Happy birthday to chemist William Henry Perkin (1838-1907)! This #lino block print ‘William Henry Perkin Discovers Mauve’ is about how the British chemist & entrepreneur made the serendipitous discovery of the 1st synthetic organic dye: mauveine. ⁠
⁠
Perkins entered the Royal College of Chemistry in London in 1853 when he was only 15, studying with August Wilhelm von Hofmann. 🧵1/n

Linocut print of Perkins in grey, a suited, bearded Victorian, at a wooden lab bench covered in glassware and chemical apparatus. He holds a flask at eye level with bright mauve fluid. Wide bright mauve lines radiate outward from it in the background.

A colourful mothman for Fraya!! This was super fun to do, thank you for letting me play with colours and for the chill chats!

This was an edit on the regular mothman flash I have (mini cryptids) to have a little colour splash night scene.

🌙✨️ Bookings available via venue, forms, or email (hanandraws@gmail.com) ✨️🌙

Photo of a colour tattoo on a forearm. The design is my mini mothman flash tattoo design, with a bright colourful backsplash of purple night sky, with a crescent moon and soft pink fluffy clouds. In the middle is a little chibi-like mothman, happy as can be.
The same, at another angle
Another angle!
You guessed it, another angle!
