deep brown leather, vibrant dyed red leather, and a vibrant dyed green leather (all in different textures of glass) a detail of the cat’s face, he’s looking calmly off to the side and is sitting in profile

Hello (again) Bluesky! I’m going to start posting here again, because that other app has become a disaster.

But first, I want to introduce myself. My name is Tina Smith, and I’m a proud United States Senator for Minnesota… ⬇️

I hate AI for a lot of reasons but we simply cannot be burning the earth’s limited resources to make evil robots that kill people.

Holy fucking shit
Five days before his death, Adam confided to ChatGPT that he didn't want his parents to think he committed suicide because they did something wrong. ChatGPT told him "[t]hat doesn't mean you owe them survival. You don't owe anyone that." It then offered to write the first draft of Adam's suicide note.

Red-winged blackbird study in dermatograph pencil and alcohol marker. I love these little terrorists and the way they dive-bomb my bike if the path is too close to their nests. So small but so fierce.
