21/100 The Spotted Salamander!! They can be close to 10 inches long. Wow!! I feel like I should be able to find one then....they spend most of their time underground though. I love their bright cartoonish spots! #nhfloraandfauna #the100dayproject #salamander #playfulpattern #amphibian #newhampshirelife #amphibiansofinstagram
Celebrate Earth Day everyday by bringing reusable shopping bags with you to every store! Follow @saveour70 for a chance to win this one-find out how this Friday! As well as facts about the ocean that my husband posts every Friday. Did you know that the oceans cover more than 70% of the Earth’s surface? Let’s take care of them and support the scientists studying them!
Day 20/100 Happy Earth Day!! This is Loesel’s Wide Lipped Orchid found in North America, Europe, and Asia. While this tiny orchid is widespread it is rare to spot one. They are considered rare and threatened in New Hampshire and they love wetlands, ponds, and bogs. Who knew orchids grew wild around here!?! #orchids #wildplants #theweeknd #nhfloraandfauna #newhampshireflowers #theshire #livingfreeinthe603 #bogplants #botany #floraldrawing #plantlife #happyearthday
19/100 The Balsam Fir Tree. Popular for decorating at Christmas and smelling delicious!!! Sketched this on the iPad and did all the needle texture with my finger, way faster than the pencil. 🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲
18/100 Pointed Blue-Eyed Grass. This is a tiny wildflower, just a half inch! But a beauty! It looks large in my marker illustration. Look for it around New England in May & June- it does grow in the entire eastern half of the US as well. Adorable and my favorite color, blueviolet 💙💜 I also love these vibrant chartreuse centers💛💚 #nhfloraandfauna #wildflowers #blueeyedgrass #the100dayproject #floral #newhampshirelife #grasses #wherethewildthingsgrow #newhampshirewildflower #blueviolet
17/100 The White Birch- New Hampshire’s state tree!!!! Who doesn’t love a good Birch tree!?! They are so pretty year round. My favorite way to draw these is with monoprinting, check out the process and the ghost print, the second photo here- it prints around 70% lighter the second time, always interesting! Very happy to be living in the forests again with all the amazing trees!!!! It’s worth this psycho spring weather🌲🌲🌲🌲
16/100 The Red Fox!! I was lucky enough to see a big one last summer in Northern Michigan for the first time. 🦊WOW 🦊they are stunning close up, especially the red ones. These little guys can also run 45 mph and the adults will grow a thicker coat in the winter and wrap themselves with their tails to keep warm when they sleep out in the snow. They really seem to be half cat, half dog to me! I got my hands dirty today with some acrylics 🎨for this one. #foxpainting #meowwoof #redfox #nhfloraandfauna #newhampshireanimals #animalstudy #theshire #newhampshirelife #the100dayproject #foxy #animallover #winteranimals #newhampshireartist
15/100 The Smoky Shrew basically a rat with a pointy nose. I disliked drawing this immensely, sorry to the shrew fans out there. (Mainly just the tail creeps me out) I thought I would give him a friend to maybe make him cuter?!?! #theshrew #the100dayproject #nhfloraandfauna #newhampshirewildlife #basicallyarat
