Paleo Art has gone through major transformations in the past 30 years, from the discovery of the first fully feathered dinosaurs to the discovery of actual pigment cells and skin impressions preserved by the fossilization process. Far gone are the days of long-necked sauropods restricted to swampy bogs in order to support their gigantic proportions. No more tail-dragging, lethargic tyrannosaurs needing to warm their cold blood in order to hunt during the day. Feathers adorn most smaller theropods in depictions these days as well, solidifying the fact that birds are directly descended from the dinosaurian lineage. All of these revelations in the field of paleontology have changed our perception of dinosaurs as not just sluggish monsters but loving parents, problem solvers and ultimately the most sucessful species to inhabit the Earth.
I have been fortunate enough to have been born and raised in this age of dinosaur revolution. As a result of this influence from the prehistoric past, my passion for dinosaurs has evolved into a full-blown obsession that I wish to share with the world. My goal is to expose people to new ways of seeing these amazing creatures through both scientific fact and a little bit of conceptual design. These next few pages contain some of my work depicting prehistoric life and how I think these animals would have looked,roaming our Earth, millions of years ago.
