My knee brace has absolutely saved my work conditioning program from having to be reworked to salvage my knee (I looked like a baby deer on the elliptical and felt like my leg was gonna just spontaneously disassemble itself). It’s better quality than any other brace I’ve had AND it’s cute.

The manatee notepad will also be part of the main goal for the backerkit! You can sign up here to get notifications about the backerkit: www.backerkit.com/call_to_acti...
illustrated advertisement (i suppose?) of an upcoming backerkit on may 29th, 2026 for illustrated nature themed memo pads. this advertisement has a large manatee as the main design, with two stretch goals showing cats in a park with a pond on swan pedal boats, and little seals and otters with fish and urchin in the sea.

the image says the memo pads are 4x5.5" with 50 sheets and designed by laura illustrates, which is me! wow.

please understand. artists don't get nearly as much feedback (praise, comments or otherwise) as you think they do. much less than years and years ago. we don't know how much you like it. we don't know how it affected you. unless you say something, or recommend it, comment, reblog. anything.

Seeing a recruiter just come out and say “if there’s a posting up they already have someone in mind” is truthful but also extremely demoralizing because that IS the system. And nobody does anything about it. They just point out the fact and move on.

Finished a new Nature journal spread of Texas native wildflowers that I've seen in 4 different prairies/parks in April. Enjoy! #sciart #naturejournal #prairie
Watercolor and ink sketches of flowers with handwritten ink descriptions on the pages. Left page has the light blue, fringed bluestar overlapping the yellow two-leaved senna. Prairie pleatleaf, a blue star-like flower is in front of 3 lavender/blue wild hyacinths with leaves that aren't colored in. The handwriting says- March 29, 2026, Prairie at Lake Benbrook, Ft. Worth, TX, 82 degrees, sunny and breezy.  Lots of butterflies and a white-lined sphinx! April 1, 2026, Tandy Hills, 85 degrees, sunny and breezy, Don and Debora Young led us on a tour to see the hyacinths!
The right page has a beautiful, pale penstemon cobaea anchoring the left side with a short, dark pink flowering, white lace cactus of Texas next to it.  Behind that is a small 4-nerved daisy and a larger Antelopehorn milkweed with leaves that are just inked. Handwritten notes say- April 7, 2026, Flower Mound, 73 degrees, partly sunny, breezy, prairie parsely also blooming.  April 11, 2026, 76 degrees, 76 degrees, cloudy, Palo Pinto Mtns State Park, Cloudburst while sketching!  Lol. Lots of cool cacti in the meadow.  Lots of Antelopehorn milkweed blooming!

Surprised Eel Historian, PhD @greenleejw.bsky.social · 23/04/2026
You've probably been wondering: "How many eels is a cottage worth in 14th C. England?" This is a reasonable question. I get it. And happily, I'm here to help! I included a chart showing this kind of equivalence in an article I wrote for HistoryExtra , but here's an excerpt! 🗃️🧪
Table showing cost of items in the 14th C., and the equivalent value in eels. The table has 3 columns: "You want to buy", "It Costs", and "But in eels?" The table shows you that:

2 doz. eggs costs 1d, or 6 eels
A gallon of the best ale costs 1.25d or 8 eels
1 sheep costs 1s 5d, or 106 eels
1 cow costs 9s 5d, or 706 eels
A 2-story cottage costs £2, or 3,000 eels

The d. here means penny, from the latin "denarius." There were 12 d. to a shilling (s), and 20 shillings to a pound (£).

As far as I know, no one was buying cottages with eels. This is more to give you a sense of relative costs. But wouldn't it be interesting if you could buy a house with eels?

This chart leaves unanswered the question: "What about the next-best ale?" and suggests and entire spectrum of ale gradations. Which makes good sense, of course. But also, you certainly wouldn't want to spend your eels on inferior ale!

I find clip studio paint to be more sensitive to pen pressure than photoshop. I already adjusted my settings and it still drops registration sometimes. Granted I'm on like version 1, but she hasn't failed me yet. Surely I don't need to replace my nib yet? (I'm pushing it, I know LOL)

Iconography
Digital art resembling a religious icon. A fat copper dragonborn in white priest robes is painted against a metallic gold background, with an embossed gold halo behind his head. He has crocodile-like scales and glasses and is exhaling a puff of smoke as he holds his rosary beads in his hands. In the background is a red border and the letters AMTR.

Another old piece of art I've been revisiting is the reference sheet to the three main sharkfolk characters from the Waters Gone By story, which I'm experimenting with doing. I've changed a few lil details over time. I really like these shorks! 🦈✨ #shark #sharkfolk
Reference sheet illustration of my three sharkfolk characters: Aria Almarina, Tiago Tigrado, and Roberto Martiello.

Aria is a short zebra shark with yellow skin covered in purple spots. She wears blue dungarees over a white shirt with pink stripes and yellow sandals. She wears a bracelet with a star pendant on her arm.

Tiago is a medium-sized tiger shark with blue skin and blue and pink stripes. He wears a cap, a white shirt printed with an allegorical symbol of the sign of Cancer, black trousers and a red jacket with a yellow checkered pattern tied at the waist. He wears white trainers and a colourful costume jewellery necklace.

Roberto is a large hammerhead shark of tall stature, with pink skin tattooed with representations of stars, tides and a misty moon. He has a blue piercing below his eyes and wears a black shirt with a trilunar symbol. He wears white jeans torn at the knees, held up by a blue belt with a yellow buckle.

Drawing leaf bugs is lowkey addicting lol. I may have to do some more!
Digital illustration of 3 leaf bugs over a light green background with a thin white border and a light leaf pattern underneath. Top left leaf bug is green with pink accents and a small heart hidden into its upper thorax. Top right is a smaller leaf bug with a more aphid-like tear drop shape. Tiny hear worked into it's forehead. The last leaf bug at the bottom is a large brown one with serrated leaf edges and a heart also worked into its forhead. The top left and bottom leaf bugs are viewed as if from a higher angle.  There is also an @discobeetle artist credit baked into the bottom left corner of the image.

Next to it are smaller thumbnails of a nesting dove, and a flying dove, and a little square sketch of possible arrangements of a dove print on a bandana. sketchbook page of pencil sketches showing two small squares and one large rectangle underneath. The small square on the top left contains a sketch of a scarab beetle, surrounded by a border with dots and flowers in the corners, the one on the right is a flower motif with a more nouveau style decorative border. The rectangle underneath is a pencil sketch of a dove with its wings open and an olive branch in it's mouth. Bordered by a dark frame embellished with dots and breaks in teh corners filled with flowers (similar to the beetle's border).

Bees 🐝
This art features 100 bees of various colors and shapes.
These bees are designed in a cartoonish style, based on real species. The common name or species is written below the animals.
Some bees are moving leaves, scraping plant hair, or sticking out their tongues. Some male bees have hairy faces and unusually shaped legs. There are also baby bees that have just hatched from their petal nests.  Cute and colorful atmosphere. There are over 20,000 species of bees, so I only depicted a very small fraction of them!
