Y'all are just going to have to put up with stained-glass moths from me for a while, I'm on a roll. 😊

Today's is rather infamous, the death's-head hawkmoth (Acherontia atropos)!

Happy Boxing Day!

Hope you had a great Christmas if you’re celebrating and are enjoying your vacation otherwise. This is a little sneak peek of a new print I made recently of an alfalfa leaf cutter in the act of cutting its telltale half-moon cut in a leaf. I made a collection of prints to illustrate a little board book written by Lisa Jaffe about our pollinator friends in the garden. #InverteFest is hosting an anthology! 🧵

Today's #Weretober is a peacock mantis shrimp - neither a shrimp, mantid, or peacock - but they can punch faster than you can blink, so it's probably better to respect their space.

Especially if they're were-crustacean sized.

For #SciArtSeptember day 2: battle, it’s my linocut of 2 dangerous invasive beauties & the battle against their spread in eastern North America, the spotted lanternfly & tree of heaven. The Tree of Heaven (Ailanthus altimissa) is a deciduous tree native to NE China & Taiwan, which was foolishly brought to Europe & NA in the 1700s where it as become known as a noxious weed & invasive plant. 🧵1/n

Day 5: This little #jumpingspider enjoyed basking on a leaf, in the early sun rays, for several days. She seemed curiously chill and not afraid of me and my bulky lens; the fact this was a Diviner's Sage plant (#salviadivinorum) was probably a coincidence.
