Happy National Bird Day!
Today we appreciate our feathered friends and raise awareness about their protection.
A bird in flight is poetry in motion.

Thanks Matt!🙏

I'm trying to think of marketing my holiday cards ... I have a bunch!

It’s that time of year again when I’d like to share my annual scientific holiday card. I’ve been wanting to create a card depicting Ice Megafauna and connect it with the holiday season. Here’s what I came up with … Happy holidays and all the best for the new year! #SciArt #PaleoArt #Anatomy #mammoth

I’m pleased to announce that I’ll be offering my carbon dust course again in the new year. You’ll have the option of taking a 1 day workshop or a 6 week course. If you're interested, check out the link below.

Today is National/World Walrus Day! These semi-aquatic mammals, which are a type of seal, share similar bones with humans. Their specialized forelimbs have evolved for swimming.

I just completed my carbon dust course offered by the Lyme Art Association. Walrus mandible which is still in progress. If you’re interested in learning this technique, I’ll be offering a 6 week course and a one day workshop starting in the new January. Stay tuned for more details. #SciArt

Javier, thank you for your kind words.🙏

In the second last week for my carbon dust course offered by the Lyme Art Association Natural Science Illustration Program, students had their choice of surface and subject for their final project. I joined them and illustrated a walrus skull which is still in progress #SciArt, #CarbonDust #walrus

I had my students recreate an old master carbon dust illustration. I copied this surgical illustration originally created by Russell Drake in 1931 as a demo for my carbon dust course offered by the @lymeartassocation Natural Science Illustration Program. #SciArt, #MedArt  #CarbonDust

Happy Halloween! To get into the Halloween spirit, I created this warty pumpkin illustration as a demo for my carbon dust course offered by the Lyme Art Association Natural Science Illustration Program. #SciArt, #NaturalScienceIllustration #CarbonDust

It’s Reptile Awareness Day! An annual day dedicated to raising public awareness about the importance of reptiles, which includes snakes, lizards, crocodiles, and turtles, to promote their importance and conservation.

Thanks for your kind words.

Happy [belated] National Fossil Day! Before CT scanning and photogrammetry, fossil were hand drawn like this series of traditional carbon dust illustrations. I miss those days. Photos of my illustrations alongside the actual fossils #NationalFossilDay, #SciArt, #PaleoArt, #paleontology, #CarbonDust

It’s #WorldAnatomyDay today. Here’s an illustration depicting the anatomy of antlers. Fall is deer breeding season which is a time when antlers harden for buck’s to use in fighting and establishing dominance. #WorldAnatomyDay, #anatomy, #SciArt, #antler #deer

One week until my carbon dust course starts. There are still some spots available. This technique combines drawing and ‘painting’ using a dry brush to apply layers of ground dust to achieve realistic 3D illustrations. #SciArt, #NaturalScienceIllustration #CarbonDust

Cassowaries Have Their Day! World Cassowary Day draws attention and awareness about these amazing large flightless birds from Indonesia, Papua New Guinea and NE Australia. Here’s the skull of a Southern Cassowary (Casuarius casuarius). #SciArt #SciComm #cassowary, #WorldCassowaryDay, #skull

Today is World Rhino Day!

Sumatran rhinos are the smallest of all rhinos. They are also one of the rarest and most endangered mammals in the world with fewer than 100 individuals left in the wild.
