Sappho's Reply

"my voice rings down through thousands of years

to coil around your body and give you strength,

you who have wept in direct sunlight,

who have hungered in invisible chains,

tremble to the cadence of my legacy:

an army of lovers shall not fail"

Season 1 (I dunno if I'll do more?) of PaleoArt finished.

When I had set out to draw ancient animals after doing creepy crawlies for most of a year, I realised I'd taken for granted how great it is for the animal you're drawing to be... finished?

A lot of PaleoArt is using your imagination to draw the completed animal as it would have appeared in life. As such, many of the animals I drew in this collection were closer to my typical cartoony art style than when I drew insects and arachnids.

Colour scheme was a huge part of the challenge as well. As you may see by looking at the earlier paleolife compared the later ones, I did a bit of experimentation with made up colours. And later on, I took a lot of inspiration from living animals for some colour schemes.

I might get back to PaleoArt eventually, but the challenge of interpreting fossils and inventing colour schemes has tired me out, creatively, a lot quicker than BugArt, so I will be taking a break from them for now. I don't know what's next, but we'll see.

It was announced today that NASA’s Curiosity Rover detected a huge methane spike in the Gale Crater that was thought to have been an ancient lake on the planet Mars. On Earth, methane is produced by living things such as bacteria 🦠 but also geologic activity where hot water 💧 runs through rocks. What could the source of methane on Mars be? Could primordial life have formed in the once ancient lake and is now hiding under the surface? .

Primordial Soup

The ancestors of our cells

lived in the deepest oceans,

where eons of beings swell,

the ancestors of our cells,

it’s a tale too big to tell,

yet the tiniest of notions;

the ancestors of our cells

lived in the deepest oceans.

The ancient city of Myra, located in and around the town of Demre in Antalya in Turkey, was connected to the sea by a canal to the west of the Myros River (Demre Stream). On the other side of the canal, the ancient port of Andriake was used for sea transportation and trade.

Myra is especially famous for its Lycian rock tombs, Roman theater, and Byzantine Saint Nicholas Church (Santa Claus). Rock tombs, Lycian inscriptions, and coins show that Myra has been in existence at least since the 5th century BC.

According to Strabo, Myra, one of the six largest cities of the Lycian Union, was called Myrrh in the Lycian inscriptions. The 2nd century AD was the time of Myra's great development.

According to @heritageauctions this piece is from the Oligocene period, making it from 23 million to 33.9 million years old! . “Embedded within a clear piece of amber, a small praying mantis sits at attention, frozen forever in time. The piece, which measures just slightly over one inch tall, was sold via Heritage Auctions for $6,000 in 2016. . The pristine piece of amber, which comes from the Dominican Republic, gives a rare view of this incredible mantis. . 📸 photo credit: @heritageauctions . .

The pre-Nochian and Nochian times of Mars, between 4.5 to 3.7 bya, correspond to roughly the Hadean of Earth 🌎 . During the Hadean, oceans formed and the earliest cells started to form from nucleus acids, lipids, and amino acids formed from basic biochemical reactions during what is referred to as the RNA world. . Evidence of flowing water that existed on the surface of Mars is evident in Nochian areas on Mars such as near the ancient Hellas crater. Thus, these areas could be ripe with fossils of primitive life that could have formed on Mars, as well. .
