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!

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. 😃

For #FossilFriday, #paleoart of a hatchling Ankylosaurus that has yet to develop bony body armour. Fossils show that armoured dinosaurs lacked bony scutes in early life, implying that their toughened hides may not have been primarily adapted to deter predators. #dinosaur #paleontology #sciart #naturalhistory #digitalart #ankylosaurus

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.
