#SciArtSeptember Day 29 Pelt is the American Mink. Once again the mammals kick my butt, but look at that long noodle girl!

On the left, a colored pencil drawing head on of an american mink. It’s a dark brown ferret shaped guy with white splotches on the chest. Mine looks like a cat but it’s fine. On the right is an ink drawing of a side view of the same mink. She is a long long gal. Very noodle shaped.

Day 30! - #carbon Double duty! It’s also #BirdWhisperer Project posting day. Black Woodpecker (Dryocopus martius). Found in mature forests across Europe and parts of Asia. The deep black was a challenge, but it fit the carbon theme nicely. #SciArtSeptember #birdart #watercolor

An Abyssinian roller that is also a little book. It begins: “Why is a roller like a writing desk? The need for fire and acacia, both. One for blood - the other, ink.” Written in India ink. - #SciArtSeptember Day 30: Carbon

A painted, cut-out paper bird in the shape of an Abyssinian roller. The bird has one wing folded back, which reveals a small booklet of pages under the wing. The underwing is brown and has uneven letters painted on it in another shade of brown reading, “Some small words about the medium of carbon.” The booklet pages are bright blue, like the bird, and the words inside are unclear. The bird rests on a wooden table top.

Day 28 of #SciArtSeptember prompt is linen. It’s not a material I typically work with (even when printing on textiles) but you can find my #sciart printed on linen in my minouette Spoonflower shop including tea towels (cotton/linen blend) with my ‘Mmm… coffee’ linocut featuring a caffeine molecule!

My ‘Mmm … coffee’ linocut printed on a tea towel shot on a white background. The illustration shows a mug viewed from above and off to the side with shadow and swirling aroma lines in which appears a caffeine molecule. At the top (at the edge of the swirling aroma lines) is written “Mmm” and at the bottom “COFFEE”. The print was made in dark brown on beige.

For the last #SciArtSeptember #SundayFishSketch, Day 27 Quill I did a lionfish which was an ambitious choice when I’m getting over a bug I picked up at the conference 😅

Colored pencil drawing of a lionfish. It seems proportionally to be more fin than fish and has a huge spiny 1st dorsal fin banded with brown-red. The other find are more spotted/lightly banded with brown. The body is a series of brown/red-brown/yellowish stripes. There is a little horn looking thing with a flag bit on the eye.

A blue wing olive mayfly and matching fly fishing lure for #SciArtSeptember / #SundayFishSketch 27 “quill.” Fly fishing lures aim to imitate small invertebrate prey of fish by combining natural and artificial materials, with quills making great segmented bodies for aquatic insect models.
