Trying to catch up, been busy getting uni work and commissions out, but powered through a couple of low effort sketches for days 7, 8 and 9 of #SciArtSeptember !
#SciArtSeptember Day 10: Echoing
Did you know that the horn of a ram is called *Shofar*?
They are used as a musical instruments (often for religious purposes).

Pour le #10 du #sciartseptember #echoing, repost du cachalot nain du #junesp de l'année dernière et son système d'écholocation :
#SciArtSeptember Day 10: Echoing. I know I won't be the only one to think of glorious #bats. These are a #Daubentonsbat and a #Natterersbat close up. Without bat #echolocation there'd be a lot more nocturnal insects out there.
For prompt 10. Echoing I chose a cow tail ray- recently confirmed to communicate using striking clicks. #SciArtSeptember https://t.co/IUar3y9oGz
#SciArtSeptember day 9 - shell

#SciartSeptember Day 9: #Shell This one gave pause for thought. Crab shell? The crystalline shells of diatoms? Mussels or molluscs? No. I'm settling for more #botanicalillustration. This time it's a #Walnut in its shell, in #penandink & #watercolour. And a walnut tree to go with

Day 458: Serrated hinge-back tortoise (Kinixys erosa)
(Also #Sciartseptember day 8 "creeping")
Has a handy hinge on the back end of its carapace so it can close the door for protection!

#SciArtSeptember Day 6: Soft. Softshell #turtles are best known for their pliable carapaces, but I truly love their snorkel snouts. #SciArt from Our Living World, Vol. 3 (1885), in @BioDivLibrary via @IllinoisLibrary: https://t.co/xOxMJIcAxR
#SciArtSeptember here’s my entry for alarming! A lil puffer fish inflating because it feels threatened.
#SciArtSeptember Day 6!
"Soft" with a pair of relaxing desert cotton tails.
#SciArtSeptember theme today is “soft” and a good excuse to step out of my comfort zone, drawing an invertebrate and using pastels.
Vampire squid (Vampyroteuthis infernalis) sketch.
Days 2 and 5 of #SciArtSeptember (because doing things in order, or on time, is hard 😛) A “monstrous” Texas Blind Salamander, top predator of its cave environment, and “mirrored” axolotls
Some raw photos of two of the three drawings I picked at this last week. I decided to warm up by inking over a now forgotten species of fossil archosaur (can anyone ID this?), and testing out a brush pen by drawing a fish based on Poraspis. #SciArtSeptember . Enjoy!
Today’s #SciArtSeptember theme is “mirrored”.
Apparently, the cleaner wrasse (Labroides dimidiatus) is able to recognise their reflection on a mirror, this showing some sense of self-consciousness (Kohda et. al 2018).
For today’s #SciArtSeptember prompt “mirrored” I think the Mirror Neuron fits quite well!!

#SciArtSeptember Day 5: Mirrored.
A green darner dragonfly (Anjax junius) lays their eggs in a placid pond.
