    uniE621 "Agaric Altar"
    Hand-illustrated design, "Agaric Altar." Digital artwork using traditional methods. This drawing is inspired by the natural beauty of decay & its divine necessity in a healthy ecosystem. The deceased red fox at the center has become a source of life & nurishment to the circle of fly agaric mushrooms surrounding it. The entangled amalgamation of decomposing flesh & mycelium appears to morph into a single organism. illustrator designer…
    uniE621 "Unpopular Polinators"
    Hand-illustrated design, "Unpopular Polinators." Digital artwork using traditional methods. Arthropods are amazing creatures, & many of them play a much more important role in the world than we often realize. Though their level of contribution varies greatly from species to species, all the insects depicted in my drawing are pollinators—moths in particular rival bees & butterflies in this aspect. The praying mantis is a bit of a wild card, since they tend to prey upon other pollinators who play a more vital role. illustrator designer tshirtdesign…
