I love that inky fade over rooflines, so much above us. #night #illustration #ink #nightsky12 May 2026 11:46 +0000at://did:plc:a77g342mipstnr4gdfejiftk/app.bsky.feed.post/3mlnpo7vcax2thttps://bsky.app/profile/earlgreygory.bsky.social/post/3mll674dnml24I recently moved my studio space and was unable to find my standard pencil sharpener. This is what I found in a pinch.

This is an attempt at distilling my art a little. As I've shown pieces I have heard 3 consistent highlights for viewers: pop of color, details and the way the subjects jump off the page. Stick with me to see how this turns out! #bugsky #gardening #sciart #wipwednesday22 Apr 2026 11:31 +0000at://did:plc:a77g342mipstnr4gdfejiftk/app.bsky.feed.post/3mk3fiyqyhu2jhttps://bsky.app/profile/earlgreygory.bsky.social/post/3mjyv3ta4l52jAll lined up.

I finished the first but didn't not like the result. The composition was not what I hoped.
