Duuuunnnn duun… duuunnnnnnnn dun dun dun dun… oh – wait – not that kind of Jaws. Working on a weathered Edmontosaurus jaw – bone texture is “meh” at best, needing a lot of consolidation. Some of the bones coming out of the "Bismarck area" site have scavenging marks, which is pretty gnarly.
I sold my first painting(s)!!
My partner’s coworker reached out, and asked me for two paintings! She bought one of my #Velociraptor vs. #Protoceratops paintings, and commissioned this one!
She requested #Tyrannosaurus rex and another animal, and said that I could get creative with everything else! So I ended up having it with #Anzu wyliei, which turned out to be a great choice!
If you want to see more paintings like this, be sure to leave a like and follow!
Here's a #WIP for an upcoming commission!
Can you figure out what animals are going to be featured?
I was asked by the museum director to make supplementary #paleoart for the previously headless #fossil #gar #fish at the Earth Experience #Museum in Murfreesboro!
Don’t mind us, just getting plastered in the field!
Hot weather on the Bismarck fossil dig (95F, no wind). Found a T. rex tooth, and Edmontosaurus metatarsal IV.
