Sea of Rays

A strange dragon was spotted, briefly, ducking in & under thunderclouds. Eyewitnesses say it was almost disorienting to look at, the way it’s massive wings & crackling body wove through the sky. Efforts to verify its existence are underway.

I hope I won’t regret this… I decided to develop my own version of #JurassicWorldRebirth ‘s mutant, with more obviously avian influences.

#Sciart #Paleoart The Jinju Formation (112~106 Ma) is a stratigraphic unit with the most abundant fossil record in Cretaceous Korea. Fossils including insects, spiders, isopods, fishes, plants, and trackways of extremely diverse vertebrates are known from this stratigraphic unit.

sea ducks! 🌊🦆🪶

Hi #PortfolioDay, I'm a freelance artist who has worked in concept art, illustration, games & publishing. I love creating vast, atmospheric scenes full of nature and wildlife, using both traditional and digital mediums. Excited to share more this year!

A hacker created an "infinite maze" trap for AI web crawlers if the server detects a web crawler from an AI firm ... ... it spins up infinite pages filled with crap, so the crawler gets stuck scraping useless stuff Fun @jasonkoebler.bsky.social piece: www.404media.co/email/7a39d9...

My poster on the life appearance of Megalosaurus, as presented at SVPCA 2024. A paper on this, and the history of M. reconstructions, is currently in the system and should (hopefully!) be published later this year. Posting this in the interim as a poss. useful #paleoart reference. #Sciart #dinosaur

"While poorly suited for most caravans, #Ankylosaurus excel at many things including beekeeping. Their slow walking speed means that most bees tend to ignore them as part of the landscape and the few who don't are unable to both them through their thick, armor plated skin." #paleoart #dinosaur

For people interested in the #paleostream formation pieces I recommend the interactive map that @montanoceratops.bsky.social build! Also gives you an idea of what blind spots we still have and ideas what to cover next. montanoceratops.github.io/Formations/

Ngl I thought Coelophysis was like chicken sized. Late Triassic is way more interesting than I thought! I see why people want a Triassic episode in documentaries! Artist: @mariolanzas.bsky.social Video: youtu.be/rdd6aMOZwOc?...

Results from the #paleostream! Tameryraptor, Ianthasaurus, Yinostius and Nemegtosaurus.

"Oh no, anti-bird spikes. Those humans sure have outwitted me this time." #birds 📷

I made this ‘Backyard Birds of the Northeast’ print last year, based largely on photographs I took on my walks around my local NY forest. #sciart #birdsinart #ornithology

"River markets are the best places to acquire fresch caught fish directly from the anglers themselves, and are usually where you can get the best deals as well. Experienced traders know which vendors they can haggle down, and which are best to just buy at the asking price." #spinosaurus #paleoart

Deadly Nadder, Scauldron, and Stormcutter from HTTYD in my style! I’m trying to keep their core shapes recognizable while adding subtle anatomical tweaks to add a sense of realism.

Totally normal animal. Digital portrait of Nyctosaurus.

Just making sure that everyone is aware of this crab that NOAA scientists found

My 25 years of palaeoart chronology... In 2020 I won the opportunity to create a series of Dinosauria coins for The Royal Mint & the Natural History Museum, London. There was Megalosaurus, Iguanodon, & here's my reconstruction of Hylaeosaurus. #SciArt #SciComm #PaleoArt #Dinosaurs #Hylaeosaurus

My 25 years of palaeoart chronology... In 2020 @davehone.bsky.social & Dr Tom Holtz published a paper arguing #Spinosaurus was not a semi-aquatic pursuit predator but a shallow water wading predator instead. This was the press release artwork I did for them. #SciArt #SciComm #PaleoArt #Dinosaurs

Many megalosaurs. Quick study sketches of the pointy end of megalosaurus. #sciart
