Take a 10 minute break to relax and soar with Juno over the clouds of Jupiter in real time.

Sound on, full screen recommended.

Did today’s #BirbFest2025 bird take me all day, why yes, yes it did! Was it worth it…yes I’m proper pleased with it. Here be the Cassowary…

#Birds #SciArt #ArtChallenge #BirbFest #ArtSky #WildlifeArt #Cassowary
An original digital illustration of a Cassowary bird by Loadofolbobbins. The illustration focuses on its neck and head. A very dinosaur looking bird the Cassowary has a bright reddish orange wrinkled neck and wattle that transitions to a bright intense blue face with sharp angles of the skull visible underneath its skin. It has a beak slightly elongated and pointed downwards. It has a large eye with a yellowy orange iris that is glistening in the sun. On top of its head is a casque, which is an enlargement of the bone from its upper skull and looks almost like a Mohawk and is an array of greens in colour. The background is a splash of light grey ink.

Woolly Rhinoceros. It’s a rhinoceros, and it’s woolly. Simple.
Digital illustration, Procreate & Photoshop.
Digital illustration of a woolly rhinoceros in a snowstorm. The animal is mostly covered in shaggy black fur, but with a white band around its neck and shoulders. It has two horns on its snout, the front one much longer than the other.

Flytrap.
Digital illustration: a tiny dragon, with a sand-coloured body and green head resembling a desert plant, looks up with gaping, sharp-toothed jaws, as a fly buzzes overhead.

I started my career as a traditional painter, and I used to hand-paint gigantic canvas murals (like this 58’x14’ one from 2015 (c) Blue Rhino Studio). These days I’ve transitioned to doing the same kind of work, only digitally.

It's been a while since we turned our lens on you. 🔭 The moon was in a waxing gibbous phase, illuminated approximately 80%. #astrophotography #space #nature #MoonHour #SciArt
