One of my favorite things about Twitter has been the various accounts that post macroscopic photos of tiny bugs. These weird little gems remind me always that nothing I can imagine is stranger or more improbable than something that actually exists in the world, if you only pay attention.

Some of the accounts I follow for this reason:

@bernoid bugs and fungi, illustrator’s perspective

@ngfl3333 underwater weird stuff, beautifully photographed

@inaturalist all kinds of cool nature stuff

@am_anatiala finds some really great accounts to follow for this stuff, along with political/personal commentary

My current work on display at the Harmony Collective gallery is a dozen of older crayon and ink “indent and resist” drawings. I haven’t done any in a while, partly because they are physically demanding (a lot of pressing hard while drawing and coloring, followed by a lot of scraping). But I love the way the process completely obscures the end result. Whatever I think I’m aiming for, the revelation is always somewhat surprising.
