Easter egg discovered.
A bowman in black draws his longbow. Next to him, another bowman, handsome, crouches with foot resting on a rock. His bow is in his hand. At his other side, a boyish sprite.
From an original Story idea by John Reppion, alas, this project never came out. But I loved the idea. #bowman #fantasy #penandink
Licensing and public domain… two different things
A very handsome siamese mix cat with deep blue eyes in a cloudlike tissue bed.
Eminently deserving of the COOLEST CAT moniker! You can vote for this handsome devil who is JAMES BOND COOL and sports a HEIDELBERG DUELING SCAR in the VIRGINIA LIVING Cute pet photo contest where Thatcher is currently THIRD in the COOL CAT CATEGORY. contest.virginialiving.com/cutestpet202...
Well, he's named after Becky Thatcher in the Mark Twain books. All my pets are named after Mark Twain characters.

No, this story is about brothers transformed into swans.
A pencil drawing of six young man who are transforming into swans, their arms stretching out as wings.
The Six Swans. I started picking at this drawing when I was a teenager, set it aside and finished it some years later. I kept meaning to do a new version before I miss my chance.
Pencil.

A portrait of Legolas. He is holding a crystal in his hand. He wears a delicate tiara with a leaf motif and a jewel.
"Gimli's Gift" Watercolor. This was drawn in highly rendered pencil and finished with light washes. #lotr #lordoftherings #watercolor #legolas
A pencil portrait of Billy Boyd as Pipping from the Lord of the Rings films. He has a slight smile. He is wearing a scarf.
A pencil portrait of Pippin! Say that three times fast. I used to do a lot of Lord of the Rings subjects, both from film and book sources. Some of my earliest sales at science fiction conventions back in the 1970's were of Lord of the Rings fan art. #lotr #lordoftherings #pippin #billyboyd

A profile drawing of the elf lord Thranduil, not based on the Lord of the Rings films images. He is wearing armor and a crown of leaves. The background is an antique paper.
Thranduil from The Lord of the Rings books. A pencil drawing which was imported into Photoshop over handmade paper, and then selectively colored. About 2004.
🚀 If you need more of this 👇🏻 sweet, sweet space nerd joy, may I once again recommend Mary Robinette Kowal’s Lady Astronaut book series & S1-3 of For All Mankind (Apple TV) [I make no promises regarding anything past the end of season 3]
Incredible that human beings figured out how to do this. How cool. What if we only did cool stuff
Those four #Artemis astronauts went from weightlessness to a 3+G re-entry to splashdown and now they’ve been at 1G bobbing in the ocean for half an hour while they wait to get pulled out of their little tin can. I do not envy how their stomachs must be feeling right now. 😬
READ THE ROOM, WHITE HOUSE
The Integrity capsule floating in the water surrounded by small boats a side hatch is open and someone is going in
The #Artemis II crew capsule Integrity’s side hatch is open and recovery crew are going in to assess the astronauts and (hopefully soon) pull them out
