Landscape & nature studies

The bottom piece is my study of a painting by Adam Noonan & the rest are pulled out of my head. Those include some fossil and geode creatures & a man on a horse approaching some mountain sprites.

Studies of photos from Lichen Portal. Blessed to live in a timeline where there’s a whole website where I can look at lichen around the world while sitting at home.

Cover of Humming-Birds by Mary & Elizabeth Kirby, 1874. These English sisters were prolific publishers of books dedicated to popularizing science & nature study in the Victorian era. See the whole book w/ 5 additional color plates via BHL: https://www.biodiversitylibrary.org/item/51130

I believe the two hummingbirds are a sylph (appears to be Violet-tailed Sylph, Aglaiocercus coelestis) on left and a coquette (appears to be Spangled Coquette, Lophornis stictolophus) on right, but ID corrections are welcome!
