My portrayal of Hades, as a skull floating over a blue spiky dog collar, with purple and blue striped wavy hair that has dangly heart charms by his eyes and a pierced eyebrow.

My version of the goddess of spring and lady of the underworld, Persephone. She is a skull floating above blue ruffles, with an infinity sign on her forehead and flowers perched on the skull. She has a pierced eyebrow with a heart charm dangling on it, lots of purple tones and bubbles coming at you against some curvy lines.

I'm back online, and the very first thing I did was upload what I was working on, y'all the coloring book/web zine about carnivorous plants is now LIVE. Please read about my passion and why I'm bursting with joy.

Zine update! Along with this page, I will start a new routine of posting a page a week (starting Friday). I also updated the art on the other pages to use my hand colored scans, touched up just a tad digitally.

Nature has her moments of fury and storm. But she also has times, many times, of serenity and calm, times when we can look and marvel at her majesty.

And experience peace.

I miss my #carnivorousPlants. If I got a few, the art for the zine would look better ('cause live models), and we could watch them grow as I share pics with info. More through the link💗

Y'all liked those baby turtles so much, well here's the zine page with them! I love this part 'cause it's got 🎵 propaganda! I'm doin' a wetland propaganda! 🎶

Bog Monsters zine:
https://tippitiwichet.wordpress.com/bog-monsters-how-carnivorous-plants-do-the-things-they-do/

#sciArt #humanMadeArt #zine #carnivorousPlants #amWriting

Box turtle under fern leaves with a yellow pitcher plant (Sarracenia flava) and the words:

Bogs are not the only wetlands that exist. Pocasins, also called evergreen shrub bogs, are bogs on hills. They might not have standing water, but will have a shallow water table that keeps the soil saturated most of the year. There are also tidal marshes, non-tidal marshes, swamps, and fens. Each has unique conditions that can affect what species live there, such as salt content or how acidic the water is.

Unique conditions can lead to unique species, many of them fascinating and beautiful. The long-leaf pine savannas of the Carolinas are filled with orchids, sundews, and pitcher plants as well as the Venus Flytraps, and many other species found nowhere else in the world. They are a valuable part of the ecology of the Atlantic Coastal Plain of the United states, which reaches from southern Virginia to northern Florida.

Peatlands are difficult for humans to build upon, therefore are becoming more and more necessary to wildlife fleeing urban sprawl. Many species of birds have adapted to living in peatlands. They offer a variety of habitats from open grass to shrubs and trees, and can shelter everything from forest dwelling birds to waterfowl, who can feed on shrimp, clams, crab, and oysters. Not only birds fleeing urban sprawl can shelter here, but migrating birds often make wetlands a regular rest stop.

I finally drew Morty the mock tomato frog. She always seemed like too much of a challenge, but now she seems like good practice. I have so many projects I'm working on, but I kind of want to draw her again, and maybe write a poem.

ETA - almost forgot. Wrote about her once:

So, why do Venus flytraps need to eat? Someone asked me this, after seeing a page of the zine. Turns out that even though my project isn't finished, that question has been answered :). It's just that a ton of more fascinating stuff is coming.

A page illustrating photosynthesis, using a Venus flytrap, asking "So, why do they need to eat?" and explaining that like other plants, they can get energy from the sun, so it's not to get energy. Illustrated to the cellular level with ink lines and colored pencil.

I made a video of the #carnivorousPlant zine! It's got #art and some of the prettiest photos I could find in my hoard. Also there's a couple of printables, a carnivorous plant word search and printable care sheet for Venus flytraps.

Two new pages of the #carnivorousPlant #zine are up! Click the link for the whole thing :)

Edited to replace the second page where I somehow managed to line up the text around the image without realizing I had duplicated an entire paragraph, because I'm sooo professional.
