Video games and sometimes traditional artist. Democratic socialist I suppose. Manmade climate crisis acceptor/worrier. Into loud music and guitars, likes books, politics and sci-fi, sometimes all mix up into one! Mostly made of meat
A nuanced and intelligent talk about the climate crisis...it'll never catch on. :-S #climatecrisis #climatebreakdown #nature

Ok, not strictly inktober but I thought this watercolour and ink pen I did of the beach at Alnmouth sort of works for today prompt weave (because of the tangled plants) The concrete things in the back at tank traps for WW2! #inktober #inktober2025 #drawing

Well done Newcastle! While the far-right only managed to muster up about 250 people for their march, the counter protest drew 10 times that easily! #fightfascism #antifascism

Gearing up to participate in this years inktober, it's been a while since I picked up a pen! Here's an older small drawing of an otter I did. Started with pencil, then ink pen, then watercolour paints. #inktober #intober2025

I haven't picked up a pencil or pen in a while, think I will do this year's inktober to get me back into it.
Here's an older ink pen drawing of mine. The magnificent Marine Iguana of the Galapagos Islands #inktober #inktober2025

30 years to the day PJ Harvey released her album To Bring You My Love. Pretty sure this single was the first song I heard from her and she's still one of my favs ever! #music #rock

Here's a whale I drew in ink pen, then coloured in Photoshop. It's quite cartoony and reminds me of my animator days :-) #nature #drawing #art #illustration

Good in-depth look at the LA fires, where he discusses causes, how it's portrayed online, particularly social media and the probable impending financial crisis due to insurers unwilling to insure certain places.

This is a little drawing I did of a barn owl, using pencil, ink pen and then watercolors. Beautiful creatures, I've been lucky enough to see them a couple of times in the wild #nature #drawing #art #fineart #illustration #bird #birding #painting #WednesdayMotivation

I'm primarily a videogames artist but I do on occasion like to pick up a pen and pencil. Here's my drawing of a fox through various stages. Can you believe people still hunt these beautiful animals #banthehunt #nature #drawing #art #fineart #illustration #tuedaythoughts

Out driving and parking in town today, I thought of a new acronym (well technically an initialism) BSC...stands for big stupid car, for a car that uses way too much fuel and takes up too much space for its/the environment #capitalism #latestagecapitalism #climatecrisis #thougtoftheday
