For those of you in the contiguous US, there’s a competition to win a copy of The Devil’s Halo by Rhys Hughes on a subreddit devoted to Weird Literature.

www.reddit.com/r/WeirdLit/c...

Check it out.
The cover of The Devil’s Halo by Rhys Hughes was designed by Alison Buck. It consists of tessellations of a monochrome seated demon figure with a halo. The demon in the centre of the cover has a halo which is coloured gold. The artwork is very much an homage to M.C. Escher who produced many tessellated images.

An Inkle weaving diagram and warping pattern in the color sequence listed in the text description: The warping pattern is a line of colored boxes with small dots above every other one, above which it states: "Warping Pattern: Each square represents one thread. The squares with dots go through heddles, the squares without dots do not." The weaving diagram is a series of tessellated lozenge shaped tiles illustrating how the pattern will appear when woven.

#MosaicMonday - Mosaic Mystery
How could these two Alexandrian mosaics be produced mostly in stunning opus vermiculatum at the end of 3rd cent or beginning of 2nd BC when so few tessellated mosaics have ever been discovered anywhere from the 3rd cent? How could such expertise have been developed?
Emblema from Thmuis showing Berenike II, wife of Ptolemy III. She died in 221BC. Surrounded by a shield of scales. Dated to early 2nd century BC Detail of a sumptuous mosaic portraying Berenike Ii as a personification of Alexandria within borders of guilloches, perspective meanders and crenellations. Also signed by Sophilos. Dated to end of 3rd century BC

self-made king #kirby #art
Artwork of King Dedede from the Kirby series winking to camera, holding his hammer behind his head with one hand and putting his fist on his hip with the other. The background has the same pattern as the king's obi, a yellow and red tessellated triangle pattern, and his description from Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe, reading: "Make way for the 𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 of Dream Land! I'm 𝗯𝗶𝗴 and 𝗯𝘂𝗿𝗹𝘆, just like my 𝗵𝗮𝗺𝗺𝗲𝗿. You won't get far without me... so I'm coming too!"

A firm favourite and another bird I've seen in real life - a kingfisher dashing along a freshwater canal delivering drinking water to central London.
It made me incredibly happy seeing this fantastic creature 🩵🤎
Here he is sitting majestically on a branch

#birbfest2026 #birbfest #SciArt #BirdArt
Drawing of a kingfisher from the side with dashing turquoise, teal, copper red and orange plumage, his long beak protruding widely over the broken off branch he is perching on. The bird is tessellated into triangles and coloured so that no two adjacent areas are in the same hues. Polychromos coloured pencils and black fine liner on white paper, 10x15cm.

Nuthatches - what's not to love? Amazing soft pastel colouring, an eye-stripe like a bandit, hanging upside down on trees!
I was really pleased seeing them in real life in Belgium recently

A Galah cockatoo for day 22 of #birbfest2026

Thought I might have seen a Galah cockatoo in real life, when I was in Australia in 2019 but consulting my photos it turns out it was their cousin, a Gang-Gang cockatoo (grey plumage on breast and body) 🩷🩶

The bird is tessellated into triangles and coloured so that no two adjacent areas are in the same hues. Polychromos coloured pencils and black fine liner on white paper, 15x10cm.
