Last year I licensed some art for the cover of John Vercher's new novel Devil is Fine. Well it finally made it's way to the top of my reading pile and—so good! Beautiful novel. Highly suggest. Proud to have my jellies swimming across the cover. #bookcover #illustration #books

The #platypus gods have been most kind - this little lady showed up within a minute of me arriving at her creek outside #Hobart today. Literally the greatest species that has ever evolved. #MammalWatching #WildOz #platypuses #Tasmania

AI is ruining my work. Clients now come and say "make this picture, but a different style that destroys the all details of the original medium, but also the same..." and I try repeatedly to explain why that isn't possible instead of making good art. It closes all creative doors.

Holy crow.
Crows are excellent problem solvers, and scientists claim their intelligence is like that of a seven-year-old humans

If I had a nickel for every time someone sent me this picture and asked "is this you?" I'd have a quarter, which isn't much but could still come in handy to pay for parking my non-squidmobile 😂 Anyway I always point them at the real owner @SarahMackAttack who is a star 🦑🤩

Here´s a photo I took of the elusive #Tatzelwurm, one of the most mysterious denizens of the European Alps. I created this model nearly two decades ago for a photo contest (which I won btw).
