Happy #ValentinesDay !

Art from LOVE, VIOLET by Charlotte Sullivan Wild & me (FSG/ Macmillan)

#valentines #KidLitArt #MastoArt #KidLit

For this Valentine's Day...I offer nature's expression of attraction...a melding of #ejecta, the lingering heat of placement, and mechanical comingling...the #Agglomerate.

Conglomerate and agglomerate are synonyms, except when used as business and geological terms. For geology, an agglomerate is "a mass of angular volcanic fragments united by heat".

In this case, the slug of molten material gathers angular blocks and bombs as it is carried downslope or along the top/sides of molten lava flows. This comingling and agglomeration is likened to the gathering of snow crystals as snowballs are formed.

You might say the heat and attraction and falling/rolling comingling are the closest to passion that is expressed in rocks....rocks falling into permanent embrace.

More #texture: #crocodile stitch sleepy owl. It eats a lot of #yarn and leaves holes, so I put the stuffing in an old panties sock.

Happy 32nd Birthday to #Lemmings - still my favourite game I've ever worked on.

And to those who worked on it.

You can read about it - and look at more pics, over on my website.

This graphic shared by @NWSBurlingtonBot is helpful for understanding my first #Vermont #winter. We’ve had much less #snow than normal, but that doesn’t mean that we won’t get more in the next month or so. At least at higher elevations, we should still be building snowpack until April.

enter. find a responsible person. if not, move on. explain you want a bungalow or setting up tent. wait until phone calls are made. after watching a bungalow they realise all are booked. setting up the tent, where ever you want is ok, except where you feel safe of wind and weather. ask if there is a 🛀. negociating the price is impossible. accept and notice the shower is broken...

fill all bottles, find a spot where you feel safe, cook, setup tent, sleep 😇

I'm really not into #Valentine stuff, but here's a wee love pug I made for an app a few years ago 🐶 ❤️

A 16th C Japanese medical text explains how diseases were caused by tiny bugs that entered the body and were known as creepy germs or mushi. One of these was known as kosho, an odd, bearded, snake-like, sake-drinking creature whose hat protects it from medicine.

In #JapaneseFolklore hyakki yagyo is the night parade of one hundred demons. On inauspicious nights, all the #yokai, ghosts and other supernatural creatures parade through the streets of #Japan, singing and dancing wildly. For anyone foolish enough to be outside, or even to peek out of their window, an encounter with the pandemonium of the dreaded night parade will result in death, or being spirited away by malevolent yokai.

Just a few days after catching two comets in one image, I captured ~20th magnitude Comet P121 Shoemaker-Holt also very close to Comet C/2022 E3 (ZTF) last night, while streaming the live images to NNHS Astronomy Section in Northampton.

As it's Lemmings 32nd birthday today, here's your reminder that there is a Lemmings statue in Dundee.
