I’ve been working on an absolutely enormous, multi-layered painting to create a parallax background for my game. I just tested it for the first time and it works!!
Thank goodness, because this was a LOT of work to paint 😅

This is a wheat cover crop. One of the ways we feed the soil is by growing cover crops year-round on all followed beds. This stops erosion, adds organic matter, and feeds the soil's microbiome. #CoverCrops #farmlife #RegenerativeAgriculture #sustainablefarming #sustainablefarm #soillife

What makes leaf litter attractive to decomposers? 🍂
As Christian Wirth noted at ARBOfun last week, nutrient resorption varies among tree species - leaving litter feeders with a diverse buffet to choose from. #TreeDi-MultiTroph conference #Ecology #SoilLife #Biodiversity

Happy to see "Teaming with Microbes" on #booksky. I love the books visual #Soillife guides for laymen - it's so accessible.

The artwork in Cellscape is inspired by real microscope views, and of course it’s all hand drawn. Here’s a photo of my compost I took this afternoon as a reference for decomposing organic material. I think it’s so pretty 😍

Just released my biggest Cellscape playtest update so far! Some major new mechanics change the game quite a bit. Fungi are now part of the ecosystem, bacteria spawn via decaying nodes, new creatures, and a lot more. Also, now you can customize the controls!

🪲 The undergarden is alive.
Bumblebees nest in soil. Ground beetles hunt pests. Birds forage. Even pill bugs have a role.
Support the smallest lives:
🌿 Leave some leaf litter
🚫 Skip the rake

Slow Looking And Soil’s Hustle Bustle
I just learnt a new word reading a scientific study: Slow Looking. Did you ever look slower than usual? Some inspirations how to do it, in museums, galleries, or nature.

The cover art is finished for my new book and I LOVE IT!
This safari tour of the life in soil and what is means to us, is now available for pre-order as ebook, soft and hardcover in the UK and Commonwealth. Published in August next year (US date soon), I hope it'll entice everyone to love soil! 🧪🪱
