#miniprint — Public Fediverse posts

Luckily this is a sparsely populated area of Siberian taiga, but it’s estimated that 80 million trees were flattened.

This is my wee little asteroid linocut (on paper 4” x 4” with 2” x 2” printed area).

Fun fact: Asteroid Day was co-founded by astrophysicist/rock musician Dr Brian May of Queen.

For today’s #Spacetober prompt EVA, or extra-vehicular activity I made a tiny astronaut on a spacewalk linocut. It’s printed on shiny paper with a pearlescent sheen.

For the #Spacetober prompt space station I made a tiny linocut print of the track of the ISS across the night sky.

Day 12: Reaper
Another little Memento Mori, when I do these they are only 8x8cm so very fiddly and really make me consider what I can achieve in a small space.

A tiny linocut I made a few years ago: the red-legged grasshopper.

One of the most common grasshoppers in NA, these are the most commonly seen grasshoppers in the NE US & S Canada. Reddish-brown on their backs, yellow-green below, they are named for their orangy-red legs. In high-density, these grasshoppers can be considered a garden or agricultural pest who eat grain.
