For Valentine’s Day I made this little bird sculpture for my wife. Resin 3D printed body and brass legs. It’s based on some vintage Scandinavian birds she’s been eying.

Ice Age art!
A lovely little horse figurine sculpted from mammoth tusk around 15,000 years ago!
Known as ‘The Little Horse of Lourdes’ it was found in 1886 in the cave of Les Espélugues, Lourdes, Haute-Pyrénées, France. 📷 by me.

Same!
Dinosaur! Hosted by Christopher Reeve (1985). The music, the animation, Jack Horners voice. I watched the vhs tape (taped from broadcast so bad quality) so many times I witnessed it degrading with sound and picture getting worse.

Reply with a piece of palaeoart that deeply influenced you as a child.
I think this cover (and every illustration in it) was the first art I thought was beautiful. Now I loves me some shrink wrapped dinosaurs!

Here’s a sneak peak at another #lego model I’ve had the chance to work on depicting recently published Late Triassic animals, specifically the little amphibian Ninumbeehan!
More details and builds coming soon!

It’s #fossilfriday again and here’s a tiny tailbone from a yet to be identified Triassic specimen I recently prepped. I think I leveled up on prepping those paper-thin fins!

New #paleoart on #FossilFriday: #Tiktaalik sees the world. Discussions of early #tetrapods often focus on limbs and lungs, but major changes also took place in their eyes. Seeing further and clearer than any animal before, they were the first to clearly see sunsets, stars, and the moon. #sciart

'Face of the Moon.' (1797) John Russell was the finest British pastel artist of his time. One of his sitters, the astronomer William Herschel encouraged him to buy a telescope, and with this he produced a number of remarkable pastel drawings of the moon.
