Six-spot burnet (Zygaena filipendulae) in watercolor and ink for #SciArtSeptember day 8: ruby. These intensely colored, day-flying moths are impossible to miss in European meadows and grasslands during the summer months.

Day 8 #SciArtSeptember: ruby. My uterus #embroidery, Bleeding Vessel (2022), has some ruby elements in the beading. #SciArt
Day 8 : Ruby #SciArtSeptember (with a lot of imperfection... Let's call it Wabi Sabi)
The beautiful and terrible 2015 Rochelle-Fairdale EF4 tornado for #SciArtSeptember day 8, ruby. I started with watercolor but finished with gouache, which I think I prefer for stormy paintings.

#SciArtSeptember 4: Azure.
The coelacanth, a long-extinct creature that was accidentally discovered alive. Though it may look like just another type of fish, it is more closely related to us than other fishy inhabitants of the ocean. #SciArt
For Day 7 of 2026 #SciArtSeptember #Ruby and #StarTrek60 here is the dumbest bad scifi thing the ST universe has ever dreamt up: the Red Matter. I hate that the Abrams/Kelvin Timeline is technically canon lol. Thankfully there's plenty left to love over the rest of these 60 amazing years #LLAP 🦑🐡🧪
Today’s #SciArtSeptember prompt is the colour ruby, so I made a handprinted lino block print of a male ruby-throated hummingbird above Canada columbine (also called red columbine) flowers. These gorgeous little hummingbirds are important pollinators, with a preference for red flowers
For Day 7 of 2026 #SciArtSeptember #Fawn here is a Sivatherium sp. — which surely had big-ass fawns, one presumes. (Also in general I suck at drawing mammals so here's my average shot haha) 🦑🐡🧪
Day 8 - #ruby.
A couple yardbirds: Ruby-crowned Kinglet and Ruby-throated Hummingbird.
Smaller scale presented challenges for me. Muddied the face of the kinglet.
Tried background color too. Verdict is out on if I like it.
