The mantis is called the 'rice-pounding grasshopper' in Thailand (เธ•เธฑเนŠเธเนเธ•เธ™เธ•เธณเธ‚เน‰เธฒเธง), from the motion of its raptorial forelegs resembling the traditional manner of pounding rice to remove the husks. This one was drawn with this very brush.

Three years ago, my dad said that all fish are the same shape. Out of spite, I decided to draw all 478 families of bony fish listed in Nelson 2016. There's still some stuff I need to edit and some fish I want to redraw but, after 985 days, I finished my big dumb fish project last night.

It sounds like a joke, but this here is genuinely a wind-powered rocket ship.

I have been working on visualizing the appearance of proposed space mirrors on the night skies. As the beam approaches it appears as a column of light emerging from the darkness. At the beam center of a 600 km high 54 m. mirror the reflection gives a light similar to that of 38 Full Moons, 9.5 Lux.

Take a moment to think about what this image shows. That's a glint of sunlight, reflecting off a lake of liquid ethane and methane, on a moon that's larger than Mercury where the average surface temperature is โ€“180ยฐC, orbiting a giant ringed planet 1.4 billion kilometres away.

Enjoyed seeing this woman's work. Sustainability isn't just about producer decisions, but also consumer decisions, namely their willingness to repair things when needed. This type of repair is easier on natural fibers, rather than stretch fabrics. Consider that when shoppping. IG loosethreadsrepair

New, from me: One way that American elections have gotten better - maybe the only way - is the opportunity to claim some awesome "I voted" stickers. Here are my favorites from this voting season. (And please share yours). ๐Ÿงต donmoynihan.substack.com/p/the-best-i...

95 hours of my Dartmoor inspired moorland scene are done! This is the last full update you'll see of this aerial embroidery until its complete now, maybe 20 more hours? I've decided the tor-based area of the landscape will be sloped so I need to work on the little hill :) 1/2

#Mechatober2026 This and rain are bugging me but (unlike rain) I've actually finished this one (and immediately want a redo). And yes; I did just clone the illustration and flip it to fill in the background because I am not a scenery guy.

Brother Hob shows up at the abbey exactly once a year as part of his annual Pilgrimage, which largely consists of getting way too drunk, hassling Br. Mort for pipeweed, and skedaddling right before Sister Dot decides to kick his ass

#mechatober I have been perfecting my wildlife studies using reference material. For greater accuracy, of course. For this rhino illustration, I used some Liquorice Allsorts and half a photo of a Honda NM4.
