For my recent work, Avatar Amber Inclusion, I created insect wings for my Second Life avatar, MultiverseTraverser1. They are based off a scientific illustration of prehistoric dustywing insects, which are often found in pieces of amber. 🧚♀️

Deep Time & Cosmic Time 🪨 🌌 Using the terrain of virtual land in Second Life, I juxtaposed the 2006 Hubble Ultra Deep Field with a default rocky terrain texture. I love how it turned out and I look forward to expanding on these sketches.

Revised & updated prehistoric Coniopterygidae (dustywing) wings. For this piece I’m stepping out of cosmology/astrophysics & into paleoentomology—a branch of entomology dealing with fossilized insects. Saving the rest for later, I’ll finish by saying my interest in 'time immemorial' led me here.

The WIP is finally WIP-ing. I successfully made my avatar some prehistoric dustywing wings for an artwork I am working on.

I recently finished a needle lace sample of an image from 'A Treatise on Electricity and Magnetism' by James Clerk Maxwell. I wasn’t sure how it would turn out—the design is complex & I am a lace novice. It’s not perfect, but I really love it. #astrofibres #lacemaking #needlelace #textileart #sciart

my source of happiness is noticing the small things in life, like the way glass distorts its surroundings via refraction. 😌
