A crop from THE EXECUTIONER'S MEAL, one of 49 artworks I painted for THE SECRET LIVES OF DINOSAURS, written by Dr Dean Lomax - Palaeontologist. It features a Nothosaurus giganteus taking off the head of a Tanystropheus hydroides - yes, there is fossil evidence for this behaviour!

Here are some crops from "Consuming the Fallen," commissioned by The Etches Collection. It features over 50 fossil species from the museum and the Late Jurassic Kimmeridge Clay.

Had a brilliant time with my family at the Lyme Regis Fossil Festival last weekend. So much to see and do! Also pleased (relieved!) to have had a full crowd at my talk on the Sunday afternoon. 😃

A conference sketch from 2015. This was a response to a conversation with Darren Naish, Mathew Wedel and @mike about the idea that apatosaurs might have had weapons or armour on their ventrolateral processes.

In 2011 a bunch of artists were commissioned to create some dinosaur stamp designs for the Royal Mail. It eventually came down to me Vs the great John Sibbick . . . and he won. Here is my Polacanthus design, which they kinda used, but with John's art.
