So here's a twitter thread about the study I made some art for last year! Maddy was researching children and adolesents' methods of data gathering and taking on advice for her PhD. As part of that, she made a little game in which kids would count or guesstimate how many of each type of alien was on a little planet, and rate their confidence in that decision, every now and then getting advice from a little cosmonaut or on a screen. I was commissioned to make the assets for that! The tricky part was designing a large number of colour schemes that even children who potentially had colour blindness could pick out.

Here's the link to the tweet

Here's the link to the study, called "I know better! Emerging metacognition allows adolescents to ignore false advice"

A little Madonna I made for my gran for Christmas!

Made out of super sculpey... although I forgot to bring decent paints with me so I ended up using whatever was in the house, which ended up being enamel paint and tempuras...

The alien culprits that wouldn’t let me sleep a while back

Inktober 5 and 6. Mustachioed potato at the request of @lenleg , with a little Book of Life reference thrown in

that sure was a peculiar palette to choose

sketchbook time!

piano playing at St Pancras Station; the first player played really happy pieces, and the second, a woman who said she'd come from some Eastern-European country (I can't remember exactly which right now) played quite intensely, but had a really sunny personality.
