Hey everyone! I'm still learning how to use Mastodon, so thanks for your patience! This is Moon Gazers, my newest piece inspired by the recent discovery that jumping spiders can see the craters on the moon. https://mastodon.art/media/8-bRqPpi4jM5rm0XJOI
@rhea OMG I love this beautiful little terror O.O 🕷 😍
@jakallx aww this guys a jumping spider, way too itty bitty to hurt a thing like us. Jumping spiders will also apparently chase laser pointers-just like cats!
@rhea aaahh haha that's so cute! They sound like a good pet but i already have too many uninvited spiders (the big, hairy kind) in my life lol
@jakallx lol I understand. There's a Parsons Spider that lives in my studio. I've named her Gertrude.
@jakallx I don't think I'm allergic so I'm not sure Gertrude could murder me if she tried lol. I on the other hand try hard not to accidentally murder her. I did accidentally squish one of her sisters...
@rhea oh no! now you owe gertrude a blood debt. but I'm glad she can't hurt you!
@rhea i googled Parsons spider and omg Gertrude isn't going to accidentally murder you, right??
I just get a load of Huntsman spiders that like to make my bedroom their place of residence for a couple of days without asking me first
