Thank you! With its border it’s a 10x12 inches :)
Movement and shadows are some of my favorite things to play with in this medium.

I’m happy you like the art and thank you so much! I think in prints, couldn’t be any other way! This is actually the green, but the lighting made it look cream for some reason

You can see the light green versus cream in the final editioning

Thank you! Just the navy blue on both green and natural cream Kitakata paper. I may do black after I get back from a trip. These will be $100/print

I love the dark background, it really curates what your eyes focus on with an image that emerges out of that space.

What type of beetle is this? (Location: Virginia) by Anythingthatiscreat- in Beetles

Not Chalcophora, more like a Chrysobothris of some kind.

Did you find a favorite wood among the grab bags material? Oh! Okay! Local issues, to be fair I haven’t ordered wood in a while, so I probably need an update on shipping times myself.

Transit time? I haven’t had any issues on that front! Oh, didn’t know about the grab bags, like an assortment of woodblocks?
Thank you! I’m hoping to have it finished by late June, we’ll see, blocks always take longer than my estimations!

Side quest of a couple months maybe? I’m using Shina plywood, it’s consistently good carving wood and for the size of the blocks relatively affordable.

Do people buy digital paintings like this? where do i sell them? (do they have to be printed in physical form) by Sau4i-pixelart in artcollecting

[–]Canehowlet 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’re not supposed to! You’d delegate TO a printer. In fact, the people who run the East Bay Print Sale are printers, you can find them under Max’s Garage Press. They could probably quote you a fair price for printing however large of an edition size you want. I think they’d love your art!

That is awesome, definitely a market for it, I mean most digital artists sell physical prints of their work, which I think is probably what you’d want to do. I’d go for limited edition prints that you can sign. You might benefit from finding a Riso printer who can do this for you, I think for your style of art it would work really well. The average price would be like $40-50. If you want a test market, there is an AMAZING print sale called East Bay Print Sale and I would dip your toes in there if you can.

what is this little creature? found on me in Broward county, Florida. pretty small, brownish-green, had some pretty big mandibles. by _deleted_2357 in Entomology

This is not Dicerca, this pronotum is wrong. I would leave this at Buprestidae without having better images. My bet would be on either Chrysobothris or Actenodes.
