Reopening commissions! The price of character illustrations like these will depend on the complexity of the character, but will usually be about 200-300 for colored drawings and about 100 for the black and white pen drawings.

Another ancient Greek vase from an alternative history in which humans were more gentle to the world around them.
A group of Candiacervus, endemic Cretan deer, taking part in a spring festival. I imagine them as tame but not domesticated, like the famous deer in Nara, Japan.

My latest weird duck watercolour was calling for completion so I listened.
These #commongoldeneye ducks are a commission. And a little different for me as I generally just draw a single bird.

Get those wing exercises in, kids. You're gonna need them!
These big fluffy wandering wandering albatross made it through their first winter in ground nests on South Georgia.
Now they're preparing to begin their adult lives, mostly in the sky. Albatross can fly 10,000km in one trip!

"The analysis suggests dengue cases will continue to skyrocket as Earth's climate continues to warm. By the middle of the century, the number of cases could rise by 60% as more parts of the world enter the mosquito-friendly temperature zone."
Climate change plays a role in global rise of dengue fever
Over 12 million cases of dengue fever were reported in 2024, the most ever. A study suggests climate change has likely played a significant role in the disease's expansion.

When trying to decide if a plastic cleanup technology is a good idea, ask yourself:
Would this work on land? Would dragging a net through a forest be a good idea?
If the answer is “no”, then it’s not a good idea in the ocean, either.

"CLEANING" THE OCEAN USING NETS IS A DANGEROUS IDEA.
The Ocean Cleanup is using boats & a net to collect ocean plastic (left). I've circles all the animals trapped in their early prototypes (right).
There are better ways to solve the ocean plastic problem... 🧵
