Happy birthday to chemist William Henry Perkin (1838-1907)! This lino block print ‘William Henry Perkin Discovers Mauve’ is about how the British chemist & entrepreneur made the serendipitous discovery of the 1st synthetic organic dye: mauveine. ⁠
⁠
Perkins entered the Royal College of Chemistry in London in 1853 when he was only 15, studying with August Wilhelm von Hofmann. 🧵1/

Linocut print of Perkins in grey, a suited, bearded Victorian, at a wooden lab bench covered in glassware and chemical apparatus. He holds a flask at eye level with bright mauve fluid. Wide bright mauve lines radiate outward from it in the background.

#WIPWednesday • A moderate liver infection started over the weekend so I’ve done a lot of stitching this week. I finished the second pass of white and am now doing some of the smaller various coloured areas of the Milky Way. #SciArt #embroidery

Lia’s fingers show a wooden embroidery hoop with black linen with a rectangle of dissolvable material on which is printed the Milky Way in black and white with some red and blue markings. Some tiny single strand seed stitch and French knots in white, peach, oranges, aubergine, and dark browns and grays have been stitched. The tiny needle holds dusky rose thread. Below the Milky Way is black on black whipped backstitch that looks a bit like flames, it’s pubic hair. An hourglass-shaped needle minder that reads “this is taking forever” is attached to the cloth.

If you've been following along with #MarshMadness for a while you might be asking yourself, "gee, why hasn't Ater painted any dragonflies yet?"
And the answer is quite simple: because I'm terrible at them! Dragonflies are seriously complicated and I've got nothing but respect to anyone who can parse them.

Anyway here's my latest effort: Orthetrum sabina, a green marsh hawk. Dragonflies are astounding predators, both as underwater nymphs and as aerial adults. They have a tactic called "motion camouflage" wherein they make themselves appear stationary to their target prey by adjusting the angle of their flight path, so they remain in the same position relative to their background.

the manila bookmark with clinical record vibes has a human figure in the center, which is marked with vibrant inks. this human's head/neck/shoulders have 31 dark spots marked, with lines drawn back from them in arcs. all around their head are many curving wisps of foggy obfuscating mist. they wear a binder and long boxer briefs made of hatches, which has an abstract shape at the crotch bulbous at two ends and thinner in the center. Many of their joints are dyed with darker inks, and their spine, especially the lower spine is highlighted with dots and arrows. the color scheme is mostly teal and green on the body, with magenta jagged background and pale blue/lavender fog.

Today for #MarshMadness I've painted a big eyed toad bug, Gelastocoris oculatus. Like their namesakes, these guys are proficient jumpers, leaping distances several times their body length.

Timelapse of my painting, "Capybara and the Village," painted in Procreate!

Super fun painting this from imagination and picturing a benevolent gigantic capybara watching over a village.
