We Love A Break To Do A Simple Line Art Drawing. This A Tamaraw, A Small Buffalo And The Only Native

A water color of small forest buffalo ( tamaraw) in black and red brown lines. The tamaraw is standing sideways and looking at the camera with a soft black eye. White hairs cross over it.  The horns and ear are red brown while the nose and body are drawn in black lines

We love a break to do a simple line art drawing. This a tamaraw, a small buffalo and the only native bovid in the Philippines.

Behold the wolf worm! A hungry little mammal inching its way along to new snacks! Comes in more than just rainbow.

Lil Style Experiment. Featuring Wolf Furry (yes I Am Indeed Original) 

Lil style experiment. Featuring wolf furry (yes I am indeed original) 

Image Id: Gray anthropomorphic wolf with a gleaming orange eye and white sharp teeth. He’s wearing a red and black checkered flannel with white buttons on the collar. Underneath is a white tee shirt. His blue jeans have rips on the outside of the thigh. He has black sneakers with white soles, laces, and white toes and orange stitching. He’s holding a disposable cup of coffee in his left hand, and his right is in his pocket. The background is an orange gradient with angular shapes outlined in light blue pointing towards them. The shapes are filled with white with a blue gradient.

A blobfish sits on the sandy, purple sea bed, illuminated by the light beam of a submarine. Its thin tail is green-blue and another fin of the same color waves down from the base of the tail to the mid-back. The body is a soft gray and triangular. Two  fan-like fins frame the face on either side. It is bulbous and like the rest of the body studded with small white bumps. Its eye is small, black, and gleaming with quiet knowing.

A deep sea friend: the blob sculpin. These are also known as "blobfish," which won the price for world's ugliest animal a few years back. Why doesn't it look like the blobfish you've seen on the internet? With bulbous noses and frowning lips and pink flesh? Those blobfish were dead and photographed after removing them from their seabed homes (1,600 to 9,200 ft deep) in the pacific. Reeling them up causes their bodies to rapidly expand because of the pressure change, which causes them to become pink and bloated. This blob sculpin rests peacefully on the ocean floor, staring up at the light of a submarine that illuminates it. Soon, it will swim off into the dark, hunting small crustaceans.

Tasty Tart, Inspired By A Strawberry Rhubarb Tart I Had From The Local Vegan Restaurant And Still Dream

Tasty tart, inspired by a strawberry rhubarb tart I had from the local vegan restaurant and still dream about to this day. Fell off the face of the earth for a bit (moved across the country and started a new job) but now that I’m settled posts should be more regular.

A cream sea slug with brown spots wears a tan cowboy hat with a red sash around the base. It has gold studs. He chews a strand on gold wheat. The background is a green circle.

"Howdy, partner. Don't suppose you seen any cows around these parts? Mine seem to have wandered off. Mind helping me find em? Your eyes be mighty useful, 'specially cause I don't have any!"

Will you help him find his cows?

Profile of a woman silhouetted against a yellow sunset sky with clouds in the red barren desert. She wears a black long sleeved shirt and a braid curls over the top of her left shoulder which is closest to the camera. An abnormally large coyote skull covers sits on her head and covers her face down to her nose, but her stern expression is still visible. Her eye peers out from the eye socket. Through holes in the top of the skull, two coyote ears emerge.

Little Western concept I'm toying with. Where'd she get that giant coyote skull you ask? Stay tuned!

A silver humanoid robot kicks with its left leg. Its right hand is raised high over its head and the left is down by its side. Blue sparks come of its left foot and fist. There are two metal antennae on its head. Its blue eyes and face are stern. A metal scorpion tail swings to the right side. There's a wide blue v emblem on its chest.

A little watercolor of my oc, Damselfly (pronouns it/its for now). They're a slug that builds its own armor from toxic metal gases like volcano snails. Did I think about the biology of this too much? Yes

About 70 Days Ago I Commented On @astro-axolotl 's Watercolour Snail Saying I Wish I Could Get The Watercolours

About 70 days ago I commented on @astro-axolotl 's watercolour snail saying I wish I could get the watercolours out and paint a snail myself. I haven't painted in months. I haven't posted art here in maybe a year. I haven't painted a snail ever.

Here's my snail

reblogging comic again with this addition because it is gold. On top of a landlords office no less.

The first four pages of a zine. The first page has a house sparrow flying with a stick in her claws and a worm in her mouth. The background is a blue sky. The word above her is Resilience. Below her the words are the author's name (Ari Coester) and tumblr handle (astro-axolotl). The second page has a yellow stucco store front with a red letters that say HOME. There are spikes on any flat surface. The sky is blue with a few clouds. The top line reads "the coporate bigwigs had antibird spikes put up." The bottom line reads "to stop them from perching and pooping. The third page shows a sparrow perching on an antibird spike on top of the M. The text reads "The house sparrows were not deterred." The fourth page starts with the text "they built nests." A bird perches on a nest built in the H. Below another bird builds a nest in the O. A final bird works to build a nest in the middle of the M.
A four panel comic continuation of the comic above. On the fifth page, there's now 2 white eggs with brown speckles in the H nest. In the O nest two baby birds beg for food from their father, who brings them a worm. In the M nest a father sits with two larger chicks, one of who is screaming while the other sits there. The text says they raised families. The sixth page is a close up of the M nest. The mother is coming to land. The father sits on the back edge, and the 2 babies sit up front. On the M is the text "kept safe by what was meant to keep them out." The seventh is a repeat of the first page, covered in poop with many silhouettes of house sparrows flying in the sky above. The text says "And they are pooping more than ever. The final page is a brown sparrow feather on a blue background.
