#ArtAdventCalendar day 4 is from a few years back, one of my dinosaur portraits inspired by 80's hair styling posters. Lambeosaurus. 🐡🎨

My third #artadventcalendar piece this year is my 2021 illustration of a burnt Hell Creek forest. Two stem-chickens (not based on a specific taxon) forage in the ash as a lone tyrant passes on the distance. 🪶🎨🐡 #paleoart

A lonely Kosmoceratops wades through the waters of the marshy Kaiparowits jungle. Also making an appearance: a pair of Mirarce and somewhat hidden Alphadon. #artadventcalendar

Haven't done much pizzaposting lately but I am compelled to share the annual Thanksgiving leftovers pizza.. Brussels sprouts, roast potatoes, tofurky with a pumpkin -spinach sauce and a drizzle of cranberry sauce.

Depraved.

She sees our opossum ornament and asks how much they are (price labels were not up yet). Jennie tells her they're $20.

The lady makes a "who farted" face. "$20? For a piece of wood!?"

Once upon a time I was a nearly prolific illustrator of ancient life forms. Here's a sampling of this 🐡🎨 paleoart from the early 20's.

This is my half-assed solution to the rice cooker's starch geyser FYI

I hope I'm not jinxing this by sharing now since we still need to give them a coat of clear sealant to prevent scratches...

But I'm pretty stoked about our new screen printed wooden ornaments! Six critters to kick them off. Here's the box turtle.

Kroger had snack chips on clearance for $1.75 with surprisingly deep lore (apparently this is the work of a lawn mower company that wanted to do snacks as a side hustle???)

Get a load of the incredible hand-painted and lettered informational panels and activities at Brown County State Park in Indiana... I simply will not brook any attempt to update these.
