I just did my annual thing of wanting to find something on Twi/X, scrolling for ages and ending up feeling sad for how things once were (not in a good way). The thing I was looking turned out to be not that exciting after all.

Can't believe I never posted this one before 😱 it's a full moon tonight, harvest moon, apparently 🤔 so I'm posting a sh*tload of moon art today 😁🌛 #moon #harvestMoon #FullMoon #moonArt #sketch #artSky #art

Calendar turned sketchbook.

Inkpen sketch of a portrait of a female figure with a giant moon for a head.

Her face, on the other hand, is the appropriate size for the rest of her body, thus looking very small on the big moon surface. She is looking at a melting ice-cream scoop, with a pattern resembling planet earth, in a cone that she is holding in her hand.

She is wearing some kind of futuristic looking space suit.

In the background a dark starry sky.

A digital illustration by Loadofolbobbins of a hermit crab standing on a sandy beach under vibrant blue sky. Wrapped round their shell is a string of glowing fairy lights that they hold in their right claw. On top of their shell is a glittery gold star, like a Christmas tree.

I've been staring at ribbon structures for years and only just started drawing them. This is the beginning of a drawing of haemoglobin, the oxygen-carrying molecule in your blood. I wish I hadn't started on lined paper but already I think it's beautiful. #heart #bioart #sciart

My favourite biro ran out during this drawing so I had to raid my son's pencil case, which turns out is full of pens he's found on the floor, and broken ones at that. Funny that teenage boys experience a higher than average incidence of exploding pens. #heart #sciart #bioart
