    In 2023 Dom Coyote, the Bristol Old Vic, and Dr Jakob Vinther (Uni of Bristol) produced THE COLOUR OF DINOSAUR musical show for children, which featured my life-size model of Psittacosaurus. It is still going strong!

    The 2022 Korean translation of Locked in Time (Dr Dean Lomax) commissioned me to colourise my 50 greyscale illustrations. Here's "The Mire Siren," showing a family group of Utahraptors becoming trapped in quicksand.

  10. It's FossilFriday! And for my 25 years of palaeoart chronology...

    In 2020 I co-authored the world's first published description of a dinosaur cloaca. Our paper received lots of media attention, here's a screen grab of a punchline by The Late Show with Stephen Colbert...

    Continuing with 2016 and the TetZooCon theme, here's a video from the TetZooCon 2016 palaeoart workshop. After I talked about reconstructing Psittacosaurus, the attendees sculpted their own psittacosaurs. Choosing the winner was tricky!

  21. My 25 years of palaeoart chronology...

    2014 was the year I built the world famous life-size Psittacosaurus. The media called it the world's most accurate dinosaur reconstruction because of the near complete reference fossil. Info to follow today and tomorrow.

    From my 2012 illustrations, for the University of Cambridge's Sedgwick Museum of Earth Sciences, here's Deinonychus. Remember it is 12 years old, so please forgive the teeth and small wings, etc.
