As soon as I touch your child's library book, it becomes a transgender library book. I will not apologise. I also do pictures, mostly for @lhardingwrites.bsky.social.

This Anguirus was in the same part of my sketchbook as all the nudibranchs, so you are also getting a random Anguirus as it got scanned in too. Enjoy.
A black and white pen study of Anguirus, a kaiju/manster that vaguely resembles a dinosaur with a long, slender snout, a "frill" of five spikes at the top of its head, a nose horn, and pointed, conical teeth, as well as two tusk-like canines jutting out sideways from the mouth.

Today's #nudivember is Felimida (Chromodoris) luteorosea, which by any other name is just as purple.

Day 9 of #nudivember is Tritonia myrakeenae, which is bringing back the 90s/00s "translucent tech" aesthetic.

Day 8 of #nudivember is Cerberilla ambonensis. A treat for me, another Cerberilla species with stripy cerata.

Yesterday was a late finish at work, so here's #nudivember 4 and 5 together: Glossodoris electra and Tambja affinis. I hope they have a nice time hanging out.

Today's #Nudivember is Cerberilla tanna. I try to approach each species as they come, but I am a fan of Cerberilla species. Their striped cerata are very cute.

Not as much art recently because my phone's camera is basically dead and I can only use the front camera, but I felt the #InsertAnInvert people might appreciate this one from next month's illustrations for @lhardingwrites.bsky.social.

One childhood thing that came to the new place is this cuddly oddish that my mum made for me. It now hangs out on the arm of the sofa.
A handmade oddish, made of a blue sweatshirt and a pale green towel.

I found the rookie form I drew this time last year!

My phone's camera is Unhappy and so I can only take pictures of my sketchbook at really uncomfortable angles using the front camera, but I'm pretty happy with this as a silly doodle.
A drawing of a snarling catlike creature with bird wings, a long body with a coiling tail, and clawed front hands in tattered sleeves. It is done in a heavily shaded style.

Birthday card from my partner: "This is how I imagine the rhymetimes you do at the library."
A birthday card captioned "Time travel for beginners". A retro style cartoon shows two children playing with dinosaur hatchlings while a large theropod dinosaur looms behind them, human legs protruding from its mouth

Some I rescued from my childhood bookshelves recently, two of which have had the covers loved off them.
Inside title page of The Ultimate Dinosaur Book by David Lambert, with a Styracosaurus and Dilophosaurus Front cover of Dinosaur Atlas by Tony Gibbons and Robert Snedden. A theropod dinosaurs bursts forth from a map. Back cover of You & Your Cat. No idea who write it because the front 50 pages and cover have fallen off, but it's a Dorling Kindersley from the late 80s/early 90s I nabbed off my mum.

My tattoos are either "I've been thinking through this idea for years" or "I just thought of this". This one is, somehow, both.
A photograph of a new tattoo on my chest. A pair of bird-shaped scissors has its beak/blades pointing toward my top surgery scars.

Yep, definitely getting there.

You know what? It's getting there.
A photograph of a slightly battered old desk with a portable drawing board, laptop, and small set of drawers on it. The chair nearby has a leather jacket and a black and red scarf draped over the back.

Sometimes you accidentally create an environment that encapsulates the sheer weirdness of moving again and waiting for everything to happen.
A photograph of a mostly empty room. A copy of A Nazi Word for a Nazi Thing lies on a tatty folding chair I found in an alcove under the stairs.
