For the #Spacetober_challenge day 23 prompt space station I made a tiny linocut print of the track of the ISS across the night sky.

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).

Enjoy a wee rat mini linocut for World Rat Day (invented by pet rat enthusiasts to challenge any rat stigma). They do actually make great pets.

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.

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.

June 30 is Asteroid Day to raise awareness of opportunities and risks posed by asteroids, their role in the formation of our solar system, their impact in space resources and importance of protecting Earth from impact. June 30, 1908 an approximately 12-megaton explosion that occurred near the Podkamennaya Tunguska River in Yeniseysk Governorate (now Krasnoyarsk Krai), Russia, likely due to a meteor 🧵1/2

For #InsertAnInvert2024 worm prompt “not long, limbless” an animal that is fuchsia, indigo and yellow (that I used for the #printerSolstice split complimentary colour scheme prompt). 🧵1/2

For the #printerSolstice prompt split complimentary I was reminded of an animal that is fuchsia, indigo & yellow. So I made some wee little prints of a strange & beautiful creature, the fuchsia flatworm (Pseudoceros ferrugineus) from the tropical Indo-Pacific. Their gorgeous colours are aposematic - a warning to predators that they are not worth eating. So they can crawl around & feed on coral reefs without concern.

For the #Spacetober prompt JWST I chose how last year the space telescope gave us the clearest view of Neptune’s faint dust rings in decades, imaged for the first time in the infrared. To make my mini linocut I looked at satellite images in the visible wavelengths, so it appears its lovely blue colour and the JWST IR images to get the position of (some of) its rings. The printed area is only 3” x 6”.

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.

Another of my mini memento mori's - the winged hourglass representing the swift passing of ones time and the ouroboros suggesting eternal life in the beyond (if there is such a thing).

Might do some more small prints sometimes soon, I always thought they would look good filling any little gaps on #gallerywalls or when you don't have a lot of space. This little #mementomori is a limited edition and has a couple of other companions.
