Joining in for the first day of #pleinairapril by @warriorpainters.bsky.social Painting outside is always a bit intimidating but I'm glad I went for it, just sat down on the roadside in between narcissus and go! #traditionalart #gouache
Speculative primitive spinosaurid inspired by megalosaurids and Monolophosaurus Colors based in Potamites montanicola suggested by my friend @cascoclauda.bsky.social as usual c: #paleoart for @edgescience.bsky.social !!
SPPOOOSSSHHH... PHHHFFFFFFF... SSSSSSHHHHHHHH... To paraphrase Bob Ross, you have to make the noises when looking at #paleoart, otherwise it doesn't work. 2018 illustration of giant Triassic ichthyosaurs Shonisaurus, surfacing in waters that once covered Nevada. #art #fossil #paleontology #sciart
result of this week's special 2 hour #Paleostream flocking! for this flocking we spent 2 hours on just Spicomellus, however, i spent an additional 6 hours on my piece #paleoart #sciart #scicomm #dinosaur
Despite being ill I think this first formation #paleostream of the year turned out pretty good. The Upper Elliot Formation from the early Jurassic of South Africa is an important piece for our understanding of sauropod evolution but beyond that it's just a really cool assemblage...
New #paleoart on #FossilFriday: #Tiktaalik sees the world. Discussions of early #tetrapods often focus on limbs and lungs, but major changes also took place in their eyes. Seeing further and clearer than any animal before, they were the first to clearly see sunsets, stars, and the moon. #sciart
Having a lot of fun lately making/remaking some models to learn new techniques, and trying to put as much detail as I can into them. Fun fact- through my teenage years, Carnotaurus was my favorite dinosaur. Yet it is severely underrepresented in my portfolio 🤷♂️
my first vampire the masquerade character: anthrax mckenzie!!!
Result from the Mammoth Site #paleostream! This has been our first mammoth steppe formation stream, dwelling into some the classic giants of the Pleistocene. This site in South Dakota offered a unique opportunity is that is has so much stuff preserved in situ that we can...
Results from the #paleostream! A wish by @vincent-notitalian.bsky.social showing a spec evo version of the Toarcian, Falciscaris and Zavacephale.
Quickish Nanotyrannus lethaeus anatomy study. Really cool to see two papers more or less back to back that very conclusively reestablish NanoT as a distinct taxon.
A male Nanotyrannus lancensis sports their sharp and contrasting breeding season colors. They lift their head up and catch the whiff of the promise of hope... a female...
A pair of Stegosaurus leisurely walking while a group of Hesperornithoides bicker in the foreground I just think everyone needs to see Stegosaurus every now and then. Makes everyone happier 😊 This is an illustration of my licensing library and is available for non exclusive licensing. #paleoart
While I love the weird & less popular fern types, the family Osmundaceae (Late Permian-present) really have that classic fern look to them #paleobotany #paleoart #sciart
Continuing my exploration of Jurassic paleobotany, this time with ferns of the family Dipteridaceae. Fossil taxa like Clathropteris have a really interesting shape that for me is pretty difficult to get right. #paleobotany
