a watercolor painting of a reddish crab spider with it's two front legs raised in a threat display, with a real quarter below it for size reference. The spider painting is just slightly larger than the quarter.

"Fight Me!" - watercolor miniature painting of a little crab spider who used to live in my work studio. Sometimes I'd have to carefully move them to safety, and they'd lift their little legs up in a threat display every time. Sorry buddy!

Orb weaver season.

#spiderfriend #spookyboy

A striking yellow and black spider with long shiny legs that are black up to just past the topmost joints, making it kind of look like it's wearing thigh-high patent leather boots. Its body has a black and yellow pattern that looks kind of like a trio of cartoony aliens standing atop one another. Or, a tree with three sets of two yellow spots. Its head (facing downward) is mostly white. It is sitting on a slightly torn squash leaf.

CW: REALLY COOL SPIDER

I went outside to pull vines and trim some growth around the edges of the garden beds, but then decided it would be more efficient (and fun!) use the weed whacker.

AND, I found a Spider Friend guarding my gourd vines from squash bugs!

A bright white zig-zaggy spider web is strung between some stems and clover leaves. It looks like someone just took a white crayon and SCRIBBLED

Some spider frand wove this beautiful little web beneath the leaves of a volunteer gourd-or-melon plant. It's the perfect spot to catch any bugs that might try to eat said plant!

Small, black jumping spider silhouetted on a mint stalk. The closeup view looks like the mint stalks and leaves are a forest.

A Pink Zebra Beauty tarantula standing on a rock and some leaves and sticks

Got to see this gorgeous Pink Zebra Beauty tarantula at @oregonzoo.bsky.social. Their insect zoo is a favorite spot for our toddler, and usually the tarantulas are snuggled up somewhere hard to see, so this one being out and about was a rare treat!

8 in today’s #PlantParade is Mr. #TurtleVine! He’s the burnout gifted kid of the house. We was so cute and fluffy a few months ago but now he’s a leggy mess!

I found this cute little spider when I was soaking him

Design for a Dark elf courtesan with her spider companion!

Working up the design for my Dk Elf courtesan, Cash (Cashmere). When not 'on the clock', she's off poking her enemies in pressure points until they fall over!

SHE ALSO HAS A COMPANION JUMPING SPIDER (Portia) THAT HIDES IN HER BACKPACK IN COMBAT! #drow #darkelf #courtesan #spiderfriend

Orb weaver spinning a web on my back porch this last fall.

I love watching these ladies weave. She left her babies on my porch. Can’t wait for spring!

Found this pretty garden spider on the fence a couple months ago.
