  • Paleo-Art:
    New Animals to Science
  • I feel so honored and lucky enough to have had the chance of working with some of today’s top paleontologists and their incredible teams. There is no way to describe what a great pleasure it is to be the first illustrator to breathe life again to these incredible animals from earth’s majestic past. Just to be one of the first in a group of talented people to look a new species in the eye. I’m very lucky, indeed. Actually, it has been a dream of mine since I was a young boy absorbed in wonderful dinosaur and prehistoric animal books of many years ago. Thinking; how great it would be to help inspire others with my art of these animals like I was so inspired by other artists those many years ago.
    I hope some of you viewing these images (especially in this part of my gallery) will be some what inspired, or at least pleased… and maybe, if we are lucky; you will be transported in your mind sometime else. Please enjoy.
