The mature #Tyrannosaurus I did for @TCMIndy #Dinosphere exhibit. Focus of the interactive exhibit is #dinosaur diets so meat was added hanging out of the mouth. #trex  🦖 #scicomm #paleoart #watercolor

The #Acheroraptor I painted in #watercolors for the new #Dinosphere exhibit at @TCMIndy. One focus of the exhibit is to showcase dinosaur diets so the unlucky mammal was added in after my initial concept sketch. #scicomm #paleoart #dinosaur

I’d like to remind everyone that my #Spinosaurus #watercolor from 8yrs ago still continues to dodge inaccuracies every new paper that comes out, including the latest one suggesting they walked underwater like hippos which is what I literally made it doing.

I'm excited to finally share that I was commissioned by @TCMIndy to paint two landscapes and eighteen animals to be displayed in the brand new #Dinosphere exhibit.  My art will be displayed in the form of an interactive activity in the Art Lab portion of the exhibit. #paleoart

Newest #watercolor is #Atrociraptor. Known only from some skull and teeth, this #dromaeosaur lived in what is now #Alberta, #Canada, in the late Cretaceous. Get ready for a much uglier version of it in the upcoming #JurassicWorldDominion movie. #scicomm #paleoart #dinosaur

Newest #watercolor of a pair of #Gorgosaurus. This slightly smaller, leggier relative of #Tyrannosaurus is the favorite dinosaur of @50cent. #scicomm #dinosaur #paleoart

Newest #watercolor is of the #hadrosaur, #Rhinorex. Unearthed in Utah, the genus name translates to “Nose King” because of its large, downturned snout. (A trait common to quite a few other hadrosaurs, actually) 👃👑 #dinosaur #paleoart #watercolors #scicomm #Utah

Newest watercolor of #Tianyulong. Appears to be variation within the species of feather arrangement. Rear individual based on verbal description by @Dave_Hone of an unpublished specimen. Inspired by #CrestedNewts for the colors. #paleoart #dinosaur #watercolor #scicomm

The fact that people with 0 actual credibility in the subject feel confident enough to STILL comment like this depresses me. #paleoart

Starting #Drawdinovember or #archovember rather with #Shuvosaurus. I used to dig up this creature’s fossils with the Mesalands Dinosaur Museum several years ago. #paleoart

I’m trying my best to do a few of @mabgraves’s #inktober prompts this year. Here’s our monster family portrait for day 1. Werewolf+vampire=…a baby. Just a cute baby. #mabsdrawloweenclub #inktober2021 #watercolor #monsters #werewolf #vampire #monsterselfportrait #Halloween

Here’s the #watercolor in more detail commissioned for @MG_Mosasaurus87 and @boydpaleo’s hot off the press research on a brackish water #Mosasaurus in the Hell Creek formation. Imagine seeing that fluke and feeling the tongue on your feet! #paleoart escholarship.org/uc/item/8v08w2…

Concept sketches and color tests for a commission to do with @SVP_vertpaleo I can’t say anything more about yet. You can tell I’m one of the few artists left who doesn’t work digitally by the coffee drips. #paleoart #sketch #watercolors

Newest #watercolor is the giant #Permian swamp beast, #Mastodonsaurus giganteus. Basically what you get when you mix a newt with a crocodile and give it tusks. 🐸+🐊+🐗 #paleoart #scicomm #temnospondyl

Newest #watercolor is #Lambeosaurus lambei. The last several dinosaurs I painted happened to all be grayish so I went with something more colorful (but still realistic). #paleoart #dinosaur #art

New #watercolor of #Giganotosaurus. I can convey a sense of size by lowering the horizon and featuring tiny birds flying level to and under the giant. #paleoart #dinosaur #scicomm #dinosaur
