found this abandoned quilt top while cleaning and had to finish it up finally. screen printed and sewn last semester and finally quilted and bound yesterday. using holographic foils to emulate the glassy appearance of diatoms under the microscope, i sewed a log cabin pattern as a playful nod to the idea that diatoms live in tiny glass houses.

Funeral for a friend: decay, extinction, and saying goodbye

This paper-mache 1:1 scale allosaurus bust holds a special place in my heart, he’s one of the first sculptures I ever made. Apologies for the level of scientific accuracy here—it was 2013, I was young and naive.

The planets have aligned in an unfortunate way, and it’s time for me to send him off to the great beyond. I’ve fretted for a long time about how to do this.

I decided to let him slip away in a slow decay, rather than a blaze of glory. I’ll be documenting my buddy here slowly melt back into the earth. He’s made of paper, cardboard, and flour paste; I’ll gather up his polymer clay teeth as they shake loose during his final rest in my parents’ backyard. Big thank you to my folks for allowing me to do this weird thing.

For as long as it takes I’ll document the process of my allosaurus friend disappearing. I’ve been thinking a lot about loss and goodbyes in the past few years. Decay too. The permanence of it all makes my stomach twist, even for a silly dinosaur sculpture. Once it’s gone it can’t come back

I tried something new!

Usually when I edit photos I'm aiming to make things as life-like as possible but I've recently decided to challenge myself to play with color and different tools in PhotoPea. I'm really excited with how this one came out.

I used color to alpha (a lot), hue/saturation, color balance, invert colors, and posterize in a bunch of different layered iterations for different parts of the image til I ended up with the final piece, which I'm really delighted by.

The original photo is of a ruby octopus I got to see this summer while doing research.

WHY WE MASK printed zines are here! Big thanks to everyone who read/downloaded/shared the digital zine, and to every contribution to the print fund. If you're interested in distributing free copies (especially if you're part of an active mask bloc or covid safe group), send me a direct message with a mailing address! I'm currently covering postage to the "US" and "Canada" (though donations are always welcome).

WWM is suitable for tweens and up, though it might piss off some administrators and/or parents by acknowledging COVID at all, and because it's got drawings of queer and/or trans people, anti-genocide protestors, and kufiyas. If you've stopped masking, this zine can give you the info and tools you need to start again. If you already mask, you may learn something new and feel less alone!

You can also read the whole thing on my website, and download the files and print copies yourself for free! They work best printed in b&w on a photocopier (download includes detailed directions for printing/assembling). Stay safe out there and happy comics-ing!

UPDATE 10/10/24: Okay, all 500 copies of the 1st run are spoken for now! You can still request but it'll be a bit before the next run. Thanks to everyone for contacting me & for the support! The first wave of packages are on the way & I'm currently packing up the rest. This has been a wild week!

Bioluminescence : Question, Hypothesis, Experiment Oil, 30 x 20 inches, 2020

The light of life and the scientific method. These points of light and inspiration stand in contrast to the lanterns and lights that are historically thought to be sources of illumination but are now dimmed; mythologies and superstitions humans have created as we struggled in the dark of ignorance to understand our world. But the process of science has revealed a luminous planet, glowing with the magic of biological reality, more intricate and amazing than we could have ever imagined.

B. iberica is a hymenopteran from the Mutillidae family (velvet ants), which are not true ants, but more closely related with wasps. Because of this all females' got a stinger and can use it repeatedly as a defense mechanism.

This species is not very well studied. Most of their populations live in the Iberian Peninsula, but are not exclusive to it, as it can also be found in Morocco, and even Italy (Western Mediterranean Sea). However, it is known to be very termophile and solitary, and its larvae are likely parasitistic of other hymenopterans or dipterans.

Alright science art and paleo art folks go gentle on me. If I was to do these for a gallery showing I think I'd need at least a couple of weeks for research and notes alone. More if I reached out to researchers for paper access and feedback. Speculative armored invertebrates, Dickinsonia, speculative medusa, Charnia, Spriggina, Kimberella, Arkarua, & their trace fossils.
