I'm beyond thankful to be honoured with the Lanzendorf Award for 2D Paleoart at #SVP2022! Thank you @SVP_vertpaleo @ROMtoronto @DavidEvans_ROM for always believing in me! My winning piece is my reconstruction mural of the Devonian Miguasha formation for the #DawnOfLife Gallery!
My task- @ROMtoronto team needed a flesh-model Elpistostege for the new #DawnofLife gallery, to fit in a 175cmx40cm area, at life-size of the beautiful fossil described @Nature by Cloutier et al 2020, & to be wall mounted as if swimming gently underwater. #paleoart #sciart
I caught an Elpistostege watsoni! I know the best place for a fish like this is a museum, so I sent it to @ROMtoronto for the #DawnofLife exhibit! I'll post some making-of process... #paleoart #SciArtSeptember #ancient #sciart
