Hey guys! I'm Danji and I have been drawing and painting wildlife art my whole life. I have a soft spot for the "ugly" and "scary"

I wish that people didn't need literal art all the time. Media literacy NEEDS to be challenging or it is going to continue to need to be spoonfed. They will only take my weird animal paintings, taxidermy, and abstract writings from me only when I'm dead

Now that life is moving along again... I'm eager to submit to more art projects. Bluesky sciart gods. Will you help me figure out the best places to do that? I honestly have no idea out of seeing posts that pop up randomly xD

#Mayllennial
A Windows XP desktop with Microsoft Paint opened. A crudely made 90s style graphic is on the canvas. It has very saturated colors. The title is #Mayllennial and there is information saying: "A MILLENNIAL-THEMED DAILY ART CHALLENGE IN MAY (OR WEEKLY. WHATEVER. WE'RE TIRED.) HOSTED BY @DAVIS.SOCIAL PROMPTS COMING NEXT WEEK" There is a warning from the task bar that antivirus software might be out of date.

Sat down with the babies so they could get some energy out. i was trying really hard to get reference photos of them but they had such crazy zoomies.

There's something so crazy and humbling about a critter so small wanting to be near you.

This is one of my favorite pieces I've done in a long time. I might make it into a traditional piece <3

Super small because theft

🪶 Did you ask for a bird fact for Valentine's Day? No, but you're getting one whether you like it or not. #ValentinesDay
Photo by Wade Tregaskis of a pair of Cedar Waxwings passing a bit of plant stem back and forth. Text on photo says: "Unsolicited Bird Fact: During courtship male & female Cedar Waxwings pass gifts back and forth to each other. Often the gift is food, but sometimes it's a Token Of Undying Devotion™ like this limited edition plant stem (available exclusively from "Bales".)

Sorry about my lack of alt text until now! I was using postybirb and they took away that option for some reason in the new update and I was being lazy.

Pet portrait commissions! I love using acrylic on wood. It's so satisfying.

If you've ever spent any time around limpkins, you know they're fond of making noise. Here's a close portrait of one calling out, tongue dancing. #birds

These are older watercolors, but I have a cream of painting all the jumping spiders in my area and making a little location booklet with facts about them.

These are Colonus hesperus and Phiddipus regius(not from my area but a pet that I had)

There is something about someone calling something "Incredibly ugly and hoping they go extinct" when it comes to animals (even though they were joking) that makes me fall in love with the animal and want to protect it at all cost LOL

It's probably my stubbornness
